Energy Management
End-to-end facility energy operations
For: Energy Manager · Facility Operations Director · Plant Manager
The challenge
Most industrial operators manage energy across 7-12 disconnected systems — SCADA, BMS, utility portals, spreadsheet trackers, and manual meter readings. Data sits in silos. Maintenance is reactive. There is no way to benchmark Site A against Site B because the data formats, collection intervals, and measurement points are all different. The result: energy waste goes undetected for months, budget overruns surface at quarter-end, and ISO 50001 compliance becomes a documentation exercise rather than a continuous improvement process.
Meridia modules that help
How it works
- 1
Map your metering infrastructure
Audit every site to identify gaps between utility meters and end-use sub-meters. Define the meter hierarchy in Meridia so consumption is tracked from the grid connection point through distribution boards to individual loads — establishing the measurement boundary required by ISO 50001.
- 2
Establish energy baselines
Collect at least 12 months of historical consumption data per facility. Define energy performance indicators (EnPIs) — kWh/m², kWh per unit of production, cost per operating hour — and set baselines against which all future performance is measured.
- 3
Monitor and benchmark continuously
Track live EnPIs across your portfolio with automated alerts when any facility drifts beyond its baseline envelope. Compare sites using ASHRAE-benchmarked scorecards to identify underperformers and replicate best practices from your top-performing facilities.
- 4
Identify and implement improvements
Use consumption breakdowns and power quality data to pinpoint the specific equipment, processes, or operational patterns driving waste. Model optimization scenarios — load shifting, capacitor bank installation, renewable self-generation — and track savings against projected ROI.
