Real Time Monitoring
Reduce your Carbon Footprint
Monitoring Systems
The challenge
The purpose of Automatic Monitoring and Targeting (AM&T) is to give an organisation a full understanding of exactly what energy is being used, when, what for, and what influences there are which affect consumption. By viewing energy use in real time and by linking consumption to variables such as external and internal temperature you get a clear understanding of how energy is consumed and how changing circumstances can significantly alter consumption. In particular, AM&T will identify if there are signs of avoidable waste and will present opportunities to reduce it. The Carbon Trust has undertaken several studies on the effectiveness of AM&T, and quotes carbon reductions of 12%.
Implementing an AM&T system is a quick and efficient way of responding to these pressures by cutting energy consumption. Most businesses can achieve 10 - 15% reductions in their energy bills and with a little effort can maintain savings of up to 25%. This wasted energy represents not only a significant cost but contributes to the UK's immense carbon footprint. The Government estimates it costs UK businesses £5 billion per year and releases millions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere.
An AM&T system will help you save money and help save the planet; its wide scale adoption will make a significant difference. AM&T is the collection, interpretation and reporting of energy use information in order to identify ways to improve performance and, once improvements have been made, to ensure that optimal performance is maintained and new opportunities for improvement can be identified.
