EcoNet Power Management System

LoadingAdd to my saved searches

EcoNet is a cloud based energy and power management system which controls energy demand between the welfare facilities and the site generator. Using sensors throughout the cabins, the wireless system monitors energy demand in real-time and a receiver sits inside each cabin to isolate circuits and turn off equipment as and when required.

By controlling and reducing the baseline energy output to its internal appliances such as electric radiators, hot water heaters and drying room dehumidifiers, a reduced baseline power supply is implemented. This means a smaller site generator is required (60Kva compared to 100 Kva) saving cost, fuel and carbon emissions.

Due to the sites off grid status and sensitive environmental location, energy efficiency is key to the success of the project. By being able to implement such a simple and effective monitoring system into the mobilisation of site, the site is able to innovate by viewing and reviewing the data produced to further improve energy efficiency as the project develops.
