168 utilities across 23 states rely on Technical Reference Manuals to plan $10 billion in energy savings. But TRMs are stuck in PDFs — bloated, error-prone, and agonizing to collaborate on. trim.energy replaces them with a live, shared formula environment.
Regulators and utilities pour millions into maintaining static PDF manuals and manually retyping formulas into plans. Past attempts to digitize just put PDF pages on web pages — solving nothing.
Each state's TRM is a massive PDF that takes months to update and years to get approved. Finding a single formula means searching through hundreds of pages.
Every planning cycle, consultants hand-copy TRM formulas into new documents. Each transcription introduces errors that cascade through cost-benefit analyses.
Thousands of measure permutations crammed into spreadsheets with cryptic variable names. No one can trace a formula back to its source assumptions.
Regulators and utilities spend hundreds of millions on consultants each year to maintain TRMs, produce Potential Studies, and write DSM Plans — much of it on repetitive formula work.
trim.energy transforms how utilities, regulators, and consultants collaborate on energy savings formulas.
Our patented graph database architecture enables integrating debate, update & application of formulas across measures and states — all in real-time.
Write formulas directly within trim.energy to build Potential Studies and DSM Plans without retyping. Templates included, customizable by users.
Multidimensional formula language reduces the number of formulas by 99% compared to spreadsheets. GPU-offloaded calculation engine handles vast permutations.
All variables expressed in plain English. Navigate from any formula to its dependencies for each permutation. Compare formulas across measures and states.
GitHub-style version management makes the update history of each formula crystal clear. Robust permissioning with SOC 2 certification.
Useable inside ChatGPT and Claude for AI assistance researching and writing formulas. AI converts 23 states' TRMs into the patented graph database & UI.
2 granted patents on the graph-based architecture that makes cross-state, cross-measure formula comparison practical.
Built with a multidimensional formula language, with GPU-accelerated calculation at scale.
Business development led by the former head of utility consulting at Guidehouse (acquired for $5B) and leading NJ firms.
