Project Overview
IBG were asked to design, install
and commission a bespoke, smart
metering and monitoring network for
electricity and water consumption at
this 100+ unit industrial and retail
park.
The objective was to automate the
utility metering and tenant billing
process, improve accuracy, mitigate
losses and reduce the number of
man hours associated with this
previously manual process.
Quote from Client
"In addition to the countless
man hours saved by
alleviating the requirement for
monthly, manual meter readings
at Aintree, the IBG System has
already produced significant
savings by identifying when
and where energy is being
consumed across both Tenant
and Landlord services.
We are very happy with
the results thus far and
would definitely recommend the
IBG Cloud software as the
ROI speaks for itself."

The Benefits
Historically all meter readings and tenant billing at the site had been done
manually by Emerson employees, with the previous tenant meters located
within the individual tenant units. This was a logistical nightmare leading
to consistent losses on the quarterly tenant recharge of 5-7% across the
estate.
Following the installation of IBG's smart metering solution, all
manual processes related to energy metering, reporting and billing
have been automated and previous losses have been mitigated through
MID compliant hardware and a 'meter-at-source' strategy.
Quote from IBG
“We are extremely pleased with the
positive results at Aintree, having
overcome various critical signaling
challenges during the project due to
the existing infrastructure.
The client is very happy with the
installation and the ongoing benefits
of IBG's cloud-based system which is
producing a swift payback."
