GridVis® Power Grid Monitoring Software from Janitza is designed to help datacentres transform fragmented energy data into unified, actionable intelligence. It enables users to optimise energy management, ensure compliance with ISO 50001, and proactively monitor power quality through a scalable, helping organisations reduce costs, improve efficiency, and simplify regulatory reporting.
The Integration Problem
Datacentre operators typically face measurement data scattered across multiple systems: building management platforms tracking HVAC loads, DCIM tools monitoring IT equipment, and standalone power quality analysers protecting critical circuits. Each system operates in isolation, using proprietary protocols and data formats. This fragmentation prevents holistic analysis, obscures efficiency opportunities, and complicates compliance reporting for standards including ISO 50001.
Unified Data Architecture
GridVis consolidates measurement data from Janitza devices and third-party equipment through native OPC UA client functionality and Modbus TCP/RTU integration, for example to measure gas and water consumption. The software’s four-tier edition structure – Essentials, Standard, Expert and Cloud – allows organisations to deploy capabilities matched to operational requirements rather than purchasing unused functionality, and ensures compliance and visibility across diverse datacentre estates.
For example, the Expert edition supports key performance indicator (KPI) tracking, Sankey flow diagrams for visualising energy distribution, and customisable report generation that eliminates manual data compilation. Alarm management with escalation levels enables proactive response to power quality events before they impact operations, and software-based recording captures data from devices lacking onboard storage, extending monitoring coverage without hardware upgrades.
For multi-site operations, the Cloud edition provides centralised monitoring accessible via standard browsers without VPN requirements. Pre-configured dashboards display energy costs, consumption patterns and CO₂ emissions across electricity, gas and water utilities.
Standards Compliance & Flexibility
GridVis supports compliance with key UK and Ireland standards including ISO 50001, offering automated data collection, baseline tracking, and audit-ready reports for streamlined energy management and regulatory reporting. With flexible REST API and CSV support, it enables easy integration with enterprise and legacy systems commonly used in the British and Irish markets.
Its scalable licensing means organisations can manage single sites or expand to multi-site operations in line with Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) obligations in the UK or Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland (SEAI) audits in Ireland.
