Free energy insights for NI manufacturers

Smart Manufacturing Data Hub (SMDH) is offering a suite of free energy insights to Northern Ireland manufacturers

The insights aim to help businesses understand, optimise and harness the full potential of their energy usage.

Within this offering, there are three dashboards manufacturers can access to unlock insights from their half-hourly energy data, and make informed decisions to reduce costs and enhance sustainability.

What insights are available?

The dashboards include:

Energy Insights

This dashboard helps you to identify non-optimal energy usage, and detect potentially wasteful energy consumption, so you can make decisions to effectively reduce your energy costs without impacting productivity.

Energy Benchmarking

This dashboard helps you to leverage the power of shared data by accessing insightful benchmarks that compare your energy consumption to other SMEs.

Energy Impact Tracker

This dashboard helps you to track the impact of your energy preserving interventions over time, including changes to your energy usage, costs, and CO2 emissions.

How to access energy insights?

This support is available free of charge to participating manufacturers, with the requirement to submit your half-hourly electricity and/or gas meter data to the SMDH's portal.
