Businesses across Ireland will be able to reduce electricity costs, improve energy efficiency and meet their sustainability goals with the launch of Smart Meter X Dowds Energy Solutions.
The innovative automated metering & targeting systems (AM&T) provide real-time data on energy usage and enable businesses to closely monitor and manage their energy consumption. By offering insights into when and where energy is being used most, the smart meters enable businesses to identify inefficiencies and optimise energy consumption trends.
As energy prices continue to fluctuate and the focus on sustainability intensifies, businesses are increasingly seeking ways to manage costs without sacrificing operational efficiency.
“AM&T Systems can help reduce energy expenditures, but they also play a pivotal role in decreasing carbon footprints and supporting greener, more sustainable practices,” said George Mimnagh, Sustainability Manager, Dowds Energy Solutions.
“As well as cutting costs they make businesses more resilient and sustainable, ensuring that they are well-positioned to thrive in a rapidly changing energy landscape.”
The launch of Smart Meter x Dowds Energy Solutions comes at a critical time, as businesses across the nation are facing rising operational cost, increasing energy demands, and a growing pressure to meet sustainability targets. With many companies actively seeking to enhance their green credentials, the ability to manage energy use efficiently has never been more important.
In addition to benefiting individual businesses, AM&T systems are expected to play a key role in the UK’s target of reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2050. By providing detailed data on energy consumption, smart meters allow businesses to track and adjust their energy usage in real-time, ensuring they align with both their own sustainability targets and the broader government agenda for a cleaner, greener future.
George Mimnagh continued:
“AM&T systems are a key enabler of the UK’s net zero 2050 ambitions, allowing companies to make informed decisions about how and when they use electricity. This kind of data-driven approach is vital in achieving long-term sustainability goals, reducing reliance in fossil fuels, and minimising the environmental impact of energy consumption.
“As businesses become more conscious of their role in achieving national climate goals, automated metering and targeting systems offer them the tools they need to reduce energy waste, lower emissions, and transition toward more sustainable operations.
“Dowds Group will expand the rollout of its smart metering solution over the coming months, aiming to support an increasing number of businesses in making informed, data-driven energy decisions.
“Small businesses can also take advantage of the Digital Transformation Flexible Fund, launching in March, which covers 70% of installation costs.
“By offering tailored solutions that help companies achieve cost savings and improve energy management, Dowds Group is helping pave the way for a more sustainable business landscape.”
