Hydro Ottawa announced, February 17, 2015, that businesses and landlords can quickly identify inefficiencies and energy waste with a new web-based solution offered by Hydro Ottawa’s subsidiary Energy Ottawa Inc. The EnergyFlow™ Monitor tracks a building's energy and water use in real-time, providing valuable data to identify inefficiencies or adjust settings based on occupancy patterns. Electricity generation, such as solar PV, can also be monitored and graphically presented. Energy Ottawa will be marketing the EnergyFlow™ Monitor solution, as the exclusive Canadian distributor for the suite of products.

 

While only available to Hydro Ottawa customers, this kind of initiative is a fantastic tool that could help our members encourage water efficiency in their communities, with real time feedback on usage.
