Smart Meters
How can a smart meter help your business?
Smart Meters provide a clear and accurate view of your energy use. Smart meters signal the end for estimated bills and meter readings, giving you accurate information on the quantity of electricity and
gas being used. Better information means better management – and greater efficiency for your business.
Smart meters are the next generation of electricity and gas meters
They will bring about the end of estimated bills and meter readings, and provide customers and energy suppliers with accurate information on the amount of electricity and gas being used.
Smart meters will empower customers to make choices on how much energy they use. Suppliers will install two-way communication systems that display accurate real-time information on energy use in the home to the consumer and back to the energy supplier.
How are Smart Meters different?
You could save money, energy and time!
Also, unlike traditional meters, Smart Meters are read remotely. This means you won’t need to answer the door to the meter readers, fill in a card or even provide readings online.
Smart Meters will provide you with much more information on your energy consumption allowing you to be more fuel efficient and save money.
An end to estimated bills! You will only be billed for the energy you’ve used – giving you more control and potentially saving you money. It will make it easier for you to manage your payments and monitor how much you owe.
Whatever business you represent, Industrial Manufacturer, Commercial, Retail or Service Industry, Local Authority orHealthcare Provider – energy overheads are a major factor in effectively managing the costs of operating your business.
Customers have realised ENERGY REDUCTIONS of up to 27% within twelve months of installing edd:e on their premises.
Reduce your carbon footprint
Utilitywise recognises that reducing overall energy spend is about more than securing a keen supply contract unit rate; reducing consumption is key. Edd:e has been proven to allow clients to save up to 30% of their site consumption through the identification of waste.
At a time when energy costs are constantly changing and environmental concerns regarding global warming are putting economic and political pressure on commercial and public sector organizations to reduce CO2 emissions, there is a clear need for intelligent monitoring products to enable organizations to identify exactly how, where and when power is being consumed.
Whilst we are able to offer smart metering or AMR in isolation, the key benefit of Eddie is the granularity of the information and reporting provided. Smart meters alone typically only provide information relating to the total aggregated energy consumption within a building. They are rarely able to drill down to individual application levels, e.g. equipment & appliances, therefore limiting management knowledge and decision making ability regarding where, when and how electricity is being consumed on the premises.
Where Edd:e differs is in its ability to report on specific distribution boards, circuits and even appliances, thereby providing clients the means to make truly informed energy efficiency decisions.
edd:e will enable you to run your business with much greater efficiency by providing you with the decision making tools to:
- Identify where, when & how energy is being consumed on site
- Identify unusual, unexpected or above average levels of consumption
- Set “acceptable” tolerances and trigger alerts if a particular consumption exceeds expectations or budget
- Target sites, geographical areas or employees to an improved level of energy management
- Generate cost improvements and reduce your environmental impact
- Benefit from electricity financial savings
- Reduce your carbon footprint.
