Integrate EV charging into your buildings BMS system

EV Charging is rapidly becoming a major part of a buildings energy consumption and will only increase.

This video is a great explanation of how you can integrate EV charging into your buildings BMS system to best manage your EV Charging and re-charging for usage.

For more information please contact us.

New functionality added to our OCPP to Modbus TCP&RTU Protocol Translator

We implement Smart Charging Operations based on charging profiles to combine usage priority, schedules and power limitation in the EV charger from the Modbus BMS.

The OCPP to Modbus Protocol Translator offers direct integration of up to 20 Electric Vehicle’s charging stations over OCPP 1.6 into any Modbus RTU or TCP project. Integrate Electric Vehicles Charging points based on OCPP 1.6 with any Modbus RTU or TCP controller or connect the chargers to an external OCPP Central System and monitor them via Modbus.

What’s new:

Smart Charging operations to monitor, manage and restrict the use of charging devices describing time intervals with power/current limits to optimize energy consumption.

OCPP Smart Charging profiles are a combination of usage priority, schedules and power limitation. The BMS can create and manage these profiles, to be stacked and merged in the EV charger to combine complex charging profiles.

Now it’s your turn, provide a full energy management integration of the EV parking area creating and managing these profiles from your Modbus BMS or BEMS.

  • Optimization of energy usage in the parking area AND in the whole building
  • Priority charging times and power levels for the vehicles connected
  • Scalability of the EV charging area, adding more charging spots to the EV parking area.

Get ready for the EV revolution, integrate Electric Vehicles Charging points operations in your Building Management System.

Why Future Focus Energy Limited?

Having founded Future Focus energy some four and a half years ago, I am proud to outline briefly below, how far we have come and what makes us that little bit unique, along with the impending launch of our new website, these are very exciting times for our team.

Future Focus Energy are an Energy Management company, who provide the latest energy metering and monitoring solutions supported by our own in-house intuitive software “Energy Effects”, to the Retail, Commercial, Industrial and Facilities Management sectors.
The metering and monitoring systems we provide allow tiered secure access so that your energy can be effectively monitored.

Remember The Golden rule though – Before you can save Energy – Your firstly need to understand when and where it is being consumed, that’s why by Humanising our software, and making it easily understandable to all, it allows our customers to engage fully with all of their colleagues and maximise energy reductions and savings.

We offer site surveys to determine most beneficial monitoring solution. Panel build and manufacture, Installation and commissioning services. The systems provided using some of the latest and most compact logging solutions, allows the user to view their energy consumption from any web enable device, from a PC to Tablet to Smart Phone our In-house software, “Energy Effects” Humanises energy monitoring, making it understandable an easy to use for all user levels.

Future Focus also offer Energy Monitoring solutions for projects who require compliance under the Code for Sustainable Homes, allowing credits for Electricity and Heat to be gained.
Future Focus Energy provide a one stop solutions for the following sectors:
Retail – From supermarkets to high street stores – enabling users to monitor specific areas and systems within their whole portfolio.

Industrial – Enabling production processes and equipment to be effectively managed
Utilities – Assist with preventative maintenance – identify via text or email alerts when field equipment ie pumps are starting to use more energy and preventative maintenance can be scheduled preventing costly breakdown
Facilities management – Enabling effective building management to be introduced, and for landlords fully compliant MID metering can be installed allowing tenant energy recharge to be accurately and legally invoiced as required.

If you would like to have a chat or discuss how Future focus can possibly help your organisation reduce your energy, please just drop us a line , we would love to hear from you.

Humanised Energy Monitoring Software

To coincide with the launch of our new website in the next few weeks, we are very proud and excited to be releasing our latest software “Energy Effects” Developed in-house by our experienced energy monitoring team, we thought it was time for something new.

What’s different or unique you may ask – well quite simply we have “Humanised” it as we like to say. I believe it is one of the easiest packages to navigate and understand, because all said and done, if the system either appears to busy or complicated the user will not be engaged and will therefore only log in and use when they have to, rather than embracing it.

“Energy Effects” will offer several services from simple customer focused dashboards located in reception areas, to traditional analysis and reporting, tenant invoicing module, even instantaneous monitoring will be available, all of which can be accessed from any web enabled device. the big difference is how it engages users.

From Nationwide retail and commercial portfolio’s to manufacturing facilities, we believe this will engage users from complete software monitoring novice to experienced energy and project managers.

Using the latest meters and logging technologies, we will be able to offer a full turnkey solution or alternatively we are more than happy to work with organisations that already have metering on site, but would now like to be able to monitor and analyse their energy consumption.

All very exciting and I will update more details over the coming weeks, but if anyone has any questions, please just drop me a line

New Website

Hello everyone, we are pleased to announce the launch of our new website, www.futurefocusenergy.co.uk which has been updated and now includes a link to one of our live Energy Effects Dashboards which can be easily set up and displayed on the new generation of wireless enabled smart televisions in Reception or staff colleague areas by simply connecting to the local wifi. It will automatically update to display the last full half hours energy data, and can include your organisations Twitter feed, as well as up to date BBC news feeds and local weather.

We strongly believe that by displaying all the information on both our dashboards and reporting software, in a simple intuitive format, with easy navigation more users will engage with the software and use the platform more often, thus identifying where and when the energy is being used. All our reports provide Kwh, £’s costs and CO2 data.

If you have a moment, please do have a look through the services we can offer, and if you think we may be able to help you with your energy monitoring, be it metering systems or one of our software packages that could enable you to monitor the data from meters or systems you already have installed, just drop us a line and we would love to hear from you.

Thanks Paul
