Going Mobile with Energy Monitoring in Toronto
Aug 10, 2017
Screaming Power has teamed up with the City of Toronto to provide their Environment and Energy Division its own mobile application to help manage energy and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. This energy management initiative was made possible through Toronto’s Green Market Acceleration Program and Screaming Power’s “Scream Enterprise” Business mobile solution. The Pilot’s goals were to consult with the Division to build a prototype mobile app that helps educate and inform the City, while aiding in achieving its building and energy footprint goals.
The success was in taking Screaming Power’s pre-built mobile application templates to quickly build a user-friendly solution to help the department manage, share and report energy information. This was achieved in a matter of weeks by seamlessly integrating seven different clouds to collect, display and analyze information for over 1100 locations in the GTA that are brought to life in a mobile app.
The solution provides dashboards with detailed interactive maps, comparable graphs, current information and market alerts. This information, along with key building information, helps the user see what is happening and the effects it has on the building’s energy use. This real-time mobile view into information allows multiple opportunities to integrate with the “Internet of Things” (IoTs) and Energy Management Systems, as it simplifies the reuse of information.
