Energy Tracking's Internet enabled solid state ANSI C12.20 meter and its leading edge application Energy@Desktop can be applied to suite your specific needs. For pulse metering applications, the web enabled pulse logger will meet your needs and works with the Energy@DeskTop application as well.

Energy Management: 
Get energy information right at your desktop. Access interval data, consumption, demand and more... The Energy@Desktop shows the information in a chart and spreadsheet format, stores load profile and usage data and more.

SubMetering:
Sub meter tenant space, production and manufacturing energy usage.

Eliminate modems:
This advanced electric meter is able to send data over the Internet using file transfer protocol (ftp), email or can be accessed via its web server. Lower your metering costs by using the existing Internet connection or local area network, avoiding PSTN based networks, maintenance of telephone lines and eliminate costs for dedicated phone lines.

Load Curtailment Projects:
This smart meter is an ideal product for Demand Response / Emergency Demand Reduction Programs.

Remote Meter Reading:
Automate and get fast accurate data over the Internet. The data is sent via ftp, email or accessed directly from the meter's web server.

Benefits:

• Better management of total energy usage.
• Get details about the amount and timing of your energy use, so you can adjust accordingly and save money.
• Advanced meter data can be used to compare costs between competing utilities and to arrange for bulk-rate purchasing.
• Identify and implement operational strategies to control load factor, peak load requirements and reduce energy waste.
• Understand and improve consumption patterns.
• Measure and verify anticipated energy savings from energy efficiency modifications.
• Secure a better pricing from the retail energy markets.
• Highlight anomalies in electric consumption.
• Interface the meter to a smart IP enabled thermostat for automatic demand and energy reduction. The meter pays for itself, simply by using this option.

Demand Reduction

• Identify and assess on a real time basis the fiscal impact of the energy consumption.
• Advanced notification via email of a higher peak demand being set.
• Instantaneous real time access to measurement and metered data via the Internet or local network.
  

Nowadays, majority of buildings have a network already present. Our meter’s connection to a network is identical to that of a PC or laptop. There are 3 ways energy usage data can be accessed.

1. Connecting to the meter’s Web Server provides immediate access to data.

2. Meter can be set up to send reports periodically via email.

3. Meter can be set up to send reports periodically via ftp.

Acquiring data in real time from a network enabled meter has many advantages and provides significant benefits. Real-time data provides a greater understanding of the dynamic response characteristics of energy usage. Acquiring real-time data enables proactive management as after-the-fact does not help.

The most important is its ability to send frequent reports has no impact on communication costs, unlike the telephone-modem based meters. For example, load profile data can be dispatched every 5 minutes.

Certain applications such as tenant billing only require once a month reporting which can also be setup in the meter, but knowing that you can generate or provide more frequent reporting has value in the sense that such reporting can prevent end of month ‘shock’ should energy usage go unexpectedly high. The meter can be setup to report to (cc:) tenants that would benefit from this.

If the meter sends an email warning of a peak demand threshold being crossed, you can take immediate action to avert this.

It is by far simpler and faster to use a network than using dial up modem and because the meter is network enabled, it can talk to other devices such as an ip enabled thermostat and help reduce demand costs. Many corporations have an IT department and use their own software. The ability to easily interface with our meter over a network and capture data in XML provides additional value.

Using the interval logging capabilities of our meter, you can identify where, when and how much energy is used over time. You can chart and print energy consumption by months, weeks, days, hours or sub intervals.

You can identify when the highest peak demand occurred and the time at which it occurred.

You can compare energy consumption on various days to identify anomalies and review changes in operation. You can also perform kWh v/s kVARh, kW v/s kWh analysis or compare energy usage of multiple sites.

In addition to being a revenue grade meter, this advanced meter has the ability to directly interface to an ip enabled thermostat. Whenever, the kW threshold is exceeded, it will cycle the air conditioner’s compressor enabling demand reduction.

The meter has two outputs that are optically isolated and can be triggered based on user defined kW threshold values. The ability to measure and control external load enables a low cost energy management solution.

Our Energy@DeskTop software application has a tariff module which allows you to enter energy and demand costs for weekdays, weekend and holidays. You can then generate and print a bill based on the tariff.
