In our June newsletter we announced the introduction of Smart Energy Monitoring funding. We are pleased to say that businesses across Staffordshire are already engaging with us as they seek to reduce their energy costs.
This program is funded by Staffordshire County Council. 50% of match funding will be provided to eligible organisations/businesses for the temporary installation of Smart Meters.
Sub-meters will monitor and measure the energy consumption and performance of specific equipment within a building. This can be used on assets such as heating, ventilation, air conditioning, chiller plant, cooling tower pumps, motors, and various manufacturing equipment’s. |
