Energy monitoring
Energy monitoring that sees more than the meter reading.
FrostLogic Explore reads your meters, sensors and BMS continuously, and flags what's actually off-baseline across six detection methods — not another dashboard full of charts.

What this means
Monitoring is the floor. The ranked queue is the point.
Energy monitoring means reading every meter, sensor and BACnet or Modbus signal in real time — and knowing what's normal before something turns anomalous. FrostLogic Explore reads the meters, sensors and BMS you already run continuously, and holds a live baseline for every signal.
Most energy monitoring tools stop at the chart: a dashboard that shows what got consumed. Explore goes a step further. Six detection methods — sensor drift, stuck values, energy spikes, forecast deviation, sensor offline, cross-signal incoherence — filter out the noise and surface only what actually deserves attention.
For operators tracking energy-efficiency obligations, continuous monitoring provides exactly the gapless, timestamped record that evidence requirements call for. It's not a substitute for legal advice on specific thresholds or deadlines — but it puts the numbers on the table before anyone asks for them.
Energy monitoring is the measurement layer. Where your building documents, maintenance logs and compliance evidence live searchable is the job of the Data Warehouse; what happens with a detected anomaly — prioritise, assign, resolve — is the job of an energy management system. Explore connects all three layers on the same sensor data.
What Explore reads
Four capabilities, one queue.
Real-time reads
Meters, sensors and BMS points, read continuously — not synced hourly.
Six detection methods
Sensor drift, stuck values, energy spikes, forecast deviation, sensor offline and cross-signal incoherence — how Explore detects anomalies.
Compliance-relevant record
A gapless, timestamped log that stands as the data backbone behind your energy-efficiency reporting obligations.
No new hardware, EU-hosted
Reads what's already installed. Vendor-agnostic, data stays in the EU.
Compared
Energy monitoring: Explore against the alternatives.
| Vendor hardware dashboard | Spreadsheet / manual | FrostLogic Explore | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Only that hardware brand | Wherever someone has time to read a meter | Every meter, sensor and BMS in the estate |
| Freshness | Usually real-time, but siloed | Days to weeks old | Real-time, across every source |
| Anomaly detection | Static thresholds, if any | None | Six methods, automatic |
| Alert noise | Every threshold fires on its own | — | One ranked queue, not an alarm storm |
| Vendor lock-in | Tied to that brand | None, but no signal either | Vendor-agnostic, read-only |
| Audit readiness | Export format varies by vendor | Manually built, error-prone | Timestamped and audit-ready |
At a glance
What energy monitoring means inside Explore.
A module inside FrostLogic Explore: continuous reads from your meters, sensors and BMS points, automatic anomaly detection, ranked by cost and operational risk.
How it works
From raw reads to a ranked queue.
01
Connect
Explore reads your meters, sensors and BMS read-only — over BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, or a local agent. No new hardware required.
02
Detect
Six methods flag what's off expected behaviour: drift, spikes, stuck values, forecast deviation, outages, cross-signal contradictions.
03
Prioritise
Every anomaly is scored by cost and risk and sorted into a queue — ready for your team or your energy management system.
Before you ask
What teams ask about energy monitoring.
Continuous, automated reads from meters, sensors and BMS points in real time, combined with automatic anomaly detection. Not manual meter reads, not a single siloed vendor dashboard — one queue across the whole building estate.
No. A grid-level monitoring report (like Germany's Bundesnetzagentur Monitoringbericht) is an annual, network-wide report on the energy sector as a whole. The energy monitoring on this page is building- and plant-level: your own meters, sensors and BMS points, read continuously.
Energy-efficiency legislation in several EU markets requires large organisations to run an energy or environmental management system and evidence efficiency measures. Continuous energy monitoring provides the gapless, timestamped data foundation that record-keeping rests on — it isn't a substitute for legal advice on specific thresholds or deadlines in your jurisdiction.
Sensor drift, stuck values, energy spikes, forecast deviation, sensor offline, and cross-signal incoherence. [Every method explained in detail](/glossary/anomaly-detection/).
Energy monitoring is the measurement layer: meters, sensors and BMS, read continuously. The [Data Warehouse](/platform/data-warehouse/) is where building documents and compliance evidence live, searchable. An [energy management system](/solutions/energy-management-software/) decides, prioritises and assigns what happens with a detected anomaly. Explore covers all three layers on the same sensor data.
Usually not. Explore reads what's already installed — meters, BMS points, existing sensors over BACnet, Modbus, OPC UA, or a local agent. If a signal is missing, a virtual sensor can often fill the gap instead of installing new hardware.
Bring your meters. We'll show you what they're already saying.
