OptiWatt

Data-driven energy management with no upfront metering investment

OptiWatt is a software-supported energy management concept under development at GHS. It aims to turn existing smart-meter and utility data into actionable recommendations with quantified financial implications.

15 min

Consumption profiles based on smart-meter data.

0 CAPEX

The initial diagnostic assessment requires no new metering equipment.

Metering Portfolio

Combined analysis of multiple facilities, sites, or points of delivery (PODs).

Live Example · Price and Carbon Signals

The same consumption can produce different results at different times

OptiWatt examines both how much energy an organization uses and when it uses it. Hungarian electricity prices and grid carbon intensity vary by hour. Shifting flexible consumption can therefore have measurable effects on costs and emissions.

The live monitor combines Electricity Maps carbon data with ENTSO-E Hungarian day-ahead prices to identify more favorable and less favorable consumption windows.

The displayed price is the Hungarian day-ahead wholesale energy price. It is not an end-user electricity tariff. Detailed charts are available on the full monitor.

Target Users

Municipalities, public institutions, and multisite organizations

OptiWatt is designed for organizations with multiple consumption points, varied building types, exposure to changing energy prices, and limited internal energy management resources. Typical users include schools, preschools, sports facilities, public offices, cultural institutions, street-lighting portfolios, and multisite businesses.

Diagnostic Focus

Hidden costs and avoidable consumption

  • Unnecessary overnight, weekend, or holiday consumption;
  • Excess contracted capacity;
  • Reactive energy charges;
  • Inefficient contract and tariff structures;
  • Poorly timed or insufficiently assessed investments.
Outputs

Decision support with quantified financial impacts

  • Baseline modeling and weather normalization;
  • Investment scenarios for solar PV, battery energy storage (BESS), building renovation, and mechanical systems;
  • NPV, IRR, ROI, and payback metrics.
  • Management dashboard and PDF reporting;
  • A measurement framework aligned with EKR and IPMVP requirements.
Process

From consumption data to savings opportunities

1Data Collection

Distribution system operator (DSO) portals, CSV/API interfaces, smart-meter data, and contract records.

2Data Preparation

Treatment of missing and erroneous observations; a structured time-series database.

3Analytics

Baseline analysis, nonintrusive load monitoring (NILM), anomaly detection, and identification of avoidable consumption.

4Decision Support

Financially quantified recommendations, investment priorities, and reporting.

Development Status

Product concept and pilot framework

OptiWatt is currently a GHS concept under development. It is presented as an energy decision-support solution for pilots, needs assessment, and collaborative development, rather than as a finished commercial software product.

The objective is independent energy and financial decision support based on existing consumption data. Hardware and solar equipment sales are outside that objective.
