Give an example of a data collection and analysis project you have conducted.

In my previous role as a sustainability intern, I conducted a data collection and analysis project to assess the energy consumption of our organization. I started by collecting data on electricity usage, gas usage, and water consumption from various departments and facilities. I then analyzed the data using software tools to identify areas of high energy consumption and opportunities for improvement. Based on my analysis, I recommended implementing energy-saving measures such as installing motion sensor lights and replacing outdated equipment. These recommendations resulted in a 15% reduction in energy consumption and significant cost savings for the organization.

In my previous role as a sustainability intern, I conducted a data collection and analysis project to assess the energy consumption of our organization. I used tools like Excel and energy monitoring software to collect and analyze data on electricity usage, gas usage, and water consumption from various departments and facilities. By comparing historical data and identifying patterns, I discovered that our office building had high energy consumption during non-working hours. This led me to investigate further and I found that the HVAC system was not properly programmed. I worked with the facilities team to adjust the programming and also recommended installing programmable thermostats to optimize energy usage. These interventions resulted in a 15% reduction in energy consumption and significant cost savings for the organization.

In my previous role as a sustainability intern, I conducted a comprehensive data collection and analysis project to assess the energy consumption of our organization. I collaborated with the facilities team to install energy monitoring devices in different departments and facilities, collecting real-time data on electricity usage, gas usage, and water consumption. I used advanced data analysis tools such as Python and Tableau to analyze the data and visualize trends. Through this analysis, I identified a significant energy waste during non-working hours in our office building. After consulting with the facilities team, we discovered that the HVAC system was not properly programmed to adjust the temperature when the building was unoccupied. I proposed adjusting the programming and also recommended implementing energy-saving measures such as installing motion sensor lights and replacing outdated equipment. I coordinated with the facilities team to implement these interventions, and we saw a 15% reduction in energy consumption and significant cost savings for the organization. This project not only showcased my data collection and analysis skills but also my ability to collaborate with cross-functional teams and implement sustainable solutions.
