HOME ENERGY MONITORING

Home Energy Monitoring Melbourne

Home energy monitoring shows you exactly where your power goes, then helps you move it to where it costs less. In a Melbourne home it means running the big loads on solar and catching the appliance that never switches off - clever spaces, that’s smart.

WORKS WITH THE PLATFORMS YOU ALREADY USE

IN PLAIN ENGLISH

What does home energy monitoring include?

Meters, circuits, solar and the big appliances - working as one team, in one app. And because we design around open standards, it plays nicely with the panels and brands already in your home.

Whole-home energy monitoring

See what the house is using right now and what it used last month, in plain numbers, not a mystery bill every quarter.

Neatly labelled switchboard with circuit-level monitoring

Circuit-by-circuit detail

Know which circuit is the hungry one. The pool pump, the old fridge in the garage, the heater that never quite switches off.

Electric car charging from rooftop solar

Solar integration

Watch what the panels make and what the house takes, then move the big loads to the middle of the day when the sun is paying.

Washing machine and dishwasher running on off-peak power

Off-peak automations

Hot water, dishwasher and EV charging that run themselves when power is cheapest, so savings happen without a spreadsheet.

Alerts that mean something

A quiet nudge when something is left on, spiking or drifting, so problems get caught before the bill arrives.

Battery and EV ready

Designed to bring in a home battery or an EV charger later without ripping anything out, so today’s setup grows with the house.

THE PROCESS

How it works

Five steps, one local team, and a fixed quote before any work starts - the whole journey from first chat to a home that looks after itself.

Consult

We listen to how you live, what worries you, and the moments you want the home to handle quietly.

Design

We map the right mix of monitoring, solar and automations so the system feels helpful from the first day.

Install

Our team installs the agreed system with neat work, clear communication and a tidy handover.

Configure

We tune alerts, load schedules and solar rules so the system responds to your routines instead of interrupting them.

Support

We stay close after setup, helping the system grow as your home, family and routines change.

PACKAGES

How much does home energy monitoring cost in Melbourne?

It depends on the size of your home and how far you want to take it - a whole-home meter costs a lot less than circuit-level monitoring with solar and automations. No two homes are the same, so we quote every project individually: fixed, itemised, and yours to sleep on. Here’s how the levels work.

Essentials

For apartments and smaller homes wanting to see where the power goes.

Whole-home monitoring in one app

A plain-English monthly picture of your usage

Alerts for anything left running

Full app setup and a proper walkthrough before we leave

The Clever Space

For family homes wanting solar and the big loads to work together.

Circuit-by-circuit monitoring of the hungry appliances

Solar production and usage side by side

Hot water and dishwasher timed to sunshine

Off-peak automations for the rest

Everything in one app, tested with you

The Works

For larger homes and new builds wanting energy designed in from day one.

Every circuit monitored, inside and out

Climate and hot water tuned to tariffs

Ready for a battery or charger later

Priority support from your clever mates in Brunswick

No prices on the site because no two homes are the same - every project gets a fixed, itemised quote after a consultation. The price you’re given is the price you pay.
