ABB Nsight vs Verdigris

ABB Nsight is a cloud-based analytics platform for industrial operators seeking visibility into site energy use and carbon performance. It centralizes water, air, gas, electricity, and steam data in one dashboard and includes utility bill and tariff analysis. The platform supports greenhouse gas baselining, reporting, and real-time monitoring for Scopes 1 and 2. Its listed levels cover reporting and tariff analysis, real-time meter and significant energy user monitoring, and optimization tools such as grid prediction, demand response optimization, and automated load curtailment. ABB says Nsight connects with ERP, BMS, SCADA, AMI, and IoT systems using open APIs and flexible protocols. It is designed to use existing meters, sensors, and systems without requiring new hardware in most cases. ABB describes encryption at rest and in transit, outbound-only data flow, and two-factor authentication, and states compliance with SOC 2 Type II, ISO/IEC 27001, and NIST standards. All three subscription levels include onboarding, training, and 24/7 support. The platform is available on web and via API; pricing is on request.

Verdigris is a cloud-first platform for electrical intelligence and real-time energy monitoring in data centers, commercial buildings, and industrial facilities. Its Smart Current Transformers track energy at building, equipment, or phase level, with analysis at the edge. Cloud software presents energy use, demand peaks, forecasts, power quality, and end-use information, including watts, voltage, current, and power factor. The company says granular readings can help data centers identify stranded capacity and manage AI workload growth. Adaptive Automation uses energy, weather, and building signals to forecast usage and adjust HVAC operation for efficiency and peak demand management. Building management systems can connect through BACnet/IP and Modbus/TCP. The API provides property and asset details with time-series measurements; users can export app data as CSV. A mobile app supports installation tasks, and the cloud service is accessible through a web browser without software installation. Verdigris says customer energy data is available only to authorized customer accounts and is not shared without consent. It announced completion of a SOC 2 Type II compliance audit in 2024. Pricing is on request; product pages invite prospective customers to request a demo.
