The Importance of Energy Submetering

Energy costs are on the rise, and as companies take a stab at reducing their utility costs and inefficiency, the first look is energy usage and changes to consumption in order to maintain efficiency standards. The cost of utilities at any scale of a building can cost businesses thousands, even hundreds of thousands, of dollars per year. Submetering gives insight into data, down to a circuit level to visualize water, gas, and electric usage.

Information is Power

There are many benefits to submetering and the ability to access real-time data, to better manage energy consumption and cost. The short- and long-term benefits of submetering range from immediately providing visibility and insight into energy consumption throughout commercial and residential buildings. This allows anyone visualizing the data to plan for improving building efficiency goals and standards.  Submetering benefits tenants, buildings owners, developers, etc. by identifying inefficient and broken equipment that’s linked to unnecessary energy usage. Improving energy efficiency in existing buildings, factories, and warehouses is critical to understanding building performance. A critical factor for buildings to reduce over-consumption and inefficiency, is to consistently receive that accurate minute-by-minute data about all machinery and equipment throughout an entire facility. 

The HOTDROP

Using innovative and cost-effective technology allows companies across a range of businesses and commercial industries to gain relevant and timely insights into their buildings energy usage. Sigflow's HOTDROP can also be used to provide real-time energy usage for large industrial machines and generators. With 3200 readings per second graphed over a year, customers are better able to identify anomalies within the asset and improve their preventative maintenance standards and scheduling.
