Field trials, OEM system integration, Load profiling and Energy audit- how plogg works for you

 

Plogg is a smart meter plug that provides essential data about energy consumption at the point of use — the electrical power socket. It allows you to check the power consumption of appliances in real time, monitor it over a longer period, and even control it remotely from anywhere in a building or over a network.

Plogg is the highest-quality, most fully functioned smart meter currently on the market. Its advanced technology provides a large number of features that work for different people in different ways. The thing they all have in common is that they are designed to help cut your energy use — and therefore save you money — both now and as energy prices continue to rise in the future.

Plogg is the smart power technology of the future, available today.
