Case Study: University of Sussex achieves carbon, energy and water savings with Emma AI from Optimal Monitoring

University of Sussex saves £1.0 million in water with Optimal Monitoring

The University of Sussex, a leading research university, needed help achieving its carbon reduction targets and gaining better visibility into its energy and water usage across its large campus. They partnered with vendor Optimal Monitoring and its Emma AI service to address this challenge.

Optimal Monitoring implemented a metering strategy using Emma AI to provide detailed insights into the campus's utility consumption. The solution quickly identified a major water leak, leading to approximately £1 million in savings, which paid for the system many times over. It also optimized the performance of the university's solar panels. The vendor's approach provided the university with actionable data and significant financial and environmental returns.
