Challenge
Significant manual effort and poor data quality
Meter readings were taken manually on a monthly basis — in an industrial setting with exposed metering points spread out over large areas.
Lack of real-time data and a centralized overview
Energy consumption data could neither be analyzed across different media nor used in a timely manner for operations, billing, reporting or energy management.
No transparency for landlords and tenants
Neither electricity, water, nor gas consumption could be accurately and transparently tracked. This poses a problem for cost control and ESG reporting.
Solution
Smart meters connected via LoRaWAN – for greater efficiency, data availability and CO₂ savings at CHEMPARK.
Retrofitting existing meters with Conneqtive IoT sensors
Existing analog meters were converted to digital — using clip-on sensors with wireless transmission, without any changes to the infrastructure.
Connectivity via LoRaWAN® infrastructure
Ten LoRaWAN® gateways ensure stable wireless connections — over distances of several kilometers and without the need for new cabling.
Centralized visualization on a data platform
All measured values are transmitted in real time to a cloud platform, where they are made available for operational use, reporting and analysis.
