Unlocking Value from Half-Hourly Data

If you are a mid-to-large UK business, you likely have a "Half-Hourly" (HH) meter. This meter records your energy use every 30 minutes, 48 times a day. This data is a goldmine of information, yet most businesses only look at the total monthly figure on their bill.

The Load Profile: Your Building's Fingerprint

By visualizing your HH data, we can see your "Load Profile." This is a fingerprint of how your building breathes. We look for:

• Base Load: What is your energy use at 3 AM on a Sunday? If it's more than 20% of your peak, you have significant "vampire loads" (equipment left on unnecessarily).
• Peak Demand: When do you hit your highest usage? Can we shift some of that demand to a cheaper time of day?
• Startup Spikes: Does your energy use skyrocket at 8 AM when everything is switched on at once? Staggering equipment startup can reduce your kVA capacity charges.

Anomaly Detection

Smart data analysis can identify equipment failure before it happens. A sudden increase in the base load of a refrigeration unit, for example, often indicates a failing compressor or a leak, allowing for proactive maintenance.

Match Energy uses expert analytics to turn your raw HH data into actionable intelligence. We don't just show you graphs; we show you where the waste is and how to stop it.
