Data Asset

The definitive learning dataset for smart infrastructure

NoWatt's dataset was assembled through two decades of capturing continuous electrical consumption across diverse sectors and appliances. The commercial value now sits in the resolution, estate/appliance diversity, and 20 years coverage: it provides the perfect foundation to train self-monitoring equipment.

Why it matters

Lab data explains expected behavior. 20 years of high-resolution electrical consumption exposes what products actually encounter in the wild.

Unrivaled diversity

Captured across every imaginable environment: hospitality, education, manufacturing, logistics, and retail. This diversity exposes algorithms to the full spectrum of real-world usage.

High resolution

Continuous, high-frequency electrical consumption data that captures the exact energy signatures of degradation, drift, and abuse.

20 years of history

You cannot simulate 20 years of slow equipment failure in a lab. The dataset contains two decades of true lifecycle degradation and intervention patterns.

Scale and provenance

The value comes from breadth, duration, and operating realism

This is not a synthetic benchmark. The data was built through live deployment, across many organizations and operating conditions, over a long enough period to make long term behavior meaningful.

Unrivaled diversity and resolution: No lab can generate this benchmark. Twenty years of continuous electrical consumption from real buildings and infrastructure creates the ultimate learning dataset.
The data captures true machine and human behavior through high-resolution energy signatures — exposing slow degradation, settings drift, misuse, and intervention patterns from varied operating environments.
This makes the asset uniquely capable of training smart, self-monitoring equipment to recognize its own faults, classifying whether a problem lies in the asset, the installation, or the way it's being used.

What it contains

More than operating readings: context, behavior, and consequences

Manufacturers often have partial visibility into fleet behavior. This dataset adds the context that changes interpretation: environmental variation, settings drift, human intervention, abnormal operation, and the different ways products are actually stressed after deployment.

From live operating behavior to benchmark intelligence
How does this product actually behave after deployment across different operating environments?
Which anomalies are likely to be product faults, and which are more likely to come from installation or usage?
What patterns increase cost of ownership, service friction, or unnecessary intervention?
Where could better intelligence improve product design, alerting, or self-diagnosis?

How it was built

The deployment history is the provenance story, not the current offer

NoWatt spent years instrumenting and interpreting live operating environments. That matters because it explains why the dataset exists and why it is difficult to reproduce. The current commercial opportunity is not generic monitoring deployment. It is what the accumulated operating history can now do for manufacturers.

01

Capture live operating behavior

High-resolution operating data is captured in real-time, so performance can be understood in the context of load, weather, seasonality, and human behavior.

02

Compare against the benchmark

Live data is compared against twenty years of real-world operating behavior across sectors, sites, and hundreds of thousands of devices.

03

Classify the real cause

The benchmark shows whether the issue sits in the equipment, the installation, or the way it is being used, so teams know what to fix first.

Real world diversity

Every sector adds useful variation to the benchmark

Manufacturers benefit because different operating environments generate different stress patterns, usage signatures, and failure modes. The more diverse the data, the more useful the comparative context becomes.

Hospitality sector illustration

Multi-site estates

Hospitality

High appliance density, 24/7 operation, and consistent fault patterns make this one of the richest sectors in the dataset.

Manufacturing sector illustration

Process equipment

Manufacturing

Process loads, duty cycles, and wear patterns across plant and production equipment build a strong benchmark for anomaly detection.

Education sector illustration

Large building portfolios

Education

Seasonal occupancy patterns and diverse building types add unusual variability that sharpens the analysis model.

Logistics sector illustration

Continuity-critical assets

Logistics

Refrigeration, heating, and building services in supply-chain environments where unplanned downtime has direct commercial cost.

The next question is not whether the benchmark exists. It is how that operating history could improve diagnostics, service, and product performance in your category.
