Monitoring energy efficiency in utilities for reducing cost

Many companies still only measure natural gas and electricity only at the custody transfer point. Using these few measurements, however, important parameters like specific energy consumptions are determined that give important indications such as how much energy does it take to make a tonne of product? These measurements are typically only taken on a monthly or sometimes even on a yearly basis. Investing a relatively small amount of money in comparative terms it is possible to set up energy monitoring systems that measure the consumption of each respective utility close to the point of use every 15 or 30 minuntes. These measurements can then be used to build meaningful relations between energy consumption and the factors driving it.
