Insight Systems has partnered with measurable.energy to help customers identify and eliminate wasted energy from everyday workplace appliances.
We already help organisations reduce the environmental impact of printing through sustainable print management and energy-efficient, heat-free business inkjet technology.
This partnership extends that focus beyond print, giving customers greater visibility and control over the energy used by printers, monitors, fridges, heaters and other plugged-in equipment.
Plugged-in appliances can account for up to 40% of a building’s electricity use, with nearly half of that energy potentially wasted. Yet many organisations still have little visibility into consumption at device level.
Insight Systems customers will now have access to measurable.energy’s smart sockets and AI-driven plug load management platform.
The technology shows how much energy individual appliances are using and automatically switches equipment off when it is not needed, without relying on manual intervention or behavioural change.
Measurable.energy typically reduces plug load energy by 30–67%, with payback achieved within 3–12 months.
For organisations managing large workplaces or complex estates, this creates a practical way to move beyond high-level building data and tackle waste at its source.
Printers left on overnight, monitors drawing power after hours and appliances running in underused spaces may appear insignificant individually. Across an estate, their impact quickly adds up.
David McCulloch, Managing Director and Co-Founder at Insight Systems, said:
“Helping customers reduce their environmental impact has always been central to the way we work. We have already helped organisations cut energy use and carbon emissions through more sustainable print technology, but printers are only one part of the workplace energy footprint.
“By combining our workplace technology expertise with measurable.energy’s appliance-level monitoring and automated control, we can help customers reduce hidden waste, lower costs and make measurable progress towards their sustainability goals.”
Dan Williams, CEO at measurable.energy, said:
“Plug load is one of the most overlooked areas of building energy waste, but it also offers an immediate opportunity for savings.
“Insight Systems already works with organisations committed to improving efficiency. Together, we can help those customers see exactly where energy is being wasted and automatically eliminate it without disrupting their operations.”
The partnership combines Insight Systems’ sustainable print expertise, workplace technology knowledge and trusted customer relationships with measurable.energy’s appliance-level insight and automated control.
Together, we help customers:
- See how much energy individual appliances are using
- Identify and eliminate hidden plug load waste
- Automatically switch off equipment when it is not needed
- Reduce plug load energy by 30–67%
- Lower costs and carbon emissions across buildings and estates
- Support sustainability reporting with accurate appliance-level data
- Extend energy efficiency initiatives beyond print
For Insight Systems customers, the partnership provides a straightforward way to build on their existing sustainability progress.
Print is an important part of workplace energy use, but it is only part of the picture. By working with measurable.energy, Insight Systems can now help customers tackle the waste beyond it.
