ENERGY & WATER USAGE - APPLICATIONS
Energy and Water Efficiency
Qonnectis customers are typically saving between 5%-15% of their utility bills by smart metering and monitoring their energy consumption, with some customers experiencing 40% savings. Quick improvements are often made following discovery of major problems in energy delivery or machinery left running, or long-term water leaks. Ongoing monitoring allows customers to maintain control of their utility spend and incrementally make savings as they make improvements in their internal processes and energy/water use patterns. The Qonnectis alert system allows you to impose limits to energy or water consumption and obtain instant warnings – for example if a pipe burst or power outage has taken place on your site.


Sub-metering
As well as reading the main utility meters, Qonnectis equipment can be installed on internal meters in office buildings and factories. Introducing sub-metering allows you to monitor at a greater level of detail – such as individual floors in an office block or individual production lines in a factory.


Automatic Monitoring & Targeting (aM&T)
For sophisticated aM&T, Qonnectis is able to provide a full solution from meter to desktop. 15-minute and half-hourly data is combined with myMeter web services to get high resolution and easily-accessible information regarding meter use and alerts/exceptions. Qonnectis also integrates with a number of third party aM&T packages.


Bill checking & Energy Procurement
Sometimes the simplest tasks can bring the greatest benefits. Qonnectis can provide impeccable records of meter readings at any time and make historical reads available online. Users can then consolidate this information against their utility bills and validate their bills and utility spend. This can bring significant benefits in terms of bill savings and cash flow.

With full data including profiles, large energy and water users can then provide suppliers with information in order to obtain the best possible energy prices.


Carbon emission monitoring and trading
Qonnectis solutions contribute to minimising carbon emissions and allowing organisations to monitor their output according to their carbon credits. This permits efficient use and trading of carbon credits along with straight-forward data generation for reporting and auditing purposes.


Process improvement & Benchmarking
Qonnectis solutions can be placed on multiple sites in national or multinational organisations, as well as allowing sub-metering within sites. Both enable comparison and monitoring of individual sites or processes. From comparing one production line to another, or one CHP generator site to another, or one retail store to another, considerable savings and efficiencies can be made using the Qonnectis system.


Reporting
Many organisations and managers have significant requirements in terms of reporting and auditing, be it internal reports, government departmental targets, carbon credit tracking, financial audits, and specific legislation such as the Part L Building Regulations. Manual data collection and reporting can be extremely time-consuming and therefore expensive. Qonnectis’ products and services for obtaining and using energy and water data can lessen this burden.
