The total costs of collective heating
In your home you use an energy installation for all residents in the building where you live. The energy company charges your landlord or manager for the energy supplied for the entire building.
The total costs of the supplied energy must be paid by all residents. That is why we measure the personal consumption of all residents and calculate exactly which costs are involved. In this way, we make a personal statement for each resident in the building. We do this on behalf of your manager, homeowners' association or housing corporation.
Solutions for more energy savings
Metering individual use is carefully calculated, as only then can the heat and/or water costs of a complex be fairly allocated. Insight into your use will also lead to greater awareness and a change in attitude towards heating. ista takes care of consumption-indicative billing for you, and can offer a clear insight of use on a weekly basis, enabling you to be even more aware of your energy and water consumption. This leads to even more energy savings and for this reason energy consumption metering has been made mandatory in Europe. Good for the environment as well as your wallet!

The Heat law
You have probably heard of it: the Heat law. The law was enacted in 2014; this is a complex piece of legislation addressing the manifold interests of the various parties. Simply put: since 2014 it is legally required to meter energy consumption at the individual household level in complexes with a common energy supply. Whereas previously all costs were simply divided equally among all residents, now the actual costs incurred per dwelling are passed on.
This is a much fairer approach, as why should an energy-efficient resident be required to support a resident in the same complex who runs the heating 24/7 at 24 degrees Celsius? Now you pay for what you use, however the costs for the common energy use are borne by all residents.
