Output and consumption, tracked continuously
TodayReadings and exports, at the end of the month.
With MobapiGensets and meters tracked continuously: a deviation shows up the same day.
What your sites produce and consume.
Whether your site produces energy or consumes it, Mobapi brings together the figures for every asset, meters and files included, continuously updated. Enough to track your consumption and gather the data for your energy audit, without replacing any equipment.
What changes for energy.
The safety margin at a glance
TodayA critical temperature, checked from time to time.
With MobapiTracked continuously, with an alarm before the limit: the remaining margin can be read at any time.
Fuel oil tank levels under watch
TodayA level read by hand, a fill watched by eye.
With MobapiOne sensor per tank, an alarm before any overflow, consumption read off the chart.
Figures ready for your reports and your energy audit
TodayTables rebuilt by hand for every report.
With MobapiOutput, consumption and round readings in the same history, ready to export.
How Mobapi does it.
-
Mobapi.BOX connects to meters and gensets
It reads their measurements in read-only mode, without changing anything in the control system. The systems already connected are listed on the Legacy equipment page.
-
Mobapi.CORE normalises the figures
Consistent units, thresholds and history: a meter and a turbine can be compared on the same chart.
-
Mobapi.EYE to track and report
Trends, alarms and exports. More detail on the Platform page.
Proven in the field.
EDF in French Guiana, a client since 2017, across all its thermal generation assets.
+1,600MWh
of additional output in 8 months on one gas turbine.
Frequently asked questions.
Does Mobapi read our energy meters?
Yes, if they communicate over Modbus, over 4-20 mA or through their manufacturer’s platform. A meter that isn’t on the Compatibility page? Send us its model number.
Does Mobapi monitor generator sets and diesel gensets?
Yes. The BOX reads their controllers or their PLCs over Modbus or OPC DA, and the tank level probes through their 4-20 mA output. Output, consumption and levels are displayed with the rest of the fleet.
How do you monitor fuel oil tank levels remotely?
With one level probe per tank and a unit that sends its measurement. On tanks whose 4-20 mA probes only displayed their readings locally, a converter turned them into Modbus TCP and Mobapi’s BOX sends them over 3G/4G. Levels are displayed continuously, with a high-level alarm before any overflow.
Can we export the data for our energy reports?
Yes. Trends and tables can be exported as files, and your reporting tools can retrieve the data through the API.
Where do you find the consumption measurements to gather for an energy audit?
They often exist already, in pieces: in supplier bills, in sub-meters fitted at different times, in PLCs that count running hours, and in round readings. Mobapi reads the meters, PLCs and sensors already in place, then files these measurements in a single history, which can be exported as a file for the audit.
Does Mobapi work at a remote production site?
Yes. The BOX runs over the mobile network and keeps several months of measurements on site if the link goes down, then sends them once the network is back. The rounds app also works with no network and syncs by itself. See legacy equipment and remote sites.
How do you monitor a thermal power plant on an island or non-interconnected grid?
On a non-interconnected grid, every generation outage affects the whole grid: monitoring has to read the fleet as it stands, legacy equipment included, and hold up when the link drops. Mobapi has been working on such a grid since 2017. At one thermal power plant operator, turbines and diesel gensets were connected to the same platform.
