Electricity Monitoring for Real Estate: 8 Eng Hoon Street Case Study

Managing electricity consumption across a multi-tenant property can be challenging when utility data is collected manually. Property managers need accurate information to understand electricity consumption, simplify tenant billing, and improve day-to-day building management.

At 8 Eng Hoon Street, Singapore, Ampotech implemented a connected Electricity Monitoring and water metering solution to provide centralized visibility across residential and commercial units.

The project demonstrates how smart metering and cloud-based monitoring can help real estate owners and property managers manage utilities more efficiently while creating a foundation for better energy efficiency and saving energy.

The Challenge: Managing Utilities Across Multiple Units

8 Eng Hoon Street is a newly constructed rental property comprising 12 residential units and 2 commercial units. With multiple tenants sharing the property, the client needed a reliable way to monitor utility consumption at the unit level.

The key requirements included:

• Monitoring electricity and water consumption by unit
• Improving visibility of tenant utility usage
• Simplifying utility data collection and billing
• Providing remote access to metering data
• Creating a centralized platform for property management

Traditional manual meter reading can be time-consuming and makes it difficult for property teams to access consumption information in real time. For a multi-tenant building, having centralized and accessible utility data can make property operations more transparent and efficient.

The Solution: Connected Electricity Monitoring

Ampotech deployed an integrated electricity and water metering solution connected to AmpoCloud.

For electricity monitoring, 6 power meters were installed across the residential and commercial units. The meters connect through AmpoHub/gateway infrastructure to AmpoCloud, where the utility data is consolidated and displayed through a centralized dashboard.

The project also included:

• 16 water meters
• 6 power meters
• AmpoHub/gateway infrastructure
• AmpoCloud cloud monitoring platform
• Centralized utility data
• Remote monitoring and billing capabilities

This connected architecture allows property teams to move from manual utility collection toward digital electricity consumption monitoring.

How Electricity Monitoring Supports Better Building Management

With a centralized Electricity Monitoring system, property managers can access electricity consumption information without relying solely on manual meter readings.

Through AmpoCloud, the property team can remotely access utility data and gain visibility into consumption across individual units. The platform also supports utility billing and consumption analysis.

This can help property teams:

1. Improve Electricity Consumption Visibility

Instead of relying on periodic manual readings, electricity data is consolidated within a centralized platform.

Better visibility allows property managers to understand consumption patterns across different units and identify areas that may require further investigation.

2. Simplify Utility Billing

For multi-tenant real estate, accurate utility data is important for transparent tenant billing.

The AmpoCloud platform consolidates metering data and supports automated billing workflows, reducing the administrative burden associated with manual data collection.

3. Enable Remote Utility Monitoring

Property teams can access utility information remotely through AmpoCloud.

This provides greater operational visibility without requiring staff to physically check meters across the property.

4. Support Energy Efficiency

Accurate consumption data is an important foundation for improving energy efficiency.

By understanding how electricity is being consumed across different units, property managers can make more informed decisions about building operations and future energy-management initiatives.

Rather than simply focusing on saving energy, digital monitoring provides the data needed to identify consumption patterns and potential opportunities for improvement.

Results: Centralized Utility Monitoring for the Property

Following implementation, 8 Eng Hoon Street gained a centralized digital platform for monitoring electricity and water consumption across the property.

Through AmpoCloud, the property team can remotely access utility data and gain greater visibility into consumption across individual units.

The project therefore provides a digital foundation for:

Electricity Monitoring → Consumption Visibility → Utility Management → Billing → Energy Efficiency

The AmpoCloud dashboard shown on page 3 of the case study provides views for water and electricity monitoring, billing, and consumption analysis, demonstrating how the collected metering data can be used within a centralized property-management workflow.

Smart Electricity Monitoring for Real Estate

The 8 Eng Hoon Street project illustrates how connected metering can support modern building and real estate management.

For properties with multiple residential and commercial tenants, an Electricity Monitoring system can provide the visibility required to understand consumption, improve billing processes, and support more efficient utility management.

As property owners and developers look for practical ways to improve energy efficiency and save energy, having reliable electricity consumption data is an important first step.

With connected meters, gateway infrastructure, and AmpoCloud, Ampotech helps transform utility data into actionable visibility for property management.
