There are many reasons why a gas supply would need to be upgraded at a site from a change of tenancy and use, to a refurbishment and expansion which requires additional capacity.

A check to confirm that the gas connection pipe can deliver a customer’s required maximum hourly load. As part of this check, an engineer will check the pressure and ECV size.
There are several reasons why a business would want to look at a sub-metering solution, from climate change legislation and the need to be more environmentally responsible, through to production cost monitoring, or commercial tenant billing requirements.
Traditional utility bill analysis uses information that is too historical to be of benefit. Bills arrive 30-45 days after usage and are too aggregated to be of any real benefit.
Sub metering will therefore allow an organisation to address this information gap, providing granular visibility of energy use, that will allow them to drill down into a site’s consumption and effect operations past a primary billing meter.
Also known as a data logger, it measures your hourly consumption. Automated Meter Reading technology (AMR) is an essential tool in any energy management strategy, it allows you to monitor and track your consumption giving you the evidence you need to transform your business.
It can also be used for accurate automated billing.
