Why Elyx?

With Elyx, you can achieve maximum efficiency in energy management by using the data to run analyses, make forecasts and budgets, draw up ESG ratings, participate in calls for tenders…
We guide you in the digital transformation of energy management: make the most of the energy resources of your plants and maximize your company's productivity and competitiveness.

Main Advantages

Automate

Elyx automates the management of energy bills: importing, checking, reporting and accounting.
Find supplier billing errors
Elyx automatically validates the correctness of all billing components in line with your contract and country's regulation with always up-to-date data and a history from 2014 to check previous invoices. If you have imported self-reading data, it can compare them with consumptions reported by the supplier.
No restrictions on supplier selection
Elyx reads and collects all energy bill data directly from any supplier's PDF. If you have given up on changing suppliers because the current one provides you with data via Excel, with Elyx you will no longer need it.
Import invoices automatically
Elyx can retrieve invoices in PDF, xls, xml or csv format directly from your supplier's website or you can forward supplier emails with PDF attachments directly to a platform address: in this way everything will be completely automated.

Optimize

Elyx helps you speed up all energy management processes and operations.
Optimize cash flows
Elyx automatically simulates the energy expenditure for each meter and for each billing component, giving you highly accurate forecast budgets.
Simplify sustainability reporting and ESG rating
Elyx collects all energy consumption data in one place, providing quick analysis and comparisons against standard and customized KPIs.
Optimize the time spent managing billing anomalies
Elyx notifies you of every anomalous situation detected while checking invoices (billing gaps, consumptions/costs out of tolerance, penalty charges…), so you can take immediate action.

Integrate

Elyx can be integrated with other applications that already used by your company, without making you change anything.
Export to the accounting application
Elyx exports all the information needed for the accounting of an invoice. It can directly apply the digital stamps required for the accounting record of the tax document on the PDFs of the invoices and automatically handle the accounting allocations of costs related to previous fiscal years.
Integrate other applications with Rest API
Elyx automatically syncs with your property management software keeping the real estate registration data always current.
Import data from EMS/BMS systems
Elyx automatically imports the data related to the energy consumption monitored on the field and links them to their respective meter, allowing more in-depth and accurate analysis.

    Features

    Digitization of invoices directly from the supplier's PDF

    It allows you to automatically retrieve and import energy invoice data directly from the supplier’s PDF (including scanning). Invoices belonging to different energy carriers can be managed (methane gas, electricity, diesel, LPG, district heating and cooling) and is able to collect the following information:

    • Meter registry
    • Readings and consumption
    • Details of utility billing

    Automatic check of the correctness of invoices

    It allows you to automatically check the correctness of an energy bill extracted during the digitization phase. A traffic light will indicate the outcome of the control activities to highlight errors and anomalies relating to different aspects:

    • Consistency with the supply contract
    • Regulatory legislation (eg. ARERA for Italy)
    • Comparison with the distributor’s consumption

    Monthly analysis and breakdown of costs and consumption

    The data relating to costs and consumption are broken down monthly, for each delivery point and with a simple click you can find out how much has been spent or consumed for each individual property. The information obtained can be compared and analyzed on different levels (delivery point, building, cluster, customer). In particular:

    • Comparison between available power and maximum used in the month.
    • Reactive energy analysis and related penalties.
    • Comparison of the raw material price with market indices.
    • Comparison of billed consumption with other sources such as self-readings, data from the field, budget.

    KPI: personalized energy performance indexes

    It allows you to define energy performance indices, customized according to the sector to which it belongs, to evaluate the behavior of each property in relation to the others. It helps the user, especially in multi-site situations, to highlight situations of abnormal consumption. In fact, various buildings can be compared on the basis of a single KPI or two KPIs can be compared to each other to perform even more in-depth assessments.

    Generation of reports and configuration of specific alerts

    It allows you to generate personalized aggregate reports or for a specific delivery point and you can take advantage of an interactive dashboard to analyze all the data of each individual carrier in a visual and intuitive way.
    Thanks to configurable alerts it is possible to monitor situations such as:

    • Abnormal costs and consumption
    • Compare with self-readings
    • Identification of penalties and power peaks

    Precise and automatic energy expenditure forecast

    Thanks to the Elyx calculation engine, it is possible to generate energy expenditure simulations to cover various forecast scenarios, even in the long term, and to compare the data actually billed with the simulated ones. In particular:

    • Calculation of the energy budget for the following year and any revisions.
    • Generation of monthly allocations for the current month.
    • Evaluation of energy expenditure according to the energy class, power change or evaluation of different supply contracts.

    Rest API to interconnect business applications

    Access all the information processed by ELYX from other external applications.

    • Accounting: Exports to the accounting application all the information necessary for the accounting of an invoice. You have the option of affixing digital stamps directly on the PDF of the invoices containing all the information necessary for the accounting registration of the tax document and automatically manage the accounting provisions of costs relating to previous tax years.
    • Field monitoring: Automatically imports field monitored energy consumption data (EMS, BMS, …)
    • Assets: Automatically align the data relating to the property master data directly from the Assets application.

    Mobile App to optimize your time

    You can say goodbye to the various reports, messages and excel files of maintainers, the Elyx mobile application eliminates all those manual activities and allows you to directly receive the self-reading data within the platform.

    Minimize human error due to the manual entry of the self-reading data, the Elyx application performs a pre-check of the data entered, before sending it to the platform, and allows you to digitize the entire data collection process self-reading values of your fleet of meters.

    You can use the consumption reconstructed from the self-readings for comparisons with the invoiced one and use the data for precise and punctual monthly allocations.
