Same Billing as the Utility Tracking of Energy Expenses Consumers are charged exactly as they would be charged by the utility (in case that tariffs are regulated). Monitoring the system allows for continuous tracking of energy expenses, enabling cost reduction and accurate investment planning. Charging Actual Consumption Charging according to the actual consumption is the only fair choice. Charging per floor area is unfair and may cause some consumers to be unnecessarily charged for other consumers' actual consumption. Accuracy SATEC meters are up to 10 times more accurate than utility meters...
