What meter types are available and which dashboard tab shows them?

The platform supports 8 energy carrier types. Each type appears on a specific dashboard tab:

Energy Dashboard tab (shows all energy carriers except water and waste):

  • Electricity (cyan #06b6d4, unit: kWh) — electrical consumption
  • Heating (amber #f59e0b, unit: kWh) — thermal/heat energy (district heating, heat pumps, etc.)
  • Cooling (blue #60a5fa, unit: kWh) — cooling energy (chillers, district cooling)
  • Gas (red #f87171, unit: kWh) — gas consumption (natural gas, biogas, LPG)
  • Ventilation (emerald #34d399, unit: m³/h) — airflow rates
  • CO₂ (orange #fb923c, unit: ppm) — carbon dioxide levels

Water Dashboard tab

  • Water (blue #3b82f6, unit: m³) — water consumption (potable, hot, cold, irrigation)

Waste Dashboard tab

  • Waste (violet #a78bfa, unit: kg) — waste management data

Important: The meter type you select when creating a meter determines which tab it appears on. If your heating meter doesn't show on the Energy tab, verify that the meter type is set to "heating" and not accidentally set to something else.

The Gas tab is a dedicated sub-view of gas meters specifically. The Energy tab shows a combined overview including gas alongside electricity, heating, and cooling.
