Plug Power: The Hidden Drain You Can’t Afford to Ignore
From idle appliances to always-on heaters, plug power waste adds up fast. measurable.energy's AI-powered solution gives you appliance-level control: so you can cut carbon, reduce costs, and eliminate wasted energy in your buildings.
What Is Plug Power?
Plug power is the electricity used by all appliances plugged into sockets - or hardwired into fused spurs - across your building.
Real Results. Measurable Impact.
Already saving energy, carbon, and cost - every day.
Plug power = 40% of electricity use in most commercial buildings
%202%20(1).avif)
In modular construction buildings, 90% of total energy use is plug power
50% of that is wasted due to idle or standby appliances
How measurable.energy Works
A complete energy control centre: from socket to strategy.
Detect + Identify
Every plugged-in device is recognised by its energy signature: and our AI knows what to do with it.
From fridges to fan heaters, our machine learning models identify what’s plugged in, where it is, and how it behaves - right down to idle, standby, and wasteful patterns other systems can’t see.
Automate + Optimise
AI learns usage patterns and shuts off waste — automatically.
Set schedules, apply rules, and let the system reduce plug load energy without human input. Savings are tracked, verified, and report-ready.
Prevent and Protect
Turn insights into impact in real time.
Track live energy use and carbon output at the device level, powered by National Grid intensity data. Spot unusual patterns, flag risks, and eliminate faults, or fire hazards before they escalate. Our AI doesn’t just see the problem - it acts on it.
More Than Energy & Carbon Savings
measurable.energy goes beyond carbon and cost - supporting safer, smarter, more sustainable spaces.
Risk Reduction
Reduce the risk of overloaded sockets, faulty appliances, and silent hazards with AI-powered appliance monitoring and automated shut-off.
Space & Occupancy
Get instant feedback on what's drawing power to better understand how your spaces are actually used and optimise layout, occupancy, and spend.
Behaviour Change
Engage teams with live LED cues, custom dashboards, and socket-level visibility that turns awareness into action on wasted energy.
Proven Impact Across Sectors
AI-powered energy control that delivers proven savings and safer, smarter spaces — across offices, retail, construction, and hospitality.
01. Construction & Site Compounds
Cut emissions and control risk on temporary sites with smart socket tech that’s as mobile as your project timeline.
02. Commercial Offices
Stop monitors, heaters and chargers from draining energy overnight — and track carbon savings, floor by floor.
03. Retail
Eliminate out-of-hours plug load waste in stockrooms, displays and break areas — without disrupting store ops.
04. Hospitality
Flag inefficient equipment, reduce wasted energy in guest areas, and run greener venues from kitchen to reception.
