Tenant Energy Sub-metering & Billing
The Challenge
A real-estate company managing 5 commercial buildings (corporate offices and showrooms) in Delhi/NCR had 15 tenants sharing utility connections. Energy billing required facility staff to manually read sub-meters twice daily, enter readings into spreadsheets, send them to a central office, and wait for finance teams to reconcile and generate invoices. The process was tedious, error-prone, and caused billing disputes with tenants.
The Solution
YuDash connected energy sub-meters to LYNX gateways via Modbus RS485, streaming per-tenant consumption data to the YuFourIA platform in real time. Automated billing reports are generated at the end of each billing cycle, showing per-tenant consumption, unit rates, and invoice amounts — eliminating manual reads entirely. Tenants can view their own consumption dashboards through role-gated access.
How It Works
Data flow from field to cloud
Energy Sub-meters (per tenant)
kWh, kW, power factor via Modbus RS485
YuDash LYNX (per building)
Multi-slave Modbus polling, local logging
4G/LTE
15-minute data push to cloud
YuFourIA Platform
Per-tenant dashboards + automated billing reports
Results
- Eliminated twice-daily manual meter reads across 5 buildings
- Automated billing reports — finance team receives a ready-to-invoice summary
- Zero billing disputes: tenants access their own consumption history
- System scalable to new buildings and tenants without additional engineering
