Onzo is currently working on a number of projects with utilities globally.

Scottish and Southern Energy PLC

Onzo is working with Scottish and Southern Energy PLC, the second largest energy retailer in the United Kingdom with over nine million customers, on a wide scale deployment of the Smart Energy Kit.

The Kit consists of an award winning in-home display, a sensor and web portal.

The display, which can be positioned in the home in a variety of ways, delivers simple and coherent information to consumers, helping them make decisions on their energy usage in real-time.  It receives per-second data wirelessly from a self-charging sensor that has been designed for easy user-installation to a cable from the electricity meter.

The display can be connected to a home computer to upload data to a web portal where more detailed information and energy reduction advice is available to consumers.

Onzo's customer intelligence software modules are integrated within the web site and will provide Scottish and Southern Energy with a detailed analysis of consumption and understanding of customer behaviour in what is a highly competitive marketplace.

Australian Water Utility

Onzo is working with a water utility in Australia on a pilot project to help their customers use less water.

The Onzo Smart Water Kit builds upon the aesthetic qualities of the award-winning energy display and consists of a display, sensor and transmitter.

It measures consumption in litres per minute, tracks usage against a daily target depending on the number of household members and can indicate leaks on the customer's property.

Onzo's professional services team have been fully involved in the project and have helped develop a concept that is bringing immediate results in understanding customer behaviour and helping the utility reduce individual consumption.

A web portal and service are under development.
