Energy Conservation Measure (ECM) analysis is a process that involves identifying and evaluating potential opportunities for reducing energy consumption in a building or facility. The objective of ECM analysis is to identify cost-effective solutions for reducing energy consumption, improving energy efficiency, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

There are several analysis tools and software available that can be useful for performing energy conservation measure (ECM) analysis. Here are some of the most commonly used ones:

Energy modeling software: Energy modeling software such as EnergyPlus, eQUEST, and DesignBuilder are commonly used for building energy simulations. These software tools allow you to model the energy performance of a building under various scenarios, including the impact of different ECMs.

Data analytics software: Data analytics software such as Tableau, Microsoft Power BI, and SAS can be useful for analyzing energy data and identifying patterns and trends in energy consumption. This information can then be used to identify potential ECMs.

Measurement and verification (M&V) software: M&V software such as eSight, EnergyCAP, and UtilityModule can be used to track and monitor energy consumption over time. This information can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of ECMs and identify areas for further improvement.

Energy audit software: Energy audit software such as RETScreen, Energy Audit Tool (EAT), and Energy Grader can be useful for identifying potential energy savings opportunities in buildings and facilities. These software tools provide a systematic approach to energy audits and help identify low-cost and no-cost ECMs.

Financial analysis software: Financial analysis software such as RETScreen, HOMER Energy, and LBNL's Cost Effectiveness Tool can be used to evaluate the economic feasibility of ECMs. These software tools can help determine the payback period, internal rate of return, and net present value of different ECMs.

The choice of which analysis tool or software to use depends on the specific needs and requirements of the ECM analysis. It's recommended to consult with an experienced energy professional to determine the most appropriate tools and methods for your specific project.
