FAQ’s
Frequently asked questions
How do I get started?
To begin, please contact us via phone or email, or set up a call through our website. We’ll discuss your priorities and provide you with various options tailored to your needs.
What are the first steps in energy saving?
The foundation of energy savings lies in understanding your consumption patterns. We recommend starting with data from your existing meters to identify where the biggest savings can be made. From there, we can formulate a plan to target the equipment contributing most to your energy use.
How many energy monitors will I need?
The number of monitors required will depend on the size of your operation, including the number of buildings and pieces of large equipment you have. Typically, it’s advisable to monitor each meter and significant piece of equipment or building.
How do I get the data from my existing meters?
We will show you how to appoint your Data Collector and Data Aggregator. Your meter will then be adopted or upgraded to automatically share half hourly data. Your supplier can then provide accurate billing and we can integrate the data into our reports for detailed analysis.
What is included in your service?
Our service includes the installation of all necessary hardware to access your energy data. You’ll have access to live data via our app, reports through the web app, and receive energy alerts, along with weekly and monthly reports via email. We also offer monthly meetings to discuss your data and progress.
How much does it cost?
The approximate cost is £150 per meter for the initial set-up, followed by a monthly fee of £2.50 per meter.
How long does installation take?
Installation of each enclosure and gateway, supporting up to 28 monitors, takes about 3 hours.
Will the electricity need to be turned off for installation?
Typically, electricity does not need to be disconnected, but this is determined on a site-by-site basis, with a qualified electrician making the final decision.
What reports do you produce?
You will receive weekly and monthly reports directly to your inbox, covering various energy consumption metrics.
How can I view the data?
Live data is accessible through the app, and detailed reports in hourly, daily, and monthly formats are available on the web app the day after collection. This includes annual statistics and other key performance indicators (KPIs).
Can I download the data?
Yes, consumption data can be downloaded via the hardware dashboard for further analysis.
