Solutions for Environment

With rising energy costs there is an increased need to identify utility usage and waste. Take steps in reducing consumption through a remote management Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) solution.

Automatic Meter Reading Background

The traditional utility meter displays energy usage as an accumulation of counts presented to a display, which is used to calculate the monthly bill. It has applications within the electricity, gas and water utility industries for domestic, commercial and industrial applications. Sub metering is often used within a building, retail or industrial facility where it is desirable to measure power consumption for specific equipment, locations or sub-level accounts

Business challenge

With rising energy costs and environmental pressures through the Climate Change Levy, there is a growing need to reduce power consumption. Reducing losses and waste, and adopting power efficient products and technology can achieve this utilising remote management.

However, since power losses are not easy to identify, it is difficult to determine the key culprits whether they are human users or power-hungry devices. In many cases it is difficult to store energy e.g. electricity, which must be generated to fulfill immediate demand. Predicting usage remains a key issue in an industry where downtime is unacceptable, which is made difficult by slow access to the remote meter readings.

Scalable Automatic Meter Reading Solutions

Automatic Meter Reading or "smart metering" can be as simple as a central application that polls the remote utility meter using protocols such as IEC 1107. Pulse outputs from the meter can be monitored externally as part of wider monitoring solution where reducing energy usage is key. A wider smart metering monitoring system determines usage over time, identifies peaks, compares sites and correlates use with offending devices and people
