In their own words

KERO

KERO is energy management software for industrial and commercial sites. Meters, IoT sensors, and connected systems feed live readings for energy consumption, demand, and cost at equipment and site level. The platform can flag anomalies and waste, support demand forecasting and peak-demand management, and measure changes against a baseline. It describes automated demand response and load balancing, with options to schedule or override responses. Continuous sub-metering builds audit records, and KERO produces structured reports for Malaysia’s EECA 2024; the customer's Registered Energy Manager signs off. An open API connects to building-management systems and other data sources. KERO names equipment brands including Daikin, Carrier, Trane, ABB, Danfoss, Honeywell, Huawei, and Solis, and says it can read TNB utility data. Modules cover monitoring, solar, batteries, EV charging, water, ISO 50001, ESG, and carbon credits, with availability varying by sector. The service runs on cloud infrastructure, with edge computing for local responses where latency matters. Dashboards and reports are accessible on mobile devices. Pricing is on request; prospective customers can book a demo.
