An extensive metering project with Emerson Management Services
Our partnership with Emerson Management Services Ltd gives them smarter ways to stay switched on and save.
A meter upgrade for Emerson Management Services
In our journey to net zero, supporting sustainability in the built environment is key. One of the UK’s largest privately owned property development companies asked for our expertise in an extensive metering project, and we worked together to meet its project goals.
Since 2014, we’ve supplied Emerson with power across their portfolio. In October 2019, they asked us to help them convert an office building into a block of managed apartments.
Before the conversion, there was just one Half-Hourly Meter in the whole building. We were asked to replace this one meter with 37 individual meters: one for each new flat and one for the common areas. All 37 meters were installed over five working days.
The project demanded swift coordination due to ongoing construction work. Emerson and SmartestEnergy had just over two weeks to prepare the site for the installation, ensuring it was safe and operable. Thanks to the proactive efforts of our Sales and Metering Teams, detailed site plans and photos were shared with the meter installer. An Area Manager attended the site to finalise plans, an effective collaboration between all parties involved.
Despite unforeseen setbacks with contraction delays, the installation progressed smoothly once it began. The experienced engineer installed 7-8 AMR meters per day, completing all 37 meters within five working days.
By providing a comprehensive solution, we ensured the project's timely and effective completion. Emerson Management Services Ltd now considers SmartestEnergy their go-to partner for future projects, confident in their capability to deliver exceptional service and results.
SmartestEnergy’s relationship with the meter installer meant they were able to facilitate everything for the entire project, providing us with a one-stop shop for the work we needed to be carried out. The convenience of the service, coupled with the quick completion of the work, means that SmartestEnergy will be our first port of call the next time we need similar work done!
