Know How Your Assets Really Behave
MeterGuard reads the electrical signals from your meters and tells you what the assets behind them are doing – which machine is degrading, which control loop is wasting energy, and where your operating regime could be optimized. Fewer breakdowns, less wasted energy, and and better-informed investment decisions.
From Data to Understanding
Most sites already collect meter data, typically as one-minute values in an energy management system (EMS).
The data is there but reading what each asset is actually doing takes expertise and time few teams have. Problems therefore stay unnoticed until they surface as a failure, a quality issue or an unexpectedly high energy bill.
MeterGuard analyzes the electrical signal for you – from the aggregated values you already collect up to high-resolution data processed inside the meter – and turns it into a concise set of findings your team can act on.
What Is MeterGuard?
Meter Guard is a software solution that analyzes energy and operational patterns across the assets behind your meters – from individual machines and production lines to building systems and entire facilities – building contextual understanding to detect anomalies, identify energy drift and uncover emerging issues.
It learns the baseline behavior for each metering point under its typical load, considering season and operating mode, reporting what matters: asset wear and degradation, wasted energy, control issues and untapped flexibility.
It can run inside the meter, as a cloud service over your existing data collection, or as a one-off discovery analysis of your historical data.
How MeterGuard Works
MeterGuard uses a layered approach, progressively refining its analysis at each stage
Learns Typical Behavior
MeterGuard learns how currents, voltages, and power interact across operating regimes.
Detects Unexpected Behavior
MeterGuard flags unexpected or notable behavior only when confident. When analysis runs inside the meter, only these high-confidence findings leave the device.
Interprets and Prioritizes
MeterGuard reads each anomaly’s electrical signature and groups related events into a few clear stories – what happened and what it means.
Every Story Helps You Choose the Best Course of Action
Every story lands in one of three response layers, depending on what action it calls for.
Fix the Asset
Something is deteriorating within your asset: a bearing wearing out, a motor drawing more current than it should.
Retune the Control
Your asset is healthy, but the control logic operates it poorly: short cycling, idle running, two units working against each other.
Reconsider the Regime
Your regime is healthy and well controlled, but the operating conditions carry risk or leave value on the table: a peak you could avoid, a load you could shift.
Where the Stories Arrive
The cloud layer runs on Efel, a domain-aware knowledge agent built for energy infrastructure.
The Energy Discovery Casebook delivers every story – you can open each one and query it in plain language.
How MeterGuard Helps
Prevent Operational Surprises
Receive early warning days or weeks before a developing fault becomes a breakdown, so your maintenance team fixes it in a planned window instead of an emergency call-out.
Track Asset Health over Time
See how compressors, pumps, and chillers drift from their normal behavior, and schedule the intervention while the line keeps running.
Run Your Assets More Efficiently
Gain visibility into inefficient control regimes, poor coordination between assets, or hidden cycling, and recover the energy they waste.
Know What Drives Your Consumption
Understand when and where energy is consumed across your assets, reduce energy costs and unlock new revenue opportunities through flexibility services.
Serve More Sites per Analyst
Replace site-by-site dashboard interpretation with automatically generated stories, and cover a larger portfolio with the same team.
Raise the Value of Your Service Tier
Specific stories justify a higher price than dashboards alone. Your customers get clear answers they can understand and act on.
Keep Engagements Valuable
Deliver new outcomes each period instead of a fixed monthly report, so your contracts retain their value beyond the first quarter.
Shorten the Sales Conversation
Open the conversation with a specific financial outcome for the customer’s site.

Cloud
MeterGuard uses the data already collected in your SCADA or metering database, typically at 1-minute or 15-minute resolution. It detects anomalies and turns them into stories across everything your meters cover.

Edge
A software module runs on the meter and analyzes native samples at a resolution of hundreds of milliseconds – data your central systems never receive. Detection happens on the device, with no cloud integration required. You can install the module on meters already in service.
Edge + Cloud
The meter detects anomalies using high-resolution data, while the cloud analyzes them in context. This preserves the detail that aggregated data would otherwise obscure, while revealing patterns across multiple assets.
Start with a Discovery Project
A one-off analysis of the measurement data you already have.
We run MeterGuard over a sample of your historical data and show what it finds in your setup.
You receive a report and an interactive Energy Discovery Casebook, where you can open each story and question it in plain language.
