Data completeness is a score from 0% to 100% that measures billed coverage from each meter’s service start through today. It is the trust signal behind every EnerG metric. This page explains how the score works and what moves it. To fix gaps, see Data completeness in the Data Quality section. For the color legend and status values, see Data and meter fields.

What the score measures

Completeness compares the bills EnerG expects against the bills it has. It counts every month from a meter’s service start date to the current date. Missing bills, gaps, and overlaps lower the score. Complete, non-overlapping coverage raises it.

Meter, building, and portfolio scoring

Completeness rolls up in three layers.
  • Meter level scores one meter from its service start to today.
  • Building level aggregates meter scores across all included meters for the site.
  • Portfolio level averages building coverage for the KPI on Portfolio Home.
A meter excluded from metrics does not drag down the building score. Confirm the Include In Metrics setting when a meter should or should not count.

Why completeness gates benchmarking

EnerG only ranks buildings that meet your organization’s completeness threshold. Buildings below the threshold appear with No Ranking until coverage recovers. This rule protects peer comparisons. A building with three missing months would post an artificially low EUI and distort rankings. Completeness holds it out until the data is trustworthy. The same rule applies before you set baselines, train models, or publish reports. Each needs 12 consecutive months of complete data to qualify.

Common causes of low coverage

  • A utility credential failed, so new bills stopped arriving.
  • A meter was assigned late, so early months never loaded.
  • A provider issued overlapping or corrected bills.
  • A manual meter has no readings for recent months.
Each cause has a fix in the gap investigation workflow.
