SUMS Group (formerly Watersave Australia) has been working with schools for over 9 years. We aim to inspire, motivate and educate schools to reduce wastage, save costs and at the same time improve educational outcomes for students by increasing awareness of water and energy use within the school and wider community.

The Smart Utility Management Solution ™ (SUMS) is used in over 450 NSW schools and TAFE Colleges providing the data to help identify and rectify problems, track performance and quantify savings.

As Schools are generally closed for 3 months of the year and even during term-time schools are closed most weekends. This translates to facilities that are occupied only 200 days a year. So why pay for water leakage and excess energy consumption outside of term time?

This highlights how important it is to focus on water and energy consumption during times when a school is unoccupied. Understanding a school’s base consumption will provide the incentives for improvement while also illustrating savings opportunities.

The Smart Utility Management Solution™ (SUMS) delivers interval data across water, electricity and gas utilities, providing schools with the ability to accurately monitor and manage consumption and costs.
