Energy keeps getting more expensive
Electricity prices for businesses are rising, and energy has become a line item that directly affects margins and export competitiveness.
Resource intelligence for industrial and commercial facilities
Every resource in your facility, measured and under control.
OMNI IQ meters electricity per phase and per machine, turns the readings into clear recommendations and reports, and takes your team to concrete savings. The platform comes with the engineers who install it and interpret it. Water and gas are next.

Why now
Your power bill is one number. Your plant has hundreds of loads.
Without metering per machine and per shift you cannot see where energy goes, what runs when nobody works, and which investment actually pays back.
What is energy monitoring?
Energy monitoring is the continuous, automatic metering of energy consumption at the level of the facility, the switchboard and individual machines, with history and analysis. Instead of one monthly bill you get a minute-by-minute picture: who consumes, when, how much, and what changed. It is the basis of every saving, of an energy management system, and of checking whether a measure actually worked.
The law requires energy management
Serbia's Law on Energy Efficiency and Rational Use of Energy and the 2022 Regulation require larger consumers to run an energy management system.
Decisions without data are guesses
Replacing motors, compensating reactive power or moving shifts: without metering you know neither the baseline nor the result.
Savings
Where the savings hide
The biggest savings rarely come from one large investment. They come from consumption nobody sees. These are the places OMNI IQ watches in every facility.
Off-shift consumption
Machines, compressors and lighting running at night, at weekends or between shifts while production is idle.
OMNI IQ compares consumption with the facility's operating hours and names the machines with the highest night load.
Peak demand
Part of a business electricity bill depends on the highest load in the billing period, not only on the energy used.
The platform records every new peak and shows who caused it, so large machines can be started in sequence.
Reactive energy
A low power factor means excess reactive energy, which is billed separately and puts extra load on the installation.
Power factor and reactive power are tracked for the facility, every switchboard and every machine, as the basis for compensation.
Equipment that uses too much
A machine that consumes more than similar ones, or more than it used to, often signals a fault or poor tuning.
Energy Manager compares equipment with its peers and tracks its health over time.
Growth nobody notices
Consumption rarely jumps at once. It creeps up week by week until it becomes the new normal.
The platform tracks weekly growth and the 30-day trend and warns before the increase shows on the bill.
Schedules and habits
When machines start, how shifts change over, how long heating and cooling run.
Alongside the data, our consultants propose operating schedules with lower peaks and less idle consumption.
We do not promise a percentage up front. Every savings estimate in OMNI IQ is calculated from your facility's measured data.
Platform
From measurement to decision, in one place
OMNI IQ is modular. You start with metering; insight, recommendations and reports build on the same data.
Real-time metering
Power, energy, current and power factor per phase, for every switchboard and every machine. A live single-line diagram shows what is happening right now.
Analytics
An analysis workbench: compare periods, shifts and loads, load profiles, peak demand, and data export.
Energy Manager
Recommendations with root cause, estimated impact and priority. Every claim rests on measured data, with no invented percentages.
Industrial knowledge (OIIG)
An industrial knowledge graph links your processes and equipment to the consumption patterns of your industry, so you know what is normal and what is not.
Alerts and notifications
An offline meter or unusual consumption reaches you by e-mail or web push, with escalation, quiet hours and a daily digest.
Reports
PDF reports for management and maintenance, in Serbian or English, with an executive summary and scheduled delivery.
Assistant
Ask about your facility in plain language. The assistant answers only from the data the platform holds.
Pilot project
A questionnaire and a mobile portal for site surveys, with photos, and current-transformer sizing from the breaker ratings.
Energy Manager
Your digital energy manager
Energy Manager analyses the metering continuously and turns it into concrete tasks: what is wrong, why, what it costs and what to do. Your team decides; the platform tracks the work through to the result.
- 1
Detection
Analyses run all the time: off-shift consumption, new peaks, consumption growth, power factor, equipment and metering gaps.
- 2
Root cause
For every finding the platform looks for the likely cause, such as a machine running without production or a phase imbalance.
- 3
Impact and priority
Estimated impact in kWh and money, together with the effort to implement, decides what comes first.
- 4
Implementation
A recommendation is acknowledged, assigned to an owner and tracked to the end, with a history of every change.

Six facility scores
Energy health
Whether consumption behaves as before or keeps growing.
Efficiency
How efficiently the facility uses energy for the work it does.
Power quality
Power factor and reactive energy.
