Energy Measurement is the Basis for Efficiency

If you don’t know where the energy flows in your buildings, you are wasting potential – and money! Modern energy management begins with reliable measurement and only reveals its full benefits when losses are minimized and generation, consumption, and storage are intelligently coordinated.

Loxone Energy Meters offer the right solution for every project. Whether for a single-family home, commercial enterprise, or industrial facility, the meters deliver precise measurements and lay the foundation for efficient energy management. Thanks to flexible designs, both residences and large facilities can be reliably monitored without complicated retrofits or costly conversions.

Why Energy Measurement is Essential Today:

• Measure energy flows: Record consumption, feed-in, and peak loads.
• Reduce base load: Identify and eliminate continuous emergy consumers.
• Optimize energy management: Actively control energy consumers and generators such as PV systems or battery backups and implement load management.

This three-part approach reflects the Loxone energy management approach: the Miniserver acts as a central control center, coordinating and optimizing generation, storage, and consumption as well as taking into account weather forecasts and variable electricity prices.

Measure & Visualize Energy Flows

The first step towards greater efficiency is transparency. With Loxone energy meters, whether Tree meters or current transformer meters, all data is reliably recorded and displayed directly in the Loxone app. Including:

• How much energy is currently being drawn from the grid.
• How much the PV system is feeding in.
• How high the charging/discharging capacity of the storage unit is.
• Which devices or system components are currently drawing how much power.

This overview forms the basis for avoiding peak loads, increasing self-consumption, and reducing base loads… whether in your own home, in a commercial space, or in large industrial plants.

Applications for Current Transformer Meters

Current transformer meters come in to play when conventional energy meters reach their limits. Loxone Tree energy meters are designed for direct measurements up to 100A per phase, making them ideal for single-family homes or small commercial units.

However, significantly higher currents occur in larger projects, such as industrial settings, hotels, charging parks, or commercial kitchens. In these cases, current transformers are the right choice: Loxone’s current transformers can accurately measure currents up to 400A. Installation is quick and safe, as main cables do not need to be disconnected. This means that even large consumers such as heat pumps, cooling systems, or machine parks can be monitored.

Important: The use of current transformers is not only useful for very high currents. Loxone offers models in various sizes – including 25A. They are ideal for applications where flexible retrofitting is desired. This means that smaller consumer groups or individual system components can also be monitored independently of the main measurement.
