5. Using your Enistic Kit to Save Energy
Getting Started
Once the equipment in the kit is
connected and plugged in, you are
ready to take the first step in
monitoring your energy usage and
then use this knowledge to make
savings. The Enistic system will
give you a detailed picture -
enabling you to access real-time
data and focus right in on the
energy consumption of specific
devices.
Identifying Power Hogs
Energy Manager Lite will track the
energy usage of your chosen
pieces of equipment. It will clearly
show you, in graph form, which
devices are using the greatest
amounts of energy and at what
times.
Standby / Overnight Savings
Energy Manager can be used to
see how much power is used when
a device is on standby, compared
to when it is turned off. This will
give your organisation a better
idea of where energy is being
wasted overnight or at other times
when the premises are not in use.
Significant savings can be achieved
by using this data to encourage
behavioural
change
(such
as
turning off the photocopiers at
night, rather than leaving them on
standby). It might also indicate
that greater savings could be made
by automating some of the
switching off of equipment –
something that is easy and
inexpensive
to
achieve
by
extending your kit and upgrading
to Energy Manager Pro.
Making Energy Saving More
Visible
Energy Manager presents energy
data in a very accessible graph
format, so that it is easy to share
findings
with
colleagues
and
encourage everyone to take more
of an interest in energy saving.
