Understanding Energy Metering: Why It Matters

Energy metering is the process of measuring and monitoring the consumption of electrical energy in buildings, facilities, or specific equipment. It plays a crucial role in improving energy efficiency, identifying waste, and managing overall utility costs.

Why Use Energy Metering?
Energy meters give building managers, engineers, and facility owners insight into where and how energy is being used. With this data, users can:
• Detect inefficiencies
• Reduce energy costs
• Support sustainability goals
• Monitor tenant or department-specific usage for billing or accountability

Common Applications
Energy metering is used in:
• Commercial buildings for tenant sub-metering
• Industrial facilities to monitor equipment performance
• Schools and hospitals to optimize operational efficiency
• Government and municipal buildings for compliance with energy regulations
