Take control of your factory's energy with intelligent sub-metering
Energy Bills Rising. Equipment Failing. No Visibility?
Without sub-metering, you're flying blind. You see one big number on your utility bill, but you don't know which machines are guzzling power, which shifts are wasteful, or when equipment is about to fail. Sub-metering changes everything — giving you real-time visibility, machine by machine, so you can take control.
What Is Sub-Metering?
Sub-metering breaks down your energy usage into detailed segments. Instead of one big number, you get real-time insights into how each part of your factory consumes power.
Top Motivators for Installing Sub-Metering
1. Cost Savings You Can Actually See
- "Where exactly is my energy going?"
- "Why is our bill so high this month?"
Sub-metering gives you granular visibility — pinpoint which machines or departments are energy hogs and take action. If you can save 10–30% just by identifying waste, that's a no-brainer.
2. Preventing Equipment Failure Before It Happens
- Motors running hot?
- Compressors cycling too often?
Detect abnormal patterns before they become breakdowns. Fewer unplanned shutdowns means lower maintenance costs and higher productivity.
3. Justifying Upgrades & Unlocking Incentives
- "Is it worth replacing that old chiller?"
Build business cases with real data for energy-efficient upgrades — and potentially unlock grants or tax incentives.
4. Internal Accountability & Performance
- "Why is Line 2 using twice the power of Line 1?"
Compare shifts, teams, or processes. Transparency encourages better habits and helps you reward efficiency.
5. Compliance & ESG Reporting Made Easy
- Need to report Scope 2 emissions?
- Meeting ISO 50001 standards?
Get the data trail you need — clean, accurate, and audit-ready — without the spreadsheet pain.
6. Peak Demand Management
- "Can we stagger startup times to avoid demand charges?"
Understand and flatten peak loads to slash utility bills and optimize operations.
Why It Pays Off: The Real Benefits
✂️ Cut Energy Waste
Find out exactly where your power is going — and where it's being wasted. Many factories save 10–30% just by identifying and fixing inefficiencies.
🛡️ Prevent Equipment Failure
Catch problems early. Sub-metering reveals unusual energy patterns that often signal wear, overload, or malfunction — before breakdowns happen.
📊 Justify Upgrades
Thinking about replacing that old compressor? Sub-metering gives you the data to back up your case — and may help unlock grants or incentives.
👥 Improve Accountability
Compare shifts, teams, or production lines. Transparency drives better habits and helps you reward efficiency.
✅ Stay Compliant
Need to report carbon emissions or meet ISO standards? Sub-metering provides the data trail you need — clean, accurate, and audit-ready.
⚡ Manage Peak Demand
Avoid costly demand charges by understanding and flattening your power peaks. Sub-metering helps you schedule smarter.
How Energy Portal Helps
Our platform makes sub-metering simple and actionable
Built by an Engineer Who Gets It
Energy Portal was created by Andrew, a UK-based electrical engineer with years of hands-on experience in industrial energy systems. After seeing the same problems again and again — high bills, hidden faults, and no visibility — he built a solution that actually works.
