Process for creating a Climkit Site

Jean-Nicolas Turlier Updated by Jean-Nicolas Turlier

Request a quote

Once the needs have been defined, make a request for a quote to info@climkit.io.

In order to avoid additional costs later on, it is important to identify all the necessary elements in advance according to the needs of the site and the owner, in particular:

  • the management solutions to be implemented,
  • the number and type of electricity meters,
  • the planned internet connection method.

In case of doubt about the configuration to be adopted or compatibility with an existing site, a preliminary exchange with Climkit allows for the validation of the planned connection scheme for the site and avoids subsequent adjustments.

Structure of the Climkit offer

The quote for a new Climkit site is divided by category and type of product:

Categories
  • Gateway and connectivity
  • Electricity management
  • Optimization and energy storage management
  • Electric vehicle charging station management
  • Thermal and water energy management
  • Collective laundry manager
  • eBike charging management
Types of products
  • Technical hardware: devices to be installed on site, such as the Climkit Gateway, meters, or charging stations.
  • Software features: functions activated on the Gateway and billed only according to the ordered solutions.
  • Supply and commissioning: services related to equipment preparation, technical coordination during installation, and commissioning.

It is recommended to consult the principle diagrams for each planned solution to define the exact needs before validating the quote.

Place an order

It is possible to place an order directly from the platform after creating a new site. Even in this case, a confirmation request is sent to the applicant before the equipment is shipped.

  1. Check the quote to ensure it matches the defined needs.
  2. Have the planned connection scheme for the site validated by Climkit, if necessary.
  3. Validate the quote and specify the delivery address if it is different from the billing address.

The material is then delivered within 5 working days.

Add equipment to the platform

Upon receipt of the material, it is recommended to create the site on the platform and add the equipment to it.

This preparation will facilitate commissioning by allowing direct verification of communication between the equipment and the platform after their installation on the site.

Install equipment on the site

  1. Install the equipment in accordance with what was planned during planning, following Climkit instructions and manufacturer prescriptions.
  2. Verify on the platform that the equipment is communicating.
  3. Inform Climkit that the installation is complete to validate the technical setup validation.
  4. Provide the site owner's contact details to Climkit for the administrative setup.

Installer responsibilities

The installer or the person installing the equipment is responsible for the following:

  • Planning the installation based on the owner's specific needs, providing for all necessary products and equipment
  • Setting up a functional internet connection or installing a Climkit 4G Router with mandatory verification of the 4G signal quality if applicable
  • Creating the site and adding the equipment to the platform
  • Installing and configuring equipment in accordance with manufacturer prescriptions and Climkit instructions.
  • Commissioning of the equipment in accordance with Climkit prescriptions
  • Signage and assignment of meters and other equipment on the platform to avoid any errors when preparing expense statements and billing
  • Verifying the communication of meters and equipment with the platform
  • Announcing the commissioning to Climkit to allow for verification and validation
  • Providing Climkit with the owner's complete contact details for administrative setup and drafting of the management contract

Climkit Support

Climkit is available throughout the project to answer technical questions, validate certain choices, or support commissioning if necessary. This progressive coordination secures the progress of the installation and limits adjustments at the end of the project.

Once the installation is complete and validated, Climkit handles the administrative setup with the owner, and then the site enters the operational phase.

Climkit is at your disposal for any questions or assistance from planning to project commissioning, by email at service@climkit.io or by phone during office hours at 021 588 15 19.
