10 Fleet Place
Introduction
Mott MacDonald, a global engineering consultancy, wanted to enhance energy efficiency at their headquarters in Fleet Place, London. As part of their compliance with the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) regulations, they needed a solution to monitor energy usage, simplify reporting, and uncover opportunities for energy savings. The goal was to work with their existing energy meters to integrate an automated, scalable system without major disruptions. Hills Energy Management Solutions was selected to deliver a future-ready, efficient energy monitoring system tailored to these requirements.
Challenges
The project presented several challenges. Mott MacDonald had strict compliance deadlines and required a quick, non-intrusive solution that could seamlessly connect with their existing energy meters. The installation had to be completed with minimal disruption to the busy office environment. The system also needed to be scalable, with the flexibility to roll out across their nationwide property portfolio in the future. Beyond compliance, they sought actionable insights from the system to improve energy efficiency and reduce operational costs.
Solution
Hills Energy Management Solutions implemented a modern energy monitoring system using the Wattsense Tower and LoRaWAN Adeunis Pulse Sensors. The system integrated seamlessly with existing infrastructure, allowing real-time tracking of energy consumption and automated cloud-based logging. Designed for quick deployment, the installation was completed without altering existing equipment or causing workplace disruptions. The system’s modular design ensures scalability, providing Mott MacDonald with a future-proof platform that can be expanded to other sites.
Installation
The installation was completed in just one day, ensuring minimal interference with the office’s day-to-day operations. Hills Energy Management Solutions delivered the project efficiently, keeping the process seamless for the client while meeting their compliance deadlines. The non-intrusive approach ensured that the office remained fully operational throughout the installation.
Results
The project delivered significant benefits for Mott MacDonald. The system ensured full compliance with ESOS regulations, providing automated, accurate energy reporting. Real-time monitoring offered valuable insights into energy consumption patterns, helping identify inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement. Automated data logging reduced the need for manual intervention, streamlining compliance processes and saving time. The ability to forecast energy spend proved invaluable, enabling better budget planning, reducing financial risks, and supporting long-term energy-saving strategies. The scalable design ensures consistent energy management across their entire property portfolio as additional sites are brought online.
Future Plans
With the successful installation at Fleet Place, Mott MacDonald is now planning to roll out the system across its national portfolio of properties. This expansion will enable centralized energy management and reporting, helping the organization maintain compliance while advancing its sustainability goals. The Wattsense Tower Cloud Platform will ensure all sites can be monitored and managed efficiently, creating a consistent approach to energy efficiency.
Conclusion
Hills Energy Management Solutions delivered a tailored, innovative energy monitoring system that met Mott MacDonald’s immediate compliance needs while laying the foundation for long-term energy management. The solution provided real-time insights, streamlined reporting, and scalability to futureproof their operations.
