Enmon for shopping and retail centres

The centre closes at 21:00.
Consumption doesn't.

HVAC, cooling, mall lighting, the car park, the biggest bills come from common areas that belong to no one in particular. Enmon meters them, puts them in the context of footfall and splits the costs fairly between tenants.

A true story

The site that was run on foot

A Prague exhibition venue of 105 000 m² with 120 events a year ran its energy entirely by hand. Someone from the control room had to physically walk the site and set up each building separately. On top of that, rental events get booked at the last minute, which meant demand peaks and penalties for exceeding reserved capacity.

Enmon is digitalizing energy across the whole site. Capacity purchasing runs on data instead of guesses, and the carbon footprint of individual events became a service the venue offers to organizers. A 1 MW solar plant and 36 carports with chargers are in preparation.

A shopping centre has the same DNA: visitor-driven operations, shared systems, tenants, and consumption that swings with every hour of the day.

Consumption in the context of operations

Who are you lighting at six in the morning?

Absolute numbers say nothing. Only next to the footfall curve can you see when the systems serve customers, and when they just spin the meter. Scrub through a day at the model centre.

Between 5:00 and 9:00, HVAC and lighting run nearly flat out, for an empty centre. A static time schedule knows nothing about footfall. Cutting the ramp-up by two hours means roughly 1 200 kWh a day, over €80 thousand a year at the model centre. And the exact same question applies in the evening after closing.

Service charges, billed by m²

Shared energy of €40,000 a year, five tenants. A flat rate by floor area looks fair, until the metering starts.

The fashion store spent years subsidizing the café and the electronics shop by over €4,000 a year, a flat rate per m² favours energy-hungry operations and punishes the frugal ones. Submetering turns service charges into a fair bill: those who save, save money. And tenant disputes stop being about feelings.

The property as an asset

Investors want ESG. Tenants want a fair bill.

Both stand on the same data. Enmon collects it once and uses it everywhere, from service charges to the annual report.

Billing without disputes

Tenants pay for actual consumption, not an average by floor area. Those who save, save money, and centre management stops spending time defending service charges.

ESG data for investors

Consumption, solar production and CO₂ emissions to the standards, reporting for investors and banks is generated from operational data, not from year-end estimates.

Solar and chargers under control

Production from the roof and the carports next to the centre's consumption: how much gets used, how much flows out, and whether charging peaks threaten the reserved capacity.

The venue: from walk-rounds to data

An exhibition venue with 120 events a year runs capacity purchasing on data instead of guesses and offers organizers the carbon footprint of their events as a service. The same principle, consumption in the context of footfall, works in any centre people walk into.
