How it works
From the outlet to the bill, in four parts.
01 Outlet
The outlet
Each outlet has its own smart switch, which measures its electricity use. Residents know an outlet as a Bay. A QR label on the outlet shows which one it is: scan it to start.
02 Gateway
The Ampwise Gateway
The Gateway sits at the building. It collects measurements from the smart switches and passes them to Ampwise. If the internet drops, the Gateway keeps outlets as they were. It is designed to store readings for up to seven days and send them when the connection returns.
03 App
The app
Residents sign in at app.ampwise.energy to see usage, the price and bills.
04 Bill
The bill
Usage is allocated to the resident. The building receives records for reimbursement.
05 Roles
Who does what
- Ampwise installs the service with a licensed electrician and supports it.
- Residents use the outlet and pay for their usage.
- The building asks Ampwise to invite residents or end access.
