Smart Energy & Water Monitoring System for Buildings in Singapore
Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System
A smart energy and water monitoring system for buildings in Singapore is becoming an essential solution, especially across commercial, industrial, and mixed-use developments. With rising utility costs and stronger environmental expectations, organisations need accurate, real-time visibility of electricity and water consumption. A smart energy and water monitoring system enables facility managers to reduce wastage, optimise building performance, and meet ESG and BCA Green Mark requirements.
NexAscent provides a complete, scalable IoT platform for smart energy and water monitoring system deployments, integrating LoRaWAN communication, high-accuracy meters, and a unified cloud dashboard designed for modern facilities.
⚡ Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System – How Electricity Monitoring Works
A smart energy and water monitoring system begins with accurate and reliable electricity measurement. NexAscent integrates industry-proven power meters including but not limited to:
- Socomec DIRIS B10 – multi-circuit power meter suitable for trending and analytics
- Schneider EasyLogic PM2000 Series – reliable 1-phase and 3-phase energy meters
📏 Accuracy Classes (Singapore Requirements)
To meet Singapore’s operational and compliance needs:
- Class 0.5 meters → required for billing, tenant submetering, and financial settlement
- Class 1 meters → suitable for monitoring, trending, optimisation, and FM insights
This ensures that every smart energy and water monitoring system complies with the appropriate accuracy standards.
🔌 Using Existing Energy Meters (Modbus RTU Compatible)
If your building already has energy meters installed, NexAscent can integrate them seamlessly — as long as they support Modbus RTU. This avoids unnecessary hardware replacement and significantly reduces installation cost.
The Milesight UC300 IoT Controller retrieves:
- Voltage, current, and power factor
- Energy usage (kWh / kVARh)
- Demand and peak load
- Load imbalance and harmonics
All data is transmitted securely to the cloud through LoRaWAN.
📡 LoRaWAN for Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System
LoRaWAN is the backbone technology for NexAscent’s smart energy and water monitoring system. It offers:
- Long-range indoor wireless communication
- Strong penetration through walls and risers
- Ultra-low data transmission cost
- Highly reliable, secure connectivity
This makes the smart energy and water monitoring system scalable for multi-storey buildings, campuses, data centres, retail malls, and industrial facilities.
💧 Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System – PUB-Compliant Water Metering
Water usage is monitored using PUB-approved ultrasonic water meters such as the BoveTech Y Ultrasonic Water Meter.
Key Advantages:
- Zero moving parts → minimal maintenance
- High accuracy for low and high flow rates
- Pulse or Modbus output for IoT integration
- Suitable for leak detection and detailed water profiling
These PUB-compliant meters ensure your smart energy and water monitoring system meets mandatory water metering standards in Singapore.
☁️ Unified Dashboard for Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System
The NexAscent cloud dashboard consolidates all electricity and water data into one interface.
Dashboard Features:
- Real-time electricity & water consumption
- Daily, weekly, monthly trend analytics
- Custom date range comparison
- Multi-tenant & multi-site views
- Automated PDF/Excel monthly reports
- Alerts for abnormal consumption, leaks, or equipment issues
This unified dashboard makes it easy for facility teams to take proactive action and improve sustainability outcomes.
⚙️ Installation & Integration for Smart Energy and Water Monitoring System
The smart energy and water monitoring system is designed for seamless integration into existing or new buildings:
- Compatible with Class 0.5 and Class 1 meters
- Works with existing Modbus RTU energy meters
- Supports PUB-compliant water meters
- LoRaWAN gateways connect via LAN or optional 4G
After installation, your team receives onboarding and full access to the monitoring dashboard.
