Energy Monitoring
down to the submeter.

Track site energy use at the submeter level with smart IoT monitoring and machine-learning forecasting. Cut waste, lower utility costs, and plan demand with confidence.

The Brief

Granular visibility across every site load

An industrial facility operator needed granular visibility into energy consumption across multiple site loads at the submeter level to identify waste, reduce utility costs, and improve operational efficiency. The customer also required an intelligent forecasting capability to anticipate future energy demand based on outside weather conditions, time of use, and day of use—enabling smarter scheduling and load management decisions.

The Solution

Metering, gateway, cloud, and forecasting in one loop

From submeter to dashboard — secure data capture, unified visualisation, and machine-learning demand prediction.

01

Multi-point submetering

Smart submeters deployed across site loads including HVAC, lighting, equipment racks, and transmitter loads.

02

Generator integration via Modbus

The generator controller is integrated over Modbus to capture real-time generator performance data alongside energy consumption metrics for a unified site view.

03

Secure gateway transmission

All data is aggregated through a central IoT gateway and transmitted securely over a dedicated network or APN to a cloud IoT platform.

04

Unified energy dashboard

A single dashboard shows generation, solar input, and load consumption, enabling informed energy management decisions across the entire site.

05

ML consumption forecasting

A machine learning model forecasts energy consumption based on outside weather conditions, time of use, and day of use—providing actionable predictions for demand planning and cost optimization.

06

Real-time alerting

Threshold breaches and fault conditions are surfaced on the dashboard as they occur.
