Energy measurement and controls
Smart meters and sub-metering for electricity, gas and water, with controls that switch off loads when the site is closed.

Your outsourced energy manager
We measure where your energy goes, deliver the projects that reduce it, and maintain and certify what we install. One team, with our own engineers and our own software. When the work is complete, the same meters confirm the savings.
- 44%less out-of-hours electricity across seven school sites
- 74%less electricity used outside working hours at a hospital facility
- 63%of a golf club's electricity now comes from its own solar
- 3.4 yrspayback on a car park lighting controls project
Why we measure first
The data decides what gets installed
We are not tied to any one technology, so what we recommend is based on what your meters show.
Ensuring the correct solar size can save significant capital outlay upfront.
- A measured baseline before anything is specified
- Consumption by site, by process and by hour
- Equipment sized to your actual load
- Savings verified by metering once the work is done
Figures are taken from completed DCS projects. Results vary with the site, its equipment and how it is operated.
What our clients say
Heating and cooling, solar and EV charging
Because everything is metered, we can see the results: solar supplied, on average, 41% of the club’s electricity this spring and summer. I’d recommend DCS to any club or business thinking about the same journey.
Heat pumps, solar and monitoring
Donal and his team were exceptional to work with throughout the entire project. They guided and supported us at every stage, making what could have been a complex undertaking a seamless process.
Solar, heat pumps and hot water
The results speak for themselves: since the upgrade, our gas costs are down by a third to 40% on the same months of previous years, and solar now supplies over 43% of our electricity. We’d recommend DCS to any club looking to cut its energy costs and carbon.
