CASE STUDY: Water leak in car wash
The client owning a network of truck wash service centers decided to invest in a smart metering pilot project due to high energy bills. Our task was to detect wastage and reduce the cost of operating the client.
After the systems were implemented on the main electricity, water and gas meters, as well as the sub-water meter and truck wash calorimeter, an abnormal condition was detected almost immediately. Progress data from the water meter for the dishwasher showed a constant leak rate of 1.

Energy Monitoring for Green Buildings part I
Knowing how a building works is important to monitor energy use in order to reduce energy consumption, operating costs and its environmental impact. The british BREEAM protocol and the american LEED protocol certify Green Buildings based on their various sustainable qualities and the reduction of overall energy consumption. In order to gain the biggest possible amount of points, a thoroughly done energy monitoring solution is crucial.
The number of credits a Green Building has in the LEED and BREEAM certifications, gives various advantages linked to the higher property value for building owners and developers, increased occupancy rates and rent levels.
