Acrel Empowers LIPPO MALLS Indonesia with Next-Generation Online Energy Monitoring Solution

LIPPO MALLS stands as one of Indonesia's foremost retail property powerhouses, operating an extensive portfolio of shopping centers across the archipelago. This ambitious three-year modernization initiative encompasses 80 existing malls, where the client aims to deploy tens of thousands of intelligent metering devices. The comprehensive retrofit program, valued at over USD 1.5 million, represents a strategic shift from legacy systems to digital energy management, positioning LIPPO MALLS as a sustainability leader in Southeast Asia's retail sector while addressing critical operational inefficiencies in their rapidly expanding network.

    Customer Pain Points

    Manual Meter Reading Inefficiency: The facilities relied on outdated analog meters necessitating physical site visits by a 100-plus-member electrical maintenance team, driving up labor costs and introducing data inaccuracies.
    Fragmented Tenant Billing Process: Without a centralized system, generating precise electricity invoices for hundreds of individual tenants became a cumbersome, error-prone task, creating revenue leakage and customer disputes.
    Regulatory Compliance Mandate: Given the project's nationwide scale, all metering equipment had to secure Tera certification from Indonesia's Ministry of Energy, a non-negotiable requirement for utility-grade deployments.
    Complex Multi-Tariff Structure: Indonesia's fluctuating time-of-use electricity pricing demanded sophisticated multi-rate metering capabilities that legacy devices simply could not support.
    Critical Fire Safety Risks: Deteriorating switchgear infrastructure in aging distribution rooms had triggered multiple fire incidents, threatening business continuity and shopper safety.


    Acrel Solution

    Centralized IoT EMS Platform: We deployed a cloud-native Energy Management System enabling real-time energy visualization, predictive maintenance analytics, and unified operational control across all 80 mall locations through a single dashboard.

    Certified Smart Metering Suite: Our ADL200 and ADL400 energy meters deliver Class B accuracy with advanced multi-tariff functionality. The MID-certified design streamlines conversion to Indonesian Tera approval, ensuring rapid regulatory compliance at scale.

    Wireless Thermal Monitoring Network: The ATE400 self-powered, battery-free temperature sensors continuously monitor busbar hotspots in distribution rooms. These maintenance-free devices transmit instant thermal alerts to the EMS platform, enabling proactive fire prevention without requiring additional electrical wiring.



    Project Outcomes & Benefits

    • Operational Excellence: The unified IoT EMS platform enabled remote monitoring of all malls, slashing the electrical workforce by 80% from 100+ staff to approximately 20 specialists—generating direct annual payroll savings of USD 100,000 while improving response times.
    • Revenue Integrity: Automated sub-metering with tenant naming conventions eliminated manual billing errors, reducing undercharging and overcharging risks by over 95% and accelerating invoice generation from weeks to hours.
    • Sustainability Enablement: Granular energy data now supports corporate ESG reporting and aligns with Indonesia's national carbon neutrality roadmap, providing audit-ready consumption analytics for government energy efficiency incentives and future carbon credit initiatives.
