Why It Pays to Remotely Measure Energy Consumption

Once a year your electricity supplier checks your meter. Often people are not at home or just don't want to let somebody in their house. Personnel in charge of meter-checking cost millions each year; an amount naturally packed in to your electricity bill.
Large companies often change their electricity supplier many times a day because of the liberalized electricity market.

Electricity is already being traded on stock exchanges. Its price differs up to 1000%. Prices differ depending on season, weather, daytime, and network load. This is pretty new for private users who usually buy their electricity at a fixed price over a long period.
Everybody knows that more electricity is consumed during the day than in the night. As a result, electricity during the night is less expensive for providers. Unfortunately, the price difference cannot be taken advantage of because electric meters don't distinguish between night and day. This might sound very boring for private consumers, but not for companies. For large electricity consumers, the meter must be checked many times a day.

ENAiKOON has developed a technology exactly for these circumstances. The ENAiKOON remote-27 drastically reduces personnel costs by measuring the exact consumption of electricity. This information can then be sent to the provider and/or consumer nearly in real time.

Using this method, companies can decide at what time to use their most electricity-demanding applications. The difference becomes very noticeable when you start paying less than half of what you currently pay.

This way high quantity users can reduce their electricity bill by thousands of euros each year. The use of ENAiKOON remote-27 creates a whole new distribution strategy for providers. They can now create individual offers for their customers. In the near future, it will most likely be possible to change your supplier every day.

Another advantage for the provider is that the ENAiKOON remote-27 is able to measure the pressure in the oil-cooled high-voltage wires and can therefore give the provider early warning via GSM in the case of damage and/or black outs.

There are countless new applications for private consumers. For instance, landlords can precisely measure the amount of electricity being used in their rental apartments.
