Energy

Energy data and operational optimisation.

Find out where and when energy turns into cost. DTWT combines metering, submetering and data analysis with a technical assessment of the next steps — from peak management to PV/BESS feasibility. Measure and understand consumption first; only then decide on optimisation, PV, a battery or an EMS.

What you come to us with

  • We don't know which equipment uses the most energy.
  • We only have one bill for the whole site, no data per area or machine.
  • Power peaks occur and we don't know why.
  • We don't know whether our contracted capacity is set sensibly.
  • We're considering PV or a battery but lack good input data.
  • We need to meter several supply points and bring the data into one view.
  • We have meters, but the data is hardly ever evaluated.

What DTWT can do

Energy monitoring

Metering electrical consumption and power so you can see not only how much energy is used, but when.

  • electrical consumption metering
  • load profiles
  • interval data
  • long-term monitoring
  • dashboard and reporting

Submetering

Sub-metering where one bill for the whole site is not enough. The scope and type of meters are defined in the specific design.

  • metering individual equipment or parts of the operation
  • splitting consumption between buildings or processes
  • identifying significant loads

Peak demand monitoring and analysis

Tracking 15-minute maximum demand and its causes. The result is a basis for decisions, not an automatic intervention in operations.

  • identifying power peaks
  • time correlation with equipment or processes
  • a basis for changing how the operation is run
  • a basis for deciding on peak shaving

EMS concept / energy monitoring architecture

A design for how energy monitoring and control should work — not an off-the-shelf product.

  • data architecture
  • metering points
  • data collection
  • dashboard
  • alarms
  • integration logic
  • basic automation

PV / BESS feasibility

A technical assessment before the investment: whether, and at what size, PV or a battery makes technical sense for the given load profile.

  • load profile
  • power peaks
  • self-consumption
  • indicative sizing
  • scenario comparison
  • battery suitability for peak shaving or higher self-consumption

Off-grid and remote equipment

An energy view of equipment off the grid or at remote sites.

  • energy monitoring of off-grid equipment
  • combining metering, local control and communication
  • technical assessment of power supply for remote equipment

Data first. Then technology.

PV, a battery or an EMS should not be designed from the annual bill alone. An annual total doesn't show when demand occurs, how high the peaks are or how the operation behaves over a day and a week. The technology decision should rest on interval data.

  1. 01
    Get interval data.
  2. 02
    Identify consumption and peaks.
  3. 03
    Understand the operating pattern.
  4. 04
    Build scenarios.
  5. 05
    Only then design the technology or the investment.

How DTWT works

  1. 01
    Input data

    Bills, existing metering, equipment and operating hours.

  2. 02
    Metering strategy

    What is already metered and what has to be added so the data answers the operation's question.

  3. 03
    Data collection

    Submetering, existing meters or integration into one data collection.

  4. 04
    Analysis

    Load profiles, peaks and how they relate in time to equipment and processes.

  5. 05
    Options

    Operational optimisation, monitoring, EMS concept or PV/BESS feasibility.

  6. 06
    Next project

    If an investment makes technical sense, it follows as a separate project with its own scope.

Not every project goes through all six steps — sometimes analysing existing data is enough, sometimes metering has to be added first.

Technical foundation

Energy is not an isolated product but a layer on top of metering, data and automation. It builds on the competences of DTWT's other pillars.

Metering and I&C

Instrumentation, PLC and SCADA — the base that energy data comes from.

Industrial →

Data from remote points

IoT and telemetry for supply points and equipment spread across a site or beyond it.

Connect →

Dashboards and reporting

Overviews, reporting and workflows on top of the data, so it is evaluated, not just stored.

Digital →

Off-grid technical systems

Experience with power supply, metering and communication for equipment off the grid.

These are the competences Energy builds on — not a list of completed energy projects.

Tools

When Energy makes sense

A good fit when

  • consumption is significant or unclear,
  • there are several pieces of equipment, buildings or metering points,
  • power peaks occur,
  • you are planning PV or a battery,
  • you need data for an investment decision,
  • existing metering is not being used.

Not the right starting point when

  • you only want a quote for installing PV,
  • you need an energy performance certificate,
  • you need a statutory energy audit,
  • you expect guaranteed savings without metering.
