The platform for all energy data
ErbisOne is a powerful platform that transforms data from your buildings into reliable information that helps organizations take the right steps for a successful energy transition. Many well-known organizations from retail, education, healthcare, government and industry, among others, have been working with this platform for a long time.
Insight into your energy flows, indispensable in the energy transition
Insight into your energy flows is essential for taking the right steps in the energy transition. Without facts and figures about your consumption, you are to a certain extent rudderless in this theme and insufficiently able to make well-founded choices on the way to sustainability. Gaining insight into energy starts with collecting all the (energy) data in your building(s).
From building data to energy savings
Did you know that your building(s) contains a wealth of information that can tell you everything about your consumption and help you optimize it? You can read data from any possible data source and process it into relevant information. This includes data sources such as energy meters, sustainable generation, sensors and climate installations. This data provides insight into your consumption at various levels and may also provide insight into matters such as generation, comfort, efficiency and redelivery. By adding data on opening hours, indoor temperatures and weather information, it becomes possible to perform smart analyses and uncover additional savings opportunities.
Every building is unique!
Every building is unique and this can also be seen in the presence of the types of data sources in a building. For example, not every building will have access to smart meters and not every building will be equipped with sub-meters. A building may or may not be equipped with solar panels and/or ATES installation(s). In addition, the data output of different types of building management systems (BMSs) can vary considerably.
ErbisOne can import any possible data source!
An important strength of ErbisOne is that it can import data from any possible data source and process it into reliable information. This makes ErbisOne the platform for all energy data. To be able to deliver on this promise, the platform is already equipped with more than a hundred datalinks with all kinds of data sources, from various Metering Companies and Building Management Systems (BMSs) to SolarPV installations and data loggers. Even if you have a data source that is not yet linked to, the ErbisOne development team will still build it for you!
Main Meter Data
Your energy bills are based on the data that is (automatically) read from your main connection(s). This is therefore the most reliable information about your energy consumption. Regardless of the size of your building(s) and the data that is available, it is always good to import the data from your main connections.
If you are a large-scale consumer, the data is collected by the responsible metering company. By means of an authorization, ErbisOne can retrieve this data from this metering company and process it in the platform. If you are a small-scale consumer and your building is equipped with a smart meter, the data is collected by an Independent Service Provider. This data can also be imported by ErbisOne by default. Some examples of existing datalinks that are used daily in ErbisOne include: Anexo, Fudura, Joulz, Kenter, Ealyze, Innax, Enepa.
Data of any type of BMS
A BMS tells you a lot about your main connections, but can often also tell you a lot about other energy flows within your building. This is because numerous types of data relating to heating, cooling and ventilation are collected in a BMS. In addition, a BMS often also collects data on indoor temperatures, opening hours and attendance. This data will help you get a detailed picture of your consumption.
There are many different BMSs on the market, which function and handle data in different ways. Some examples of existing GBS datalinks that are used daily in ErbisOne include: Priva, Siemens, Johnson, BRControls, Webeasy etcetera.
Data from sustainable installations
More and more buildings are equipped with installations for sustainable generation, such as heat pumps, solar panels and ATES's. By collecting data from these installations, you gain insight into how it functions and profits.
Data from sustainable installations can be obtained in various ways. For example, this data can already be imported into a BMS, so that the data from the BMS can be read. In another case, the data can be collected directly from the supplier of the installation, for example by means of an API link. Some examples of existing datalinks that are used daily in ErbisOne include: SolarEdge, SMA Sunny Portal, Resol, Delta, SolarLog etcetera.
Data loggers, sensors, databases...
In addition to main meter data, data from BMSs or sustainable installations, there are many other possible data sources and data types that ErbisOne can read. ErbisOne is the platform for all data related to energy. Think of data loggers, sensors and databases. All kinds of developments within the energy transition, such as charging stations and batteries, raise the demand for more data processing in order to gain insight. Each vendor often has its own API or communication protocol for this. The power of ErbisOne is to bring this all together. And if a link does not exist, ErbisOne has a broad team of experienced developers to make the desired link possible. Some examples of existing datalinks that are used in ErbisOne on a daily basis include: Meteo, Smappee, Autarco, Bgrid, BPChargemaster, Centrica, NDMulticube, Factorylab and many others.
