Save time, energy and money with SimbleSense

Co-op Wholesale partners with SimbleSense, a leading cloud-based energy platform that helps retailers reduce energy consumption and costs by providing real time insights.

Smarter energy management

SimbleSense plugs straight into your energy meters to give live, detailed analytics. You can instantly spot inefficiencies, compare usage across days, weeks or seasons, and set alerts when consumption exceeds your limits. It can even help you to negotiate better utility contracts!

The clear dashboards turn complex energy data into simple visuals, so you can benchmark performance, track trends and make decisions with confidence. No scrolling through endless spreadsheets, everything is grouped logically and easy to access.

And with multiple users able to work in the same data at once (minus the version control nightmare!), it’s built for modern teams.

Automation that saves money

SimbleSense collects data automatically, reducing human error and keeping information as up to date as possible.

Key features include:

  • Built in error checks for reliable data
  • Peak usage indicators
  • A rules engine that switches equipment on/off to save energy
  • SMS/email alerts
  • Automatic maintenance to keep everything running smoothly
  • Low cost upgrades for future proofing

Insights that look ahead

Beyond tracking today’s usage, SimbleSense predicts future trends, is able to compare across multiple sites, and reveals where energy is being lost so you can stay ahead of rising costs.

Scalable, accessible and secure

As it's a cloud-based platform, you can access it from anywhere with internet connection (meaning there is no need for USBs, email, WeTransfer, or the like!).

It scales with your business and includes robust security to protect your data.
