Industrial & Large Power Users

For operations where every kilowatt is a cost centre.

Manufacturing plants, pharmaceutical campuses, and large power users carry South Africa's most complex electricity accounts. We bring municipal-grade expertise to your side of the meter, and we are happy to be paid on the savings we find.

Where The Money Is

Four places we routinely find recoverable cost.

Industrial accounts are large enough that small structural errors become big money. Select an area to see how we approach it.

TYPICAL WEEKDAY LOAD PROFILE · HALF-HOURLY DEMAND (kVA) EVENING PEAK NOTIFIED DEMAND 00:00 06:00 12:00 18:00 24:00 Actual demand Notified demand
A half-hourly load profile shows exactly when — and why — your account gets expensive.
Understand your demand pattern

Large supplies are charged not just on energy used, but on the peak demand you draw. We analyse your half-hourly load profile to find expensive demand peaks and the behaviour that drives them.

  • Half-hourly load profile analysis
  • Maximum demand and notified demand review
  • Peak-shifting opportunities
Cut the cost of peaks

Once we can see when and why your peaks happen, we identify practical ways to flatten them, often without changing production, just timing.

  • After-hours and standby load detection
  • Power factor and reactive charges review
  • Demand-management recommendations
Are you on the right tariff?

Many large users are billed on a tariff that no longer suits how they actually consume. We model your consumption against the available tariff structures and quantify the difference, in Rand.

  • Tariff suitability assessment
  • Time-of-use structure modelling
  • Quantified, written comparison
Verify what you are charged

Tariff rates, multipliers, and fixed charges are applied by people and systems that make mistakes. We check that what appears on your invoice matches what should be there.

  • Line-by-line invoice verification
  • Meter multiplier and CT-ratio checks
  • Independent reading reconciliation
Look back to claw back

Billing errors rarely start this month. We audit 12 to 36 months of historical accounts to find sustained over-charging, then build the evidence pack to support a recovery claim.

  • 12–36 month account audit
  • Error quantification and evidence pack
  • Support through the dispute process
The insider's advantage

We spent fifteen years inside a municipal revenue protection department. We know how these accounts are built, where they go wrong, and what a credible dispute needs to look like.

  • Municipal billing-system knowledge
  • Credible, documented submissions
  • Realistic view of what is recoverable
Meter what matters

Sub-metering production lines and major utilities turns a single bulk bill into a map of where energy actually goes, so you can manage cost where it is created.

  • Sub-metering of lines and utilities
  • Energy per unit of output (KPI)
  • Cost allocation by department
Catch failures early

Compressed air leaks, failing motors, and refrigeration faults all show up in the data first. Continuous monitoring turns energy into an early-warning system for maintenance.

  • Anomaly and drift detection
  • Critical-load and cold-chain monitoring
  • Maintenance-triggering alerts
Our Favourite Way To Work

We are happy to be paid from the savings we find.

Industrial operators are, rightly, sceptical of consultants who promise savings and invoice regardless. So we offer a performance fee: a results-based model where our fee is a share of the verified electricity savings we deliver.

If we do not find a saving, there is no performance fee to pay. It keeps our interests and yours pointed in exactly the same direction, and it puts our money where our mouth is.

This can be combined with the Smart-View platform subscription and, where relevant, stand-alone consulting work. We always set out clearly, in writing, which fee applies to which piece of work, so there is never confusion about what you are paying for.

Who We Serve

Industrial operations we are built for.

Manufacturing & Production

Sub-metering of production lines and utilities, KPI tracking per unit of output, after-hours load anomaly detection, and tariff verification on large supply accounts.

Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare

Compliance-grade reporting, multi-building campuses, critical-load monitoring, and energy data for ESG and sustainability disclosure.

Cold Chain & Logistics

Refrigeration anomaly alerts, cold-chain compliance monitoring, energy per pallet position, and dock-level sub-metering for cost allocation.

Heavy Industry

High-demand supplies, power-factor and reactive-charge management, and notified-demand optimisation on large connections.

Food & Beverage

Continuous-process monitoring, refrigeration and utility sub-metering, and waste detection across energy- and water-intensive operations.

Large Campuses & Estates

Multi-building energy management, bulk-supply reconciliation, and consolidated reporting for facilities and finance teams.

Specialist Consulting

Expertise you can engage on its own.

Not every engagement starts with the platform. Sometimes you simply need a specialist in the room. These services can be bought as stand-alone consulting work.

Metering audits & assessments

A thorough review of your metering installation, billing accuracy, and compliance, delivered as a clear written report with prioritised recommendations.

  • Installation and CT-ratio verification
  • Billing-accuracy assessment
  • Prioritised, costed recommendations
Revenue-protection advisory

Identifying metering irregularities, tampering risk, and billing losses, then advising on how to close them, from the perspective of someone who has worked the other side of the counter.

  • Irregularity and tamper-risk review
  • Loss quantification
  • Practical remediation advice
Training & workshops

Practical sessions that lift your team's understanding of metering principles, energy monitoring, and regulatory compliance, pitched at the right level for the room.

  • Metering principles for non-specialists
  • Energy-monitoring best practice
  • Regulatory and compliance basics
SSEG & embedded generation

Guidance on small-scale embedded generation, import/export metering, and the reporting that keeps you compliant as you bring solar and other generation online.

  • Import/export metering principles
  • SSEG reporting and compliance
  • Bill impact of embedded generation
Platform Package

The Enterprise package for large power users.

For complex, multi-meter industrial operations, the Enterprise tier of the Smart-View platform delivers the depth and reporting that large accounts demand.

Let us find the saving first.

Book a no-cost assessment. We will review your accounts and load data and tell you, in writing, where we believe there is recoverable cost, and on what basis we would be happy to be paid for it.
