Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2009114906A1] There is provided a cooperative resource management system and method for optimising resource consumption over a range of applications. A resource control system (100) for a subscriber site (111) is provided the system (100) includes a main control unit (102) which is coupled to the metering equipment of various resource suppliers associated with the particular subscriber site (111) e.g. electricity meter (110), gas meter (109) and water meter (108). The control unit (102) monitors the amount of actual resource usage at the subscriber site (111) at any particular instance. The actual resource usage of the entire site is then compared by the control unit (102), to the desired usage targets set by the user via the user interface (101). Base on this comparison the system is able to predict when the targets maybe exceed and alter resource allocation to various sectors within the subscriber site (111).
