Overview

This case study explores the successful deployment of Shelly solutions, focusing on electrometer-based consumption understanding, scheduled power management using 4-channel relays, and intelligent control of outdoor advertisements synchronized with the natural lighting conditions.
Deployments: The customer - large nationwide insurance broker.

Project Scope: The project encompassed the installation of Shelly devices in each of the 200 offices to gain a nuanced understanding of electricity consumption. This approach sought to empower office administrators with valuable insights into energy utilization patterns, paving the way for informed decision-making and targeted energy optimization strategies.

Challenges

Addressing and managing the diverse energy management needs of a complex office environment comprising 200 individual offices. Main challenges addressed – power monitoring, power management, power efficiency.

Solutions/Implementations

Key Components of the Installation:

  • Electrometer Integration: Shelly devices were strategically mounted in conjunction with each electrometer in the offices. This integration facilitated real-time monitoring of electricity consumption at the individual office level, providing granular insights for precise energy management.

  • Scheduled Power Management: To enhance energy efficiency, 4-channel relays were installed, allowing for scheduled power on and off outside regular working hours. This automated approach not only contributed to energy conservation but also aligned with sustainability goals by reducing unnecessary power consumption during non-working periods.

  • Outdoor Advertisement Control: A specialized relay was implemented to control the power supply to outdoor advertisements. This feature was intelligently synchronized with sunset and sunrise timings, optimizing energy usage while ensuring the visibility and impact of outdoor advertisements during appropriate hours.

Results

  • Precision Consumption Understanding: The integration of Shelly devices with electrometers provided a nuanced understanding of electricity consumption at the individual office level, enabling targeted energy management strategies.

  • Energy Efficiency Through Automation: The implementation of 4-channel relays for scheduled power management resulted in significant energy savings during non-working hours, aligning with sustainability objectives.

  • Synchronized Outdoor Advertisement Control: The relay controlling outdoor advertisements based on natural lighting conditions not only optimized energy usage but also maximized the visibility and impact of advertisements during peak hours.

Conclusion

The comprehensive office electricity monitoring installation demonstrates the effectiveness of Shelly solutions in addressing the multifaceted energy management requirements of a large office setting. By combining consumption understanding, scheduled power management, and intelligent control of outdoor advertisements, the deployment not only optimized energy usage but also contributed to the overall sustainability and efficiency of the office environment.
