What makes us different
About MeterOnline
The MeterOnline system has been in operation since 2005 and has a broad range of customers including community energy schemes, councils, housing associations, major companies and individual users.
Leading meter service providers
Over the years we’ve constantly updated our systems to use the latest technology and available hardware.
Remote Readings
Readings from smart meters are sent securely via the mobile phone network and then through private network connections to our systems. Typically the smart meters are monitoring renewable energy generation from Solar PV, Wind, etc. or sub-metering electricity supplies.
Accessibility
The principle of the system is to collect data from customers own Smart Meters at any location and make the results accessible anywhere via a easy to use cloud portal. The MeterOnline system provides facilities to manage, display, analyse and retransmit the data.
Large Support Team
We are backed by a large development team providing support and updates.
PRACTICAL EXAMPLEs OF
REMOTE MONITORING
- A Housing Association with 500 solar PV installations needs to automatically claim the feed in tariff and monitor system operation.
- The installation contractor fits a Smart Meter, instead of the standard generation meter on each system
- All the meters are automatically read on a regular basis via the MeterOnline system, and can be checked online
- The MeterOnline system assembles all the data into a single FIT report with the option of scheduled transmission for total automation of the FIT claim.
- The operation of all systems is monitored and if one system ceases to generate an alert is sent so maintenance can be undertaken
- A record of readings is accumulated for comparison with expected output and performance analysis.
