Our advanced Sustainable Energy Intelligence Dashboard offers Heat Network Technical Assurance Scheme HNTAS dashboard for monitoring, analysis and optimisation, helping clients oversee heat network operations, performance and focus on how and where improvements can be made.
Our dashboard and data systems measure all key performance indicators outlined by HNTAS, including: network efficiency, heat loss within the system, supply temperatures, return temperatures, pump energy usage, parasitic energy and generation system efficiencies.
Systems integrate with all energy systems, equipment, sensors, BMS, meters and existing infrastructure. HNTAS dashboard tool creates automated reporting and tracks how network and system improvements are designed to demonstrate performance to stakeholders and operators.
As the heat network HNTAS standards evolve, the dashboard easily adapts to the new regulations, so our systems are future-proofed.

HNTAS regulation
Despite evolving standards, our dashboard is fully equipped to monitor these metrics and more, giving you a head start in optimising your system.
With real-time data clearly displayed, our dashboard highlights network improvement areas for HNTAS KPI benchmarks, allowing proactive steps to address inefficiencies, reduce costs, enhance overall performance, and ultimately to comply with regulations.
Data acquisition and performance reporting
Using all types of data protocols our energy dashboards collect data from Modbus, Bacnet, MQTT, API, etc. and using secure data systems inline with our Cyber Essentials plus accreditations are brokered and processed.
Large data fields are managed in cloud databases in a coded system that allows automated and rapid access and analytics of the data in frequencies of seconds, 5 minute, 30 minutes and hourly data.
From the structured databases, analysis and performance KPI data for energy centres, networks, substations and HIUs is stored as proxy information enabling reporting and targeted interventions to optimise settings and improve efficiency.
Optimisation
Digital system optimisation helps energy utility companies in the transition towards smarter and more sustainable practices.
Our intelligence dashboards will help you improve performance from communal and district heat networks, as well as ambient loop systems. Provide regular data reporting of operation and accurately capture detailed data from your system to monitor and enhance and optimise heat network performance.
From the management of district heating and cooling systems to the forecasting of energy demand, we develop models and software applications that cover the entire energy value chain, from generation to distribution and end use.
Sustainable Energy’s solutions allow for the modelling and forecasting of potential scenarios, managing peak demand, minimising leakage and optimising the efficiency of energy plants and networks.
We provide step-by-step heat network optimisation, guiding through assessing heat networks, identifying problems, implementing short terms low cost improvements, through to planning longer-term improvements that require more capital investment.
Our systems identify critical inefficiencies and operational issues, facilitating the prioritisation of actions that quickly and effectively stabilise the network, such as closing open bypass flows.
Displaying and analysing real-time performance data, including flow and return temperatures in the network, allowing the identification of limiting factors to network temperature reduction.
Provides insights into energy centre operations, supporting efficiency upgrades or operational adjustments that can enhance overall performance.
Heat network information mapping
Our heat network dashboards map the physical buried and overground networks in GIS systems and display the attributes in our dashboards.
This allows interrogation of assets and well as helping to Identify areas in the network with highest heat losses, helping to target improvements with most significant impact.
Event & fault management
A fully functional event and fault log module allows operator management system that is flexible and configurable outside of any specialist BMS software.
Alarms can be set as critical, warning and informational and have individual logic applied and user groups assigned. This event and fault logging system connects with triage systems for operator alerts.
Our fault management systems also include acknowledgement logs to provide a fully accountable operations and management system which records all fault times, fault types, acknowledgement details and fault cleared information.
Data downloads for fault data, uptime and response times are covered for energy centres and substations.
Customer viewer access
Customer access and logins provide information for the heat connections and heat interfaces and meter assets. Monthly billing information, actual realtime consumption, VWART and meter information is all available as exclusive access.
Operator & engineer pages
Analyse heat loss, uncontrolled flow, volume weighted average return and flow temperatures and consumption.
