Abstract: A computer-implemented method for monitoring and analyzing energy consumption of at least one industrial building is provided, the method comprising determining a building type specific theoretical energy consumption optimum value (TEO) based on a corresponding modeled building, identifying and grouping parameters contributing to an increased energy consumption of the building due to an actual use of the building (CEC), due to intrinsic characteristics of the building (BEO), due to optimised designated operating conditions in an actual state of the building (OEO), respectively, providing energy contribution rates of the respective parameters, partly by an automatic, and whenever required, periodic retrieval, and periodically graphing the energy consumption of the at least one building via a bar graph starting from the building type specific theoretical energy consumption optimum value and arriving at a current energy consumption of the at least one building by adding the provided single energy consumption rat
