Case Study: Dual-Layer Water Leak Detection

Case Study: Industrial Leak Detection for Quix

New Zealand

Quix approached Smart Metering needing a way to monitor water consumption for a chiller tower top-up system. Without a real-time monitoring solution, potential leaks could go unnoticed for days or weeks, leading to significant water waste and operational inefficiencies.

Case Study: Private Electricity Network and Smart Power Metering for Coatesville Landing

Coatesville, rural Auckland, New Zealand · 19 lots

One point of supply. Individual metering. Automated household billing.

Case Study: Smart Metering and All Faze, Transforming Energy Management

Kerikeri, New Zealand

Smart Metering partnered with All Faze Electrical & Security Ltd, an electrical and data cabling provider experienced in large commercial projects, to implement an advanced smart metering solution for a commercial property in Kerikeri, New Zealand. The property had one revenue meter for the whole building, one outdated analogue sub-meter monitoring the first level, and no metering for the two commercial tenants on the ground level. With the first level split into three tenancies, an upgrade was critical for accurate metering and billing for each commercial tenant.

Power Sub-Metering for Co-Located Radio Equipment Across New Zealand

Across New Zealand

As New Zealand expands mobile coverage, 5G density and rural broadband, co-location has become the dominant model for deploying new wireless networks. Instead of building new radio towers, which can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars, many operators install their equipment on existing cellular or radio sites for faster, more cost-effective deployment. Co-location reduces cost and accelerates deployment but introduces the problem of metering each operator accurately and remotely for the power they consume.

Silo Apartments: Smart Water Metering Case Study

Auckland, New Zealand

Silo Apartments is a stylish residential complex blending heritage with modern living. Like many multi-residential buildings it faced an outdated, inefficient water billing system that placed the financial burden on owners rather than the people using the water. Without individual water meters, residents had no incentive to monitor consumption, leading to waste and rising costs for all.
