Instead of us making up a lot of 'canned' questions, here's your chance to ask anything you like. We try to answer all questions within 24 hours.
If you've a question about your installation or business sector, and how NoWatt applies to you, ask...
Want to know how NoWatt works? Without telling you all our secrets we'd be glad to answer your questions.
Want to know what NoWatt could be worth to your organization, or how much it will cost?
Want to know something specific about the hardware and how it interfaces with your site?
Trackers are installed next to distribution boards on your site(s). Each tracker collects and transmits (via the Internet) readings from up to 54 small clip-on sensors installed on any feed, ring, or spur within the distribution board. You may have any number of trackers installed on any number of sites. Each sensor is the equivalent of a very smart submeter.
Our data centers collect, store, analyze, and present real-time and historical information to any Internet connected device, anywhere in the world. Whether in your office, home, or on the road, you can see everything concerning your electricity usage.
Each user has a specific view of a certain location(s) and set of applicances. Using a regular browser, users can track and target the usage their responsible for.
NoWatt is a 1000+ channel electricity tracker that sends sub-second readings via the Internet. It’s a storage and analysis engine that identifies individual appliances. It’s a web-based service that reports usage for any period, location, or appliance. It’s a database of operating costs for multiple business and equipment categories.
You see electricity consumption in real-time. You see what’s using what as it happens. You can also look at any period in the past, and do comparisons of one period against another. You can see when appliances are used, and how much they cost over any period. You can set ‘alerts’ to SMS or email you when things aren’t being used when, or as you want.
Together we identify major and erroneous users of electricity. You set goals and rules about usage, and our servers notify you when people or appliances break those rules. You use NoWatt’s web application to analyse your usage patterns. We use our growing database to identify inefficient and obsolete appliances and tell you about possible alternatives.
Because you don't know what your appliances cost to run, how can you justify them, or their replacement? Even if you know something costs £30/day to run now, do you know it will still be costing the same in a month’s time? How do you know there's not something better available, and how do you provide real ROI calculations without accurate running costs?
