Sanyo offers STAIMS and ERMOS to regulate and monitor energy consumption

In view of the new Rationalization in Energy Use law to be implemented in Japan from April 1, 2010, Sanyo is offering two new products called STAIMS and ERMOS. STAIMS offers air conditioning and lighting regulation of a building. It figures out the number of people in a 20 sq. m. area and adjusts the lighting and air conditioning accordingly. The STAIMS system, which is to be implemented in about 100 organizations, will cost around $60,000 to be implemented in a building of gross area 12000 sq. m. The ERMOS offers a facility to record power consumption patterns. The data relating to amount of power consumed is stored in a central server located at Sanyo’s business place in Gunma Prefecture, and can be checked remotely by any client subscribing to the service.

To promote the use of these Energy Management Systems (EMS), Sanyo plans to offer fare paying consulting services to clients purchasing them.
