FAQs
Can I connect the Nextalink to any type of meter?
Yes! In addition to analog and smart meters, the Nextalink measures the generation of solar panels, district heating meters, and EV charging stations. Nextalink works independently of meter type, brand, or supplier – preventing vendor lock-in.
Can I integrate my current tool or software with the Nextalink?
? Absolutely! Our software EnergyGrip is hardware agnostic. This means that we also read and display devices from third parties via APIs in the dashboard. Additionally, all EnergyGrip data can be shared via an automatic connection with existing systems, infrastructure, or business processes. This digital connection works based on REST APIs, automatically sharing data from EnergyGrip. Through these REST APIs, business processes such as impact reports and automatic billing can be set up.
What is EnergyGrip?
EnergyGrip is Aurum’s Energy Management System (EMS). It is a dashboard that collects and enriches energy consumption and generation data from multiple sources, transforming it into actionable insights. The platform manages electricity, district heating, gas, water, and solar energy in one centralized environment, offering analytics, anomaly detection, reporting, and billing capabilities.
Which meters and energy sources can EnergyGrip connect to?
EnergyGrip can connect to a wide range of data sources, including smart and analogue meters, district heating meters, gas and water meters, solar panels, and electric vehicle charging stations. Combined with the Nextalink gateway, it operates independently of meter brand or type, while existing digital metering equipment can be connected directly.
Is EnergyGrip hardware agnostic?
Yes. EnergyGrip is hardware agnostic, meaning it is not tied to a specific meter type or manufacturer. If you already have digital metering equipment, Aurum can integrate it into the platform. Devices from third party suppliers can also be connected through APIs and visualized within the dashboard.
Can I integrate EnergyGrip with my own systems?
Yes. EnergyGrip integrates with existing software and infrastructure through a REST API. This allows data to be shared automatically with business systems for processes such as automated billing and sustainability reporting, reducing the need for manual data processing.
What is the Aurum Framework?
The Aurum Framework is the technology platform behind EnergyGrip. It collects, enriches, and transforms large volumes of data into valuable insights. The framework provides data collection, device configuration management, wireless over the air (OTA) software and firmware updates, continuous monitoring with alerts, encrypted data security, and a modular architecture that supports future expansion.
Can I share EnergyGrip data with end users?
Yes. Through the EnergyFlip app, available as a white label solution, data from the EnergyGrip dashboard can be shared directly with end users. They gain easy access to their own energy consumption data, enabling them to make informed decisions and reduce unnecessary energy consumption.
Does EnergyGrip support wireless software updates?
Yes. Through the Aurum Framework, EnergyGrip supports wireless over the air (OTA) updates for both software and firmware. Updates can be deployed remotely without requiring physical access to the equipment, making it easier to manage large numbers of connected devices.
