The Consert solution allows utilities and consumers to reduce their carbon dependency, align themselves with government renewable energy credits and carbon portfolio standards, and reduce total energy consumption.
Rising energy usage means higher energy costs, a growing carbon footprint and the prospect of building more power plants, transmission and distribution lines. Consert’s real-time distributed energy resource management system can create cost-effective and consumer-friendly methods to decrease user consumption while also reducing the energy lost in transmission and distribution. The identification of problematic trends through real-time data can solve these issues and reduce costs and environmental impact unilaterally for utilities and consumers.
