Why meter it

Don't wait for the bill to find the problem.

Most businesses only find out about an energy problem once the bill arrives. Metering at the plug shows you what each appliance is doing, as it happens.

The monthly bill

  • One number, weeks after the fact
  • No idea which equipment is using the power
  • Kit left on overnight and at weekends
  • A struggling compressor only noticed when it fails

Trackpac energy metering

  • Live power use for each appliance
  • Alerts when equipment draws power out of hours
  • Switch equipment off remotely, or on a schedule
  • Plug in and go: no electrician or new wiring

Where it pays for itself

The value is in what the data lets you catch.

Equipment left running

Catch appliances and machinery drawing power overnight or at weekends, when they should be off.

Failing equipment

Spot a compressor or motor drawing more than its baseline, often an early warning sign before it fails.

Retail & hospitality

Watch refrigeration, signage and kitchen equipment across multiple sites from a single dashboard.

ESG & sustainability reporting

Report from real, timestamped usage data instead of estimating from utility bills.

The dashboard

Every reading, live, on one screen.

Each meter gets its own live dashboard, so you can see what an appliance is doing right now and how that compares with yesterday.

  • Live active power, current and voltage
  • Power factor
  • Total energy used, and energy in the last hour
  • Plug state, with on/off history
  • History charts for every reading
  • Export and full API access

How it works

From socket to live readings in three steps.

  1. 1

    Plug it in

    Plug the meter in between the appliance and the socket. No electrician and no new wiring.

  2. 2

    Scan the QR code

    Scan the QR code to add the meter. It reports over LoRaWAN®, so it doesn't depend on your office Wi-Fi.

  3. 3

    Set rules and act

    Get alerts by SMS, email or push when usage looks wrong, and switch equipment off remotely or on a schedule.

FAQ

Energy metering FAQs

How it works, what it measures and how it helps you cut waste.

What is energy metering?

Energy metering refers to the process of measuring and recording the amount of energy consumed by various devices or systems. Trackpac's platform provides detailed insights into energy usage, allowing you to monitor consumption patterns, track real-time data, and analyze historical trends. This helps in optimizing energy efficiency, reducing costs, and making informed decisions about energy management.

How does Trackpac's energy metering work?

Trackpac's energy metering integrates with various sensors and devices to capture real-time energy consumption data. The platform collects and processes this data, presenting it through intuitive dashboards and reports. You can track metrics such as energy usage, cost, and efficiency, and set up custom alerts for unusual consumption patterns or threshold breaches.

Can I monitor energy consumption for multiple devices or locations?

Yes, Trackpac allows you to monitor energy consumption across multiple devices and locations. The platform supports the aggregation of data from various sources, enabling you to view and compare energy usage metrics for different devices or facilities in a unified dashboard.

What types of energy metrics can Trackpac provide?

Trackpac offers a range of energy metrics, including real-time energy usage, historical consumption trends, peak load analysis, cost forecasting, and efficiency insights. You can also set up custom metrics based on your specific needs and monitor factors like energy savings opportunities and comparative usage reports.

How can I use energy metering data to improve efficiency?

By analyzing energy metering data, you can identify patterns and anomalies in energy usage. This allows you to pinpoint areas where energy is being wasted, optimize operational processes, and implement energy-saving measures. Trackpac's platform provides actionable insights and recommendations to help you improve energy efficiency and reduce costs.

Are there any alerts or notifications available for energy usage?

Yes, Trackpac offers customizable alerts and notifications for energy usage. You can set up thresholds for various metrics and receive notifications when these thresholds are breached. This helps you stay informed about unusual consumption patterns and take timely action to address potential issues.

Can I integrate Trackpac’s energy metering with other systems?

Yes. Trackpac offers both forwarding for your data and a full API to pull data from. This allows you to integrate energy metering data with other systems and platforms, enabling seamless data sharing and analysis. By integrating Trackpac with your existing systems, you can enhance data visibility, streamline operations, and improve decision-making processes.

What is peak load analysis and why is it important?

Peak load analysis examines the highest levels of energy consumption over a specific period. Understanding peak load is important because it helps identify periods of excessive demand, which can lead to higher energy costs and strain on the energy system. Trackpac’s platform provides insights into peak load patterns, allowing you to manage and reduce these peaks to optimize energy usage and lower costs.

How can historical energy data benefit my operations?

Historical energy data helps you understand long-term consumption trends and patterns. This information is valuable for forecasting future energy needs, identifying areas for improvement, and evaluating the impact of any energy-saving measures you have implemented. Trackpac’s historical data analysis tools provide insights that can drive strategic decisions and improve overall energy management.

Is Trackpac’s energy metering solution scalable?

Yes, Trackpac’s energy metering solution is designed to be scalable. Whether you’re managing a single device or a large network of devices across multiple locations, the platform can scale to meet your needs. This flexibility ensures that as your requirements grow, Trackpac can continue to provide comprehensive energy monitoring and management solutions.
