Switch Automation Introduces Intel Market Ready Solution

Energy & Sustainability Intelligence

Energy & Sustainability Intelligence for Modern Building Portfolios

Turn fragmented utility data into trusted operational intelligence. Monitor energy performance across your portfolio, identify issues before reporting deadlines, and give leadership confidence in every sustainability decision.

The Challenge

Energy Reporting Has Become A Business-Critical Function

Most organisations manage energy and sustainability reporting using spreadsheets, emails and manually collected utility data from dozens or even hundreds of suppliers.

Operational Pain Points

Small sustainability teams overwhelmed by manual processes

Utility data arriving in different formats and at different times

Inconsistent units, currencies and reporting periods

Poor confidence in data quality

Limited visibility into portfolio performance

No early warning when energy targets are at risk

Reporting issues discovered only after quarter-end

Business Impact

Missed sustainability targets

Delayed Board reporting

Increased audit effort

Reduced confidence in ESG reporting

Lost opportunities to reduce energy costs

"Most organisations spend their time collecting data. High-performing organisations spend their time improving outcomes."

How Switch Solves It

Create a Trusted Energy Data Foundation

Instead of manually collecting and validating data every reporting period, Switch continuously connects, validates and standardises energy information across your entire portfolio.

Core Capabilities:

Automated utility data collection

Building system integration

Meter and sub-meter integration

Automated data validation

Unit and currency normalisation

Portfolio-wide benchmarking

Continuous performance monitoring

Exception management

ESG reporting support

Executive dashboards

Move from Reactive Reporting to Proactive Management

The biggest challenge isn't producing reports. It's discovering problems after it's too late to act.

Switch continuously monitors performance against targets and highlights emerging issues before reporting deadlines, giving your team time to intervene, not just explain

Reactive Reporting

"Why did we miss the target?"

Proactive Management

"What can we do today to stay on target?"

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn how smart building software, digital twins, analytics, and automation help improve operational efficiency and sustainability.

How Can Organizations Improve Energy Reporting Across Multiple Buildings?

Managing energy reporting across multiple buildings can be difficult when utility data comes from different suppliers, systems and formats. Switch automatically collects, validates and standardizes energy data, giving organizations a trusted foundation for accurate reporting and better portfolio visibility.

What Is Energy & Sustainability Intelligence?

Energy & Sustainability Intelligence combines utility data, building performance and operational analytics to help organizations understand energy usage, monitor sustainability goals and make informed decisions. Switch transforms fragmented data into actionable insights that improve operational performance and reporting confidence.

How Can Commercial Buildings Reduce Energy Consumption?

Reducing energy consumption starts with understanding where energy is being wasted. Switch continuously monitors building performance, identifies abnormal energy usage and helps facilities teams optimize equipment, benchmark buildings and reduce operating costs across their portfolios.

How Does Automated Utility Data Collection Improve Energy Management?

Automated utility data collection eliminates the need for manual spreadsheets by continuously gathering information from utility providers, meters and building systems. Switch validates and standardizes this data, helping organizations improve reporting accuracy while reducing manual effort.

How Does Switch Support ESG and Sustainability Reporting

Switch helps organizations prepare accurate ESG and sustainability reports by centralizing energy data, tracking portfolio performance and monitoring progress toward sustainability goals. This improves reporting confidence while supporting regulatory and corporate reporting requirements.

Can Switch Integrate with Existing Energy Management and Building Systems?

Yes. Switch integrates with Building Management Systems (BMS), utility providers, smart meters, sub-meters, IoT devices and enterprise platforms, allowing organizations to improve energy visibility without replacing existing infrastructure.

How Can Organizations Identify Abnormal Energy Consumption Earlier?

Instead of waiting until the end of a reporting period, Switch continuously monitors energy performance and highlights unusual consumption patterns as they occur. This enables facilities teams to investigate issues sooner and reduce unnecessary energy costs.

Does Switch Support Multi-Site and Global Energy Reporting?

Yes. Switch is designed for organizations managing multiple buildings across regions and countries. The platform normalizes units, currencies and reporting periods to deliver consistent portfolio-wide reporting and executive dashboards.

How Does Energy Benchmarking Improve Building Performance?

Energy benchmarking allows organizations to compare building performance across their portfolio and identify sites with unusually high energy consumption. Switch provides portfolio benchmarking that helps prioritize improvements, reduce costs and support continuous operational optimization.

Why Is Trusted Energy Data Important for ESG Reporting?

Reliable ESG reporting depends on accurate and consistent energy data. When information is incomplete or inconsistent, organizations may struggle to measure performance or demonstrate progress. Switch creates a trusted energy data foundation that supports confident reporting, auditing and sustainability decision-making.
