Pilot program

Start narrow. Learn what matters.

An Enervtek pilot is designed around one site, one costly question, and one agreed way to judge whether the work helped.

The approach

A measured path from question to evidence.

A useful pilot has a clear boundary, realistic data access, and plant staff who can interpret what the signals mean. Its scope and duration are agreed after discovery.

The outcome may be an improved decision, a quantified operating change, or a clear finding that the available data is insufficient. Each is valuable when documented honestly.

Pilot sequence

Six steps, defined with the site.

01

Discovery call

Bring a plant leader and technical lead together around one recurring, material question, the current workflow, and who would use the result.

02

Site & data review

Review accessible meters, inverters, PLC exports, solar and grid feeds, bills, tariffs, output, and event records. Confirm access and permissions.

03

Joint pilot definition

Agree on the measurement boundary, baseline, data-quality threshold, review cadence, responsibilities, and one primary success metric.

04

Limited deployment

Connect existing feeds first. Consider selected commercial sub-meters only where they answer a valuable unanswered question and installation is approved.

05

Findings & engineer review

Show traceable signals, false positives, operator explanations, possible actions, and a before-and-after comparison where defensible.

06

Written decision

Report what was learned, quantified results only where supported, unresolved limitations, and a commercial next step if the pilot created value.

What the site contributes

People, context, and permission.

  • A plant and technical contact for discovery and review
  • Access to agreed energy and operational records
  • Explanations of shifts, products, stoppages, and existing workflows
  • Approval for any integration or instrumentation work
What we agree together

A credible evaluation.

  • Measurement boundary and baseline period
  • Minimum data quality and missing-data rules
  • One primary metric, such as kWh per good unit or investigation time
  • Review cadence, responsibilities, and reporting format
Pilot FAQ

Scope first. Promises after evidence.

How long does a pilot take?

Duration depends on the site, its data access, and the question being tested. We agree the schedule after discovery.

Is new hardware always required?

No. We first review existing feeds. Selected commercial sub-meters may be considered when they answer a high-value gap and the site approves installation.

What result should we expect?

We choose a primary success metric together. The report states what was measured, what changed, and what remains uncertain; savings are never guaranteed.

How is pricing handled?

Commercial terms are discussed after a site assessment and a defined scope.
