Central Energy Management in Industrial Zones: 50 Facilities on One Screen

SolarTools Teknik Ekibi2 min read

Key Takeaways

  • All meter data of 50+ facilities is monitored from a single central dashboard.
  • The tenant portal simplifies transparent billing and dispute management.
  • Loss/theft is detected in real time via transformer-meter balance.
  • The responsible parcel for reactive overshoot is identified instantly.
  • Green OIZ carbon reporting is generated automatically.

Organized industrial zones form the backbone of Turkey's manufacturing capacity. Housing hundreds or thousands of tenants, these zones are a city-sized system in terms of energy infrastructure. Managing this system with manual or scattered tools is no longer sustainable, both technically and legally.

The 4 Core Problems of OIZ Energy Management

First problem: not being able to measure tenant-based consumption fairly and transparently. Second problem: not being able to detect distribution losses (loss/theft) in the grid. Third problem: not being able to find the responsible parcel while reactive power charges affect the entire OIZ. Fourth problem: not being able to report carbon savings data for the Green OIZ certificate.

Central Dashboard: 50 Facilities, One Screen

The SolarTools OIZ solution collects the meter data of all parcels on a central platform. The OIZ manager monitors the real-time power demand map, zone-wide reactive power status and tenant-based consumption rankings from a single screen. When there is abnormal consumption or reactive overshoot at any parcel, a notification is delivered instantly.

Tenant Portal: Transparent Billing

Thanks to dedicated portal access for each tenant, tenants see their own consumption, reactive power status and invoice components. This transparency both reduces dispute cases and encourages tenants to contribute to energy efficiency.

Distribution Losses and Loss/Theft Detection

Transformer-meter balance analysis calculates the loss/theft ratio within the zone. The difference between the energy produced or purchased and the energy delivered to tenants is monitored in real time. Loss/theft detection directly protects OIZ revenues.

Green OIZ Transformation and Carbon Reporting

Under the Ministry of Environment's Green OIZ standards, reporting energy consumption and renewable energy ratios is increasingly becoming mandatory. SolarTools automated reports produce the annual carbon footprint calculation within minutes and accelerate certification processes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can existing old meters be integrated into the system?

The vast majority of electronic meters with an RS485 or optical port can integrate with SolarTools. Mechanical meters require conversion to smart meters.

How many concurrent users does the system support?

The SolarTools SaaS architecture places no technical limit on concurrent users; OIZ managers and all tenants can access the platform at the same time.

Is there special pricing for OIZs?

Yes. Special enterprise packages are available based on zone size and meter count. Contact us via our contact page for details.
