# Analytics

> Visualize utility consumption and trends across your portfolio.

<Tip>
  Need help in this area? See [Analytics FAQ](/docs/platform/analytics/faq).
</Tip>

Open [**Analytics**](https://dash.nectarclimate.com/analytics/consumption) in the sidebar to open the mega panel, then choose a Quick Access or commodity view. Analytics has no separate overview page of charts — the mega panel is how you land on a dashboard.

## Quick Access

The Analytics mega panel’s **Quick Access** section links to cross-commodity views:

<CardGroup cols={3}>
  <Card title="Consumption" icon="chart-line" href="/docs/platform/analytics/consumption">
    Aggregate usage across all commodities.
  </Card>

  <Card title="EUI & Intensity" icon="ranking-star" href="/docs/platform/analytics/intensity">
    Rank sites by energy use per square foot and spot outliers across your portfolio.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Custom dashboards" icon="table-columns" href="/docs/platform/analytics/custom-dashboards">
    Saved reports across your portfolio.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

For portfolio-level cost analysis, use [**Cost Management**](/docs/platform/cost-management/overview).

## By Commodity

The mega panel’s **By Commodity** section links to full dashboards for each primary utility type:

* [Electricity](/docs/platform/analytics/electricity)
* [Gas](/docs/platform/analytics/gas)
* [Water](/docs/platform/analytics/water)
* [Waste](/docs/platform/analytics/waste)
* [Fuel](/docs/platform/analytics/fuel)

On the [Consumption](/docs/platform/analytics/consumption) page, summary sections for the selected commodities also appear for your current filters.

## Saved views

Save any filter configuration as a named view so you can return to it later without reconfiguring filters each time. On any analytics page, click **Save view** in the toolbar after setting your filters. Saved views appear on the Home **Favorites** card — not as Quick Access cards in the Analytics mega panel.

* **Create** — Set your filters (date range, sites, commodity), then click **Save view** and give it a name
* **Access** — Return from [**Home**](https://dash.nectarclimate.com/) → **Favorites**, or open the saved view’s URL to share it with teammates
* **Delete** — Remove a saved view from the Home Favorites card (use **Manage**)

Saved views store the full filter state including date range, commodity, and site selections.

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What date ranges can I analyze?">
    Analytics supports flexible date ranges with built-in presets like **Last 12 Months**, **Year to
    Date (YTD)**, and **Custom**. You can define any arbitrary start and end date. “This year” and
    similar presets follow your company’s fiscal year start. Consumption also offers presets such as
    last 24 months.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Can I export analytics data?">
    Yes. Each analytics page includes an **Export** dropdown (PDF / CSV) for the underlying chart
    data. For bulk portfolio exports, use [Data Export](/docs/platform/data-export/overview).
