T-mac dashboard at Nottingham University can be viewed online

T-mac technologies has teamed up with the Environmental Technology Centre ETC at the University of Nottingham to showcase energy-reducing technology via its interactive web site (URL below). ETC offers energy advice to businesses and now has a custom-made t-mac automatic-meter-reading dashboard to its web site. The device meters energy generated from its water-source heat pump in its demonstration centre and is available for everyone to see.

Information on energy usage is used to show data in real time using charts on a screen and is usually displayed in commercial buildings to showcase green credentials to customers or stakeholders visiting the business.

John Hemingbrough, project officer at the ETC, says, ‘To save energy, it is essential for any business to know how much energy is being used, when it’s being used and where it’s being used. The t-mac system we have installed will allow us to monitor and optimise the performance of the system and will provide an ideal demonstration of how submetering can be applied to an existing installation.’
