Bill the tenant, cut the bill and let the AI agents handle the drill.

Volts runs energy and property management on the meters and systems your buildings already have, manages your tenants from the same data, and keeps AI agents on duty. Lower building costs, improve NOI.

The result each stakeholder needs - built from the same data

Owners, operations, finance and tenants stop debating different versions of the truth and start acting on verified building data.

Scope a Pilot

See where NOI is being protected - and where it is quietly leaking.

Compare buildings by cost, variance and performance so operating and capital decisions go where they matter most.

Close billing periods without rebuilding the numbers.

Turn readings, tariffs, leases and shared costs into traceable tenant charges with fewer disputes.

Move from complaints to owned, closed work.

Catch exceptions earlier, assign the next action and follow every issue through to closure.

Recover costs with an audit trail.

See what was charged, why it was charged and what remains outstanding - without another spreadsheet reconciliation.

Prove performance, not activity.

Use weather-normalised baselines and traceable operating data to show what changed, what it saved and what still needs action - and to plan energy procurement.

Replace surprise bills with transparent charges.

Give tenants access to their own consumption, invoices and the readings behind each line - without exposing portfolio-level data.

Behind every outcome above - a capability you should explore

Volts Energy Management - portfolio overview with location tree, live consumption and cost

Where the energy goes, and what it costs.

  • Consumption per site, per floor and per tenant - in kilowatt-hours and in money
  • Day and night tariffs applied automatically, so every reading carries a price
  • Peaks, standby load and the hours worth shifting - found for you, not hunted for

Volts Property Management - portfolio summary with billing, metering health and open maintenance

Invoicing, tenants and the work in between.

  • Invoices and service charges built from real readings instead of estimates, with a billing period you close once
  • Tenants and lease agreements in one record - who occupies which space, and from when
  • Maintenance requests and work orders, from a tenant’s complaint to a closed job
  • Reports per site, per tenant and per period - scheduled, or downloaded when you need them

The reality of building automation today

Premium-priced hardware. Proprietary lock-in. Spreadsheet-level outcomes.

  • Costly to install.
  • Harder to extend.
  • Still disconnected from the work that follows.

The project

You bought building automation.

A vendor supplied the controllers, sensors and software, installed them and handed the building over. Most of the budget went on hardware, long before anyone saw a single report.

Engineering and commissioning

Spent before the first report

Building management system (BMS)

It works. On the vendor’s terms.

It runs heating, cooling and ventilation, but only the company that installed it can change it. A new sensor, report or alarm means a quote, a wait and another invoice.

  1. Request
  2. Quote
  3. Wait
  4. Change order

Meters

The readings exist. The numbers don’t.

Finance needs energy per tenant, per floor, per month. The BMS tracks machines, not costs. So you pay for a monitoring centre and staff to watch the building, and still wait for the numbers.

You

Can we get energy per tenant for last month?

Vendor

Not from the BMS. We can send you an export tomorrow.

Pumps & water

A leak shows up on next month’s bill.

Water meters are read by hand, if at all. A leak in the pump room keeps running until a complaint or the next invoice gives it away.

Heating and cooling (HVAC)

A unit runs all night. Nobody notices.

Its schedule sits inside the BMS, and no one checks it after hours. An air-handling unit left running overnight shows up a month later, as a line on the energy bill.

Sensors

Data that never leaves the technical room.

What it adds up to

A smart building, run on spreadsheets.

Readings typed up by hand, bills reconciled line by line, problems found after the complaint. It holds until the spreadsheet’s owner is on holiday, a tariff changes, or a tenant disputes a charge.

Volts - Autonomous Buildings

The same building

Now run it on Volts.

Nothing gets ripped out. Volts connects to the systems and meters already in the building, fills any gaps with its own devices and puts AI agents to work on top. Every addition then extends the building’s automation, and its value.

Building management system (BMS)

Your BMS stays. Volts works on top.

Volts reads the BMS as it is and adds what it never had: every site in one place, access from anywhere, reports for whoever needs them. Changing settings from Volts comes later, and only where you allow it.

Volts One platform on top

Your BMS and meters Stay as they are

Meters

One reading. The invoice, the work order and the report.

