IoT Services for Real Time Data and Smarter Operations

Cortexo connects thousands of devices to central systems so data can be monitored, analysed and acted on in near real time.

Our secure and scalable IoT platform gathers data from many sources and turns it into clear signals for performance, optimisation and control.

In the energy world, IoT is often talked about as DERMS, a Distributed Energy Resource Management System. At its heart, DERMS is simply a focused form of IoT. Cortexo’s platform sits behind energy technology, receiving high-frequency data from meters, sensors and transformers to show exactly what is happening on the network at any moment.

When something changes, the platform reacts. It can trigger alerts, point out trends, or send a control signal back to a device so equipment adjusts in real time. This creates a smarter, more responsive system that supports reliability, safety and better use of energy resources.

Cortexo’s IoT capability also extends beyond the energy sector. The platform supports any industry that needs to collect, process and respond to near real time data at scale.

Current IoT services include:

• Home Energy Management
  Cortexo connects to a number of Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) which in turn send commands to connected hot water, heat pump and inverter (solar and battery) systems. The HEMS has optimisation software provided by Cortexo to use energy in the home efficiently.
• Vehicle tracking & water monitoring
  Cortexo works with partners in the UK to deliver large scale vehicle tracking across the UK, USA and Europe. Camera feeds are processed using AI image recognition to support regulatory activity, improve traffic management and help commercial fleets optimise their movement. The same camera technology also monitors water overflows and spillages using similar AI based image analysis.
• Electricity meter data management
  Cortexo receives thousands of individual data sets from electricity meters in New Zealand to provide reporting data analysis for the New Zealand Ministry of Education.
• Low voltage network monitoring
  Cortexo supports LV monitoring devices supplied by a local monitoring device manufacturer. Electricity distribution businesses across New Zealand use these devices to gain clearer visibility of their low voltage networks, detect issues earlier and manage network performance with more confidence.
