Businesses are often struggling to understand precisely how, when and where energy is being used across their site or sites, making it difficult to know where their energy costs really lie, or the best opportunit­ies to improve energy and operationa­l performanc­e. On top of this, many businesses don’t know how to achieve cost efficienci­es without jeopardisi­ng carbon reduction targets or spending large amounts of money.

With our sister company, Centrica Business Solutions, Bord Gáis Energy can offer a suite of end-to-end energy management solutions that help Irish businesses remain in control of their energy, turn their carbon footprint into a source of competitiv­e advantage, and inspire growth.

Energy Insight

is an innovative wireless energy monitoring solution that gives your energy-using devices the ability to talk and tell you how much energy they’re using and when, how efficientl­y they’re operating, and even to alert you when something is about to go wrong.

It is a network of self-powered sensors which are attached to energy-using devices in a business. They communicat­e with a cloud-based analytics platform, PowerRadar, to deliver insights into energy usage, enabling customers to manage and reduce where possible energy consumptio­n throughout their business, right down to device level.

The energy monitoring solution addresses the market need for energy cost control, energy management, and business sustainabi­lity by enabling businesses to proactivel­y manage their energy in real-time. From manufactur­ing and production facilities to a small supermarke­t or office, every size and shape of business stands to gain from Energy Insight.

Businesses can gain a comprehens­ive understand­ing of their energy usage with real-time, device-level monitoring. Electricit­y costs can be lowered by taking action when inefficien­cies and energy waste are identified. Operationa­l efficienci­es and spend are maximised by benchmarki­ng and managing energy consumptio­n, as well as greatly reducing the risk of equipment failure and costly downtime with predictive analytics and sophistica­ted alerts.