The reading that measures a tenant’s use also bills them, flags problems and feeds the monthly report. When a tenant disputes a charge, you answer with the reading behind it.

One meter reading

Tenant invoice Billed from the reading, not an estimate.

Work order A problem in the readings goes straight to the team.

Cost report Every site’s costs, ready for finance.

Pumps & water

An agent spots the leak. Your team decides.

Water and gas join the same live view. An AI agent watches the readings around the clock, flags night-time flow that should not be there, explains what changed and drafts the work order. It acts only where you allow it, and every step is logged.

Agent - Losses Detector

Night-time flow on floor 2 is above its usual level. Work order drafted for maintenance.

Heating and cooling (HVAC)

Waste becomes a task, not a surprise.

Heating and cooling sit next to every other reading. A unit that runs all night is caught while it happens, with its cost, and a work order goes to the team.

Comfort and cost, on the same screen.

Air quality and visitor numbers sit next to energy for every site. The people who run the building and the people who pay for it finally look at the same numbers.

Solar & battery storage

Power made on the roof, saved for the peak.

Add rooftop solar and a battery, or connect the ones already there. Volts charges when power is cheap or the sun is out and discharges at the evening peak, planned against tomorrow’s prices. Every command stays inside the limits you set.

Reporting & compliance

The proof is ready before anyone asks.

Energy, water and CO₂ reports are built from the same live readings and sent on schedule, each figure traced back to its meter. When an auditor, an investor or the rules ask for proof, it is already there.

Monthly report · sent

  • Energy and cost by site
  • CO₂ by site and meter
  • ISO 50001 evidence
  • Every figure traced to its reading

To the owner, finance and the auditor

What it adds up to

The whole building, run as one system.

One platform runs automation, energy, solar and battery storage, property and compliance, on the equipment already there. The building runs itself within your limits, and proves it.

  • Owners A clear view of every asset
  • Facility teams Fewer surprises, faster fixes
  • Finance Numbers they can trust
  • Tenants Fair, transparent costs

And much more

Catch losses before they reach the bill.

Agents watch every site for leaks, waste and abnormal loads. Operations teams approve and close the work. Management gets answers backed by the same live data.

Always-on detection

Every exception arrives with evidence and a next step.

Volts agents show what changed, where it happened and what should happen next. Nothing runs outside the permissions and approvals your team sets.

  • Start proving value in weeks. Begin with one site’s data, then build the rollout case for the portfolio.
  • Keep the integration burden off your team. Volts surveys the site, maps and connects the systems, and fills the missing layer.
See What Volts Can Connect

One connected operating flow - from meter reading to financial outcome.

Your data stays in the EU.

Before the first building

The questions every stakeholder needs answered.

Will we have to replace our existing meters or BMS?

Usually not. Volts connects to existing meters, BMS and SCADA and retrofits only the data gaps. Replacement is considered only where existing equipment cannot provide reliable data or safe control.

How quickly can we prove value?

A first site can usually begin producing live data within weeks. The pilot then uses your own readings to establish the savings potential, billing impact and operational case for a wider rollout.

Can finance and tenants trust the numbers?

Every charge can be traced back to its reading, tariff, lease period or allocation rule. Finance gets a defensible calculation, while tenants see a clear breakdown of their own costs.

Who can see our data - and who can act on it?

Access is role-based: owners, operations, finance and tenants see only the buildings, workflows and information relevant to them. Sensitive actions remain permissioned, approved and logged.

Will AI ever act without our approval?

No. Volts agents detect issues, explain the evidence and propose the next step. They execute only within the permissions and approval rules your team sets, and every action is recorded in the audit log.

Don’t buy the promise. Prove it on one building.

In 30 minutes, a Volts engineer will map what you already have, where cost and administrative effort may be leaking out, and what a focused pilot should measure. Leave with a clear first-site scope - not a generic sales deck.

  • Know what can stay. See what connects to your existing meters, BMS and systems - and where retrofitting may be needed.
  • Define what success means. Select the financial and operational outcomes the pilot will measure.
  • Make the rollout decision with evidence. Get a clear first-building scope with no obligation to expand further.
