Return On Your Investment
Power providers utilize several different billing methods depending on your location.
Energy costs can be calculated based on aggregate consumption, tiered on time-of-day usage, and then subject to discounts or incentives. PowerWatch can be programmed with any billing system to produce real-time energy cost reports or detailed forecast to aid planning and conservation.
PowerWatch customers routinely experience savings of 20% or the equivalent of one free month of electricity every five months. The following tables are simple examples of typical residential and commercial power consumption and costs.
