Energy logging for planning and project approval

Before installing new charge points, heat pumps, or PV system extensions, you need to know how much electrical capacity is actually available at your site — and your grid operator may require a formal load profile before approving the project. Accurate measurement is the foundation: it tells you what is possible, and it gives the grid operator what they need.

What the data gives you:

• A detailed load profile of your supply, measured over days or weeks.
• Charge point planning — know how many your existing supply can support before you install.
• Capacity assessment for heat pumps, PV system extensions, or any new high-load equipment.
• Submission-ready reports in the format your grid operator expects.

Energy logging for energy efficiency

Energy logging is the foundation of any serious efficiency programme — you cannot reduce what you do not measure. An energy logger gives you the data to identify exactly where, when, and how much energy is being wasted.

What you can do with the data:

• Identify opportunities for energy savings across the site.
• Pinpoint waste — when and where energy is being consumed unnecessarily.
• Quantify total electricity usage as a baseline for improvement.
• Prioritise the interventions with the highest return on investment.

Energy logging to verify electricity bills

If you suspect your electricity bill does not match your actual consumption, energy logging gives you the proof. A short measurement period is often enough to identify metering errors, incorrect tariff classifications, or peak demand charges that do not reflect real usage.

What you can verify:

• Total consumption matches what you are being charged for.
• Peak demand charges (kVA) are calculated correctly.
• Power factor charges are justified by your equipment loads.

Energy logging for backup power and renewable energy

Before installing solar, batteries, or backup power, you need accurate data on what you actually consume. A logged load profile lets you size the system correctly — avoiding both undersized installations that fail under load and oversized systems that waste capital.

What the data tells you:

• Determine the inverter and generator size required for reliable backup power.
• Determine the battery storage capacity required for your specific backup-time needs.
• Check grid power quality — verify that voltage fluctuations and grid conditions are within range for grid-tied inverters.
• Identify solar potential — quantify projected savings and self-consumption from a planned installation.
