You may have had the best interests of your tenants, owners or residents in mind when you set up an embedded network for your building, but you may not have had a great deal of information on how to run it properly. Embedded networks are fantastic ideas in principle, but to remain efficient in practice, they require specific knowledge and deft skill. That’s perhaps why some people regard embedded networks with caution, but the important thing to remember is that the concept itself is sound. The challenge comes in when you’re trying to manage one of these networks.
For the uninitiated, here’s how embedded networks work: all the power in your building is bought from a single metered point (called the Parent or Gate Meter), which a dedicated embedded network manager oversees. From here the embedded network manager on-sells the electricity to the occupiers of the building.
The new rules will require the appointment of an embedded network manager for all embedded networks as of 1 December 2017. This will certainly help owners get more out of their networks. The catch for many facility operators will be to find proper management. While it is certainly possible to manage a network on one’s own, the process of becoming accredited to do so may be time-consuming, difficult, and expensive. Even if you do become accredited, you may run into trouble from time to time as you find your footing—so it’s always a good idea to have professionals you can call for help.
That’s where ENM Solutions comes into the equation. ENM Solutions provides support for embedded networks throughout the country and can either manage your system for you or offer independent embedded network management consultants for your Melbourne building. Using consultants may allow you to manage the network yourself while retaining access to experienced authorities so that you have a resource to help you troubleshoot. When you use independent embedded network consultants in Melbourne, you can continue to operate your network while we help find someone to bill your electricity as an embedded network manager. Outsourcing some of these finer points to us helps to maximise your network’s efficiency and translates into a better experience for the people who use your network.
People often worry about the efficiency of embedded networks, but what you ought to consider is the amount of money a properly managed network can save and create. You get what you pay for when it comes to the management of electricity, and that includes the people you hire for network management consulting. Investing in professional help can pay off significantly in the long run, realised in better surplus margins you channel through your embedded network.
