EUM or why is my power bill $450 a month  

End Use Metering is a methodology employed to break down energy usage load-by-load, minute-by-minute. In brief, we can determine where the power goes and when, in exacting KWH (dollar) terms. Our reports provide a breakdown of exactly how much you paid to run your HVAC system, how much you paid for hot water, to cook, to run the pool, to water the yard, to light your property at night . . . we can measure any specific load/device/appliance and tell you exactly how much it cost to run. Of course we also monitor the mains to assure your utility meter is accurate as well.

Problems can be identified and we’ll recommend actions that can and will reduce your bill.

The procedure is straightforward; a current transformer is placed on each circuit that is to be monitored. This may be a stand alone unit on say your refrigerator, or the main logger with multiple feeds that we will place near your electrical panel to monitor the mains, AC, hot water, pumps and other loads. The equipment will be left for a month or more to collect data (in an emergency or special circumstance we can provide data at shorter intervals, at additional cost).

Analysis of the resulting data is done against temperature data from loggers that we place in your attic, in conditioned space and National Weather Service Data for cooling/heating degree-days to scan for irregularities in usage/consumption.

Knowledge is power and power is expensive nowadays.

We can provide you with specific knowledge of where the dollars you pay for your monthly electric bill are going.
