DC and MOP Contracts
Sourcing the right Data Collection (DC) and Meter Operator (MOP) contracts will help you reduce your energy consumption and costs.
Receiving accurate and timely data of energy usage enables us to better procure, monitor, reduce, and manage your energy requirements.
For businesses that consume more than 100kW, half-hourly (HH) metering is mandatory and is a legal requirement for all half-hourly supplied electricity meters. Data can be remotely accessed on a daily basis by specialist Data Collectors (DC), additionally, Meter Operator (MOP) contracts cover the supply of meters, their maintenance and the necessary telecommunications for sending consumption data to your chosen supplier.
Sourcing the right DC and MOP contracts will help you better understand how much energy you are using and when you are using it, so you can reduce consumption and costs.
There are over 20 Meter Operators in the UK, all with varying levels of service delivery. Finding a more suitable agreement and combining many of your existing contracts will also make MOPs more manageable.
