Energy metering and monitoring

Monitoring your company’s energy use will allow you to target inefficiency and reduce your energy costs.

To help you do this, we could recommend that you:

Analyse your energy bills
Invoices will tell you how much energy you are using, and what tariff you are paying. Make sure you understand them and that their information is accurate.
See what systems are in place
Do you have enough data available to properly assess how efficiently your company is using energy?
Investigate other metering techniques
New metering systems offer advanced collection and recording techniques and various display options. For large companies, you might need to install sub-meters to get a more detailed idea of what’s going on.
Monitor energy use and improve
Relate the amount of energy you use to likely influencing factors - for example: weather and levels of production. This will help you to better understand how your company is using energy and where it is being wasted.
