kWatch® in action
We recently installed a kWatch® Controller for one of our cold store customers. It’s placed next to their electricity meters and connects directly into their onsite generators and other important appliances. By logging into the Flow Power Portal, our customer tracks how much power they are using and what it’s costing them. Intermittently, the controller sends the customer alerts (text messages and emails) to let them know that a short high price event is coming. The kWatch® Controller, allows the customer to respond to the market quickly (and remotely) to significantly reduce the cost, they will pay for electricity. In this example you can see the customer ‘powered down’, by switching to using their generator while the market price sky rocketed. This is one happy customer!
