An energy monitoring system is a set of tools and processes linked to energy consumption and carbon emissions that allows you to get the relevant information to support decision making in your organisation. It allows you to manage energy and decarbonisation processes in a clear and reliable way. It allows you to check target achievement and to detect unexpected deviations and react to them.
The energy and carbon monitoring system proposed by Gen0 has many advantages:
It minimises the time spent collecting and analysing energy data.
It allows rapid reaction to deviations in consumption and/or emissions, achieving significant savings.
it helps detect equipment or systems that work when there is no real demand or at non-working hours (nights, weekends, etc.), quantifying the savings potential.
It measures energy performance taking into account all the variables that affect energy consumption, as required by the ISO 50001 standard simplifying future implementation of an energy management system using ISO 50001.
It can verify your savings based on the IPMVP protocol.
It allows you to monitor indicators against your energy and environmental targets.
It is scalable. It can easily grow in the future, adapt to changes in the organization and be easily customized.

Our experience and leadership in this topic shows that there are three critical aspects to an effective energy monitoring system:
The lack of any of these three elements means that the Monitoring System will not be effective and therefore, it will not help to save energy.
If we do not have reliable data, we cannot use data analytics tools to verify the savings of the implemented measures and to detect savings opportunities. We will not know if there are excesses or savings, we will not be able to detect deviations, nor react to excesses.
If we have data and we use the appropriate indicators, but we do not carry out an investigation when deviations appear, we will not be able to detect the cause of the deviations or promote the reaction against them. There will not be a reduction in consumption or emissions.
If we have data and a trained and committed team, but we do not use adequate indicators… We will be wasting our team's time without obtaining the expected results.

We help you to design your measurement and data collection plans to fit with your specific needs. We also help you to install new equipment, when required. It is not about having excessive numbers of meters, but about knowing how to choose what should be measured and monitored in each installation to promote energy savings and the reduction of associated emissions.

We use the most appropriate methodology to establish normalised energy performance indicators. This analysis takes into account the impact of the baseload consumption, as well as all the variables that affect consumption, such as temperature, occupation, production, etc. This allows to calculate the expected energy consumption based on these variables.
Additionally, we help you to boost the effectiveness of this system with customized monitoring dashboards and tools.
The tools developed by Gen0 facilitates energy performance monitoring based on all the significant variables (production, weather, calendar, etc.) and show the savings or excesses in the facility and in all the different areas. The can also show your current carbon footprint and the results from your decarbonisation plan.
If you already have energy performance monitoring software, this can help. Access to data in real time maximises the benefits. Gen0 can help you to get the most of your current software and data, in particular through the use of normalised indicators.

Once we have data and we have developed the appropriate indicators, it is essential to monitor them and react against deviations. Your system can help you detect them, but if they is no investigation and reaction, the system will not be effective. Gen0 offers a consultancy service that includes energy monitoring and periodical reports showing saving opportunities or anomalies detected in your site, collaborating to create a list of opportunities to be implemented in the future to achieve continuous performance improvement.
