energy monitoring

Power consumption surveillance

Energy monitoring is the practice of tracking and measuring electrical power consumption in a building, system, or device.

It typically involves sensors, meters, and software that record usage patterns in real time: The energy monitoring system flagged unusual consumption overnight.

Beyond simple metering, it enables identifying inefficiencies, detecting equipment problems, and reducing costs.

Smart home devices increasingly include energy monitoring features.
