Energy & Plant Performance Analytical Dashboard
Delivering a Bespoke Multi-Site Energy & Plant Performance Dashboard
Liverpool University Hospitals Foundation Trust (LUHFT) wanted a single, unified platform to visualise energy use and plant performance across its diverse estate. The challenge was clear: provide a user-friendly, highly analytical dashboard that could integrate multiple sites and deliver real-time insights to support decision-making.
WISE Controls designed and implemented a bespoke server-driven dashboard, bringing together live data streams from the Royal Liverpool University Hospital, Broadgreen Hospital, and the Retained Estate Buildings. The system provides instant visibility of performance trends, fault diagnostics, and energy consumption across the Trust’s estate, all within a single, easy-to-use interface.
The dashboard has been widely welcomed across LUHFT, giving teams the ability to make faster, evidence-based decisions while identifying opportunities for energy reduction and efficiency improvements. Its success has already sparked significant interest and positive feedback across the Trust.
“With the expertise of Phil and Mia we have been able to develop our multi-site dashboard that provides live data reporting for both energy usage and operational maintenance information. A proactive approach has enabled the Trust to reduce our energy usage and provide early warnings of plant failure reducing any impact on departments.”
