Smart and Sub-Metering | Utility Team

Energy management and monitoring go hand in hand. To identify where energy usage can be reduced, first, you must understand the consumption profile of an organisation.

The more detailed intelligence you can source, the more informed you are when making decisions about energy efficiency solutions. With decades of experience deploying sub-metering across a vast array of businesses and sectors, we know how to map a customer's site and deploy sub-metering to generate an accurate energy usage profile. By combining this energy intelligence with our Energy Insights expertise, we can develop energy efficiency programmes that deliver commercial and environmental benefits.

Energy Insights

By mapping the energy architecture of your site or portfolio, we then strategically deploy our sub-metering solution to harvest granular energy data. We then develop a comprehensive understanding of your energy usage and build detailed energy insights. These identify and help eradicate energy waste and underpin strategic commercial decisions.

Cost Savings

Once we have a detailed understanding of your energy consumption profile, our Energy Consultants will support you in the identification, development and implementation of solutions and technologies to improve your energy efficiency. This, combined with our energy procurement expertise, means we can drive down energy costs and carbon footprint to deliver a positive commercial impact for our customers.

Environmental Impact

Using sub-metering gives us access to a deep level of energy intelligence. Combining our decades of energy experience and this intelligence enables us to create bespoke energy efficiency solutions for customers. These solutions reduce energy consumption and deliver tangible environmental benefits, helping our customers reduce carbon emissions and move towards becoming net zero.

"Energy efficiency and carbon reduction are fundamental to our customer's long term sustainability plans. We knew that by combining our energy efficiency expertise with Centrica Business Solutions' Panoramic Power™ technology, we would be able to provide our customers with an invaluable Energy Insights solution."

What is sub-metering?

Sub-metering is the deployment of individual meters across your site to monitor and measure the electrical consumption and performance of specific equipment within a building. This can be used on assets such as heating, ventilation and air conditioning, chiller plant, manufacturing equipment an lighting.

The are multiple benefits to deploying sub-metering. These include:

Identification of energy waste
Improve process efficiency
Identification of poor on-site energy management
Granular energy data for specific equipment
Reduction in risk of equipment failure
