Technology Transfer from the University of Oxford

Navetas - Formerly Intelligent Sustainable Energy

www.navetas.com

ISE is a spin out company formed between Navetas Energy Management and the University of Oxford and the creator of revolutionary technologies to help people reduce and manage their energy consumption. Faced with rising energy bills and increasing environmental pressures, consumers are keener than ever to reduce the amount of energy that they consume. However, whilst we can all follow simple rules such as turning off lights and not leaving the TV on standby, the reality is that most people do not have a clear understanding of how they use energy. ISE’s technology changes this giving you fully itemised energy bills just like the itemised phone bill that you get from your phone company.

The core of the ISE solution is the intelligent energy monitor which connects to the energy supply at a single point. Using patented artifical intelligence and signal processing techniques developed over a number of years at Oxford University, the system analyses the electricity supply and calculates the power consumption of each appliance without the need for any other sensors. This information can then be communicated to the consumer through a variety of methods including local in-home displays, web portals and itemised billing services.

In 2010 ISE merged with one of their key investors to become Navetas Energy Management.
