Energy Monitoring system
Energy Monitoring system(EMS) from AEPL will enable energy accounting of your thermal energy consumers. Currently designed and implemented for hot water systems, EMS allows you to conduct baseline assessments and continuously monitor performance of your system through cloud enabled interface. EMS also paves way for 3rd party verification of ESCO projects
Internet of Thermal System
Features:
- Temperature measurement channels (inlet & Outlet)
- Energy Consumption

AEPL’s EMS is enables by the “Internet of Thermal Systems, which is a combination of sensor hardware, communication gateways and backend cloud computing platforms. Each of the layers are independently customizable thus providing a modular approach to monitoring platforms. AEPL’s EMS can be configured to heating, electrical, lighting and cooling loads, thus enabling a centralized monitoring and analytics of plant energy data