Equipment health
Machines using more than their peers or than they used to.
Monitoring reliability
Whether every meter sends complete data.
Cost optimization
How much room for savings is still left.
Grid and installation
Power quality and stability
Savings are not the only reason to meter. The same data show whether the installation is healthy, whether the load is balanced, and whether there is room for new machines.
Power factor
For the facility, every switchboard and every machine, with a warning when it falls below the limit.
Phase balance
L1, L2 and L3 load side by side. Imbalance stresses the installation and shortens motor life.
Live voltage and current
Per-phase values for every meter, refreshed in real time.
Load and headroom
How loaded a switchboard is against its capacity, and how much room is left for new loads.
Correct sizing
Current transformers are chosen from the breaker ratings and the actual load, so the metering is accurate.
Metering reliability
An offline meter, a communication loss or incomplete data shows up and is reported at once.
How it works
Four steps to the first saving
The same team takes you from the first conversation to the first recommendations.
- 1
Site survey
A short questionnaire and a walk through the facility: switchboards, key loads, shifts. The result is a metering plan.
- 2
Metering installation
Current clamps go around the existing cables, with no rewiring. Each meter is configured in minutes and connects to the platform by itself.
- 3
Insight
From day one you see consumption per phase, machine and shift, live and over time.
- 4
Savings
Energy Manager proposes measures, our engineers review them with you, and reports show what was done and what it achieved.
Progress
Savings you can see and prove
Every measure has a baseline and a result. OMNI IQ keeps both, so management sees progress, not just cost.
Baseline
The first weeks of metering become the reference for everything that follows.
Scores over time
Six facility scores and their trend show whether you are heading the right way.
Scheduled reports
Weekly or monthly PDF reports reach management and maintenance on their own, in the chosen language.
Measurement and verification
Savings are calculated against the baseline and operating conditions, not guessed.
CO₂
Lower consumption is also shown as lower emissions, for sustainability reporting.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is OMNI IQ?
OMNI IQ is a platform for metering and analysing resource consumption in industrial and commercial facilities, developed by SolarLink d.o.o., Serbia. It meters electricity per phase and per load, gives savings recommendations and reports, and comes with engineering and consulting support. Water and gas metering are in development.
What is energy monitoring?
Energy monitoring is the continuous, automatic metering of energy consumption at the level of the facility, the switchboard and individual machines, with history and analysis. It shows who consumes, when and how much, and it is the basis of every saving and of an energy management system.
What exactly does Energy Manager do?
It analyses the metering continuously and finds off-shift consumption, new peak demand, consumption growth, low power factor and equipment that uses more than it should. For every finding it looks for the cause, estimates the impact and proposes a measure. Recommendations are acknowledged, assigned and tracked through to verification.
Does OMNI IQ replace the energy manager?
No, it gives the energy manager a tool: metering, analysis, recommendations and reports in one place. If you do not have an energy manager, our consultants help you with that work.
How do you prove the savings?
By comparison with the baseline from the first weeks of metering, under the same operating conditions. The result shows in the facility scores and in the reports.
What is power factor and why does it matter?
Power factor shows how much of the current actually does useful work. When it is low, the grid carries more reactive energy, which is billed separately and puts extra load on cables and transformers. OMNI IQ meters it for the facility, the switchboard and the machine.
What hardware is needed?
Three-phase OWON PC341-W-MQTT Wi-Fi meters with current clamps, installed in the existing switchboards, and a Wi-Fi network on site. The meters send encrypted data directly to the platform.
Does installation require rewiring?
No. The current clamps are split-core and go around the existing cables. A licensed electrician installs them, and configuring one meter takes a few minutes.
How soon do I see the first data?
As soon as a meter is configured and joins the facility's Wi-Fi, usually within a minute or two. History and analysis build up from that moment.
Is my company obliged to run an energy management system?
Under Serbia's 2022 Regulation, obligors include manufacturing companies consuming at least 25 GWh per site per year and trade and service companies consuming at least 7 GWh. We are happy to check your case.
How much can I save?
It depends on the facility, and we do not promise a percentage up front. That is why we start with metering: recommendations and impact estimates in OMNI IQ rest only on your facility's measured data.
Does OMNI IQ meter water and gas?
Electricity is available today. Water and gas metering are in development, and the platform was designed for every resource from the start.
Which languages does the platform support?
The interface, reports and e-mail notifications are in Serbian and English, and every user chooses their own language.
