Dialog Enterprise unveils fuel-monitoring system harnessing IoT

21 Sep 2022 - {{hitsCtrl.values.hits}}      

Dialog Enterprise, the corporate ICT solutions arm of Dialog Axiata PLC, recently unveiled a timely technological solution for monitoring and measuring fuel and energy consumption with precision. 
Developed in partnership with the University of Moratuwa Research Laboratory and rigorously tested and used on Dialog’s own base stations, the solution was released ahead of schedule to help organisations efficiently manage their fuel usage and consumption. 


Based on the internet of things (IoT) technology, this solution uses multiple sensor types to record and showcase information in systems in real time, 24/7 and alerts the users via SMS, email or the web when critical thresholds are reached. The solution also offers users a wide range of options to trigger alerts based on their security clearance and allows them to view the status of all their currently operational vehicles on one dashboard. 


This futuristic fuel and energy consumption monitoring solution has been developed in line with the environmental, social and governance (ESG) compliance and has greatly helped Dialog engineers to overcome their day-to-day struggles in maintaining uninterrupted power and connectivity during times of fuel shortage. 


The proven results of this solution and its relevance to a large cross section of the economy means that it can be quickly and easily adapted to meet the specific needs of other industries, especially in terms of monitoring and managing large-capacity generators and fuel depots. Its immediate deployment at fuel stations, factories, hotels and other relevant industries around the country is expected to contribute for a substantial savings while acting as an anti-pilfering tool.
