In today’s dynamic business scenario, efficient management of energy resources is not only a priority, but a key differentiator for success.

Companies face the crossroads of balancing the growing demand for energy with the prevailing need to reduce costs and minimize environmental impact.

In this context, Erco Energía positions itself as a strategic ally that understands the unique challenges of the commercial and industrial sector and offers sustainable and personalized solutions to overcome them.

One of the main challenges in the transformation of companies is the control and monitoring of their energy resources.

In Panama, we constantly hear of problems related to erroneous charges and low confidence in the different surcharges of the electricity service distribution companies.

In many cases we have seen how, due to the lack of evidence and knowledge of the electrical variables of a system, there is no other option than to accept with resignation the charges or the conditions imposed.

Therefore, given the need to be able to control and corroborate what is really happening inside the electrical system, it is important to look for intelligent management and metering alternatives.

At Erco we understand this need very well and that is why we have developed our own monitoring and management solutions, adaptable to the needs of each person or company to balance and offer the tools that allow them to defend themselves against rate increases, improper charges or billing errors that may occur.

Our solutions allow, among many others, the option to monitor variables such as consumption, the total power supplied by the conventional electrical grid or even the energy delivered by own generation systems, such as solar installations, second by second.

With this information it is possible, in addition to providing the possibility of knowing in depth the behavior of electrical systems, to make intelligent decisions such as managing power peaks.

In Panama, unlike other countries, our electricity tariff scheme includes a component called ‘demand charge’, which considers a charge for the power peaks required by many of the typical equipment of companies and industries in the country.

With Erco’s intelligent monitoring it is possible to devise advanced energy management strategies such as “peak shaving” to reduce the demand charge that weighs heavily on our customers’ bills and thus achieve considerable savings and very interesting returns that worth exploring.

At Erco we not only provide technology, but we get involved as a strategic ally that accompanies and guides the transformation process of Panamanian homes and companies.

We address key challenges and offer customized solutions, paving the way for an energy future within everyone’s reach.

By having Erco as an ally, companies and individuals not only optimize their operations and save costs, but also join a community driven by innovation and the vision of a smarter and more sustainable energy world.
