nanoGrid and Scaler: From meter to ESG report, Without the spreadsheet chaos

For real estate portfolios dealing with rising ESG expectations, the gap between accurate utility data and sustainability reporting has always been frustrating.

Data lives in one silo. Reports live in another one. And in between? Manual exports, version conflicts, and the constant question: can we actually trust these numbers?

There's a better way now.

nanoGrid now integrates directly with Scaler, connecting live meter data straight to your ESG reporting platform. No file transfers. No data cleaning.

Why this matters

ESG and CSRD frameworks aren't getting any easier. They demand data that's not just accurate, but traceable. Investors and regulators want to see where every number comes from and whether it holds up under audit.

That’s hard to prove when your sustainability metrics are based on estimates, invoices and spreadsheets.

With nanoGrid feeding real-time utility data directly into Scaler, you get ESG metrics built on measured data, not assumptions. Electricity, gas, water, district heating captured at the source and delivered to your reporting layer in a format that's ready for compliance and use.

What this integration delivers

• ‍Audit-ready, traceable data quality: Meter-level data feeds your ESG platform with full traceability. Every value links back to the source meter and exact timestamp.‍
• One dataset for everyone: When teams rely on different datasets, decisions slow down. This integration creates a single, consistent baseline so portfolio performance discussions start from the same foundation.‍
• Faster reporting cycles: Without manual data gathering, you respond quicker to investor requests, regulatory deadlines, and internal reviews. The time you used to spend chasing files now goes into savings and action.‍
• Comparable performance across borders: For multi-site portfolios, having one consistent data backbone means you can benchmark assets fairly.

A shared belief

nanoGrid and Scaler built this integration around a straightforward principle:
if the data isn't right, the decisions won't be either.

This connection puts reliable data in place first, giving ESG and value decisions a solid data backbone.
