THE MEDIA VOICE OF THE GLOBAL MARINA INDUSTRY

Transparent billing and control

The rising cost of energy impacts both marina operators and berth holders. This high operational cost makes accurate billing crucial for marina profitability and customer satisfaction as customers scrutinise their payments more closely than ever and marinas need to ensure they know who uses every kilowatt.

Smarter Technologies’ smart dockside pedestals allow berth holders to remotely monitor consumption in real time and receive accurate reports on customisable time periods, creating a connected hub for smart marina management.
Berth holders’ energy expenses can accrue quickly depending on the size of their craft and the equipment used, and they want assurance that on-board equipment is running and batteries are being charged without unexpected costs. Smart dockside utilities pedestals provide user-friendly functionality and users can scan a QR code to download the SmarterView app, allowing them to control their electricity, view real-time consumption and costs, and generate individual consumption reports based on actual usage.
As high costs can mount quickly, especially with larger vessels and energy-intensive equipment, accurate re-billing is essential. Smart dockside pedestals eliminate the need for manual processes and ensure billing is based on actual, accurate consumption, providing peace of mind that energy costs are billed correctly.
Real-time data also allows for intelligent monitoring and alerting throughout the entire estate on the same real-time IoT platform, Orion.
