Smart energy metering

Smart energy metering.

The interest in reading detailed information about own electricity consumption in the home has increased. Consumers constantly want to learn more about their behaviour to gain better control over their electricity consumption.

With a Pulse Rate Monitor, you control your own electricity consumption

Fjordkraft Puls is a small box connected to a power meter, so you can easily monitor your power consumption in real-time.
The box sends information about electricity consumption to the electricity company’s app via mobile data. The price for transmitting data is included in a fixed monthly amount and paid on the electricity bill.

Stable access through the mobile network

The Fjordkraft Pulse Rate Monitor sends data using the mobile network and can be used in the cabin and at home as long as there is mobile coverage. You get fast and stable access to your power consumption through 4G. The box also supports 5G, guaranteeing the best signals for years to come.

The story behind

Fredrikstad Energi (FEAS) and Nxtech got to know each other through joint activity in the research and development of energy solutions. In 2019, they jointly established the company NxtEnergy. Now they could follow up on the growing need to extract data from the new automatic electricity meters installed in all Norwegian households.

NxTech has carried out the following tasks for the Fjordkraft Pulse Rate Monitor:

• Electronics development
• Firmware development
• Industrial design and mechanical construction
• Set up volume production
• Test systems for production
• Follow-up production and logistics
• Packaging materials and user manuals
• Third-line support

After an exciting development run and testing, NXTech and NxtEnergy can present the well-known Fjordkraft Pulse Rate Monitor – and have also developed devices for the automatic reading of water meters. Intelligent measurement – both in a global and local sustainability perspective.
