DevelopmentWA – East Village @Knutsford

The East Village @Knutsford project involved the creation of an Embedded Network Metering System, designed to support a sustainable and technologically advanced urban development. This project showcased innovative energy solutions, integrating comprehensive metering and energy trading technologies.

Challenge

The project aimed to implement a multifaceted system that not only supported energy efficiency but also facilitated advanced energy trading mechanisms. The challenge was to design and integrate a system capable of handling estate level battery storage, water and energy metering, and electric vehicle charging, all while being compatible with peer-to-peer energy trading technology.

Solution

The consultancy and system design provided included the following components:

Estate Level Battery Storage: To ensure energy availability and sustainability throughout the development.

Water & Energy Metering, Data Aggregation & Transfer, and Visualisation: These systems were implemented to monitor and manage energy and water use efficiently, providing real-time data insights and management tools.

Electric Vehicle Charging & Load Management: To accommodate the growing demand for electric vehicles, charging stations equipped with load management technology were installed.

Power Ledger Peer-to-Peer Energy Trading Technology: The development served as a testing ground for this innovative technology, which utilised the backbone metering and data collection infrastructure to enable energy trading among residents.
