The client
About the company
Nu Boyana Film Studios is a world-renowned film centre at the foot of Vitosha. The complex covers 30 hectares and holds 13 large film studios, more than 120 offices and a great many sets.
The situation
The challenge
Before the rollout, reading a total of 173 electricity and water meters was difficult, inefficient and administratively expensive.
A further challenge was that the installation had to happen without disrupting filming, where any delay can have a serious financial effect.
The approach
The solution
Yettel rolled out Smart Monitoring, which allows remote monitoring and metering of electricity, gas, water, heat and pressure. It helps a business follow its consumption in real time, forecast costs more accurately and run more efficiently.
For Nu Boyana Film Studios, every electricity and water meter was fitted with a self-contained intelligent device providing precise monitoring, metering and billing by hour and by day. The data is transmitted automatically and visualised in real time in a dedicated software platform.
