10
Why did we install Smart Meters?
Accuracy of information to drive energy reduction through better measurement Smart meters provide the data to inform the energy used across the HCC estate, and in turn carbon emissions. In April 2012 and 2013, HCC had to pay a carbon tax of £1m Smart meters offers a simple, effective method of capturing individual site data to enable better energy management.
11
Monitor Schools encouraged to “self help” Energy 360 Software
On line data analysis tool Up to date information Trend analysis Simple to compare use
