The FEMP M&V Guidelines contain specific procedures for applying concepts originating in the International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP). The IPMVP, formerly the North American Energy Measurement and Verification Protocol, was developed through a collaborative effort involving industry,k government, financial, and other organizations. The IPMVP provides the framework for M&V procedures and addresses issues related to the use of M&V in third-party financed and utility projects.
