Carlo Gavazzi: EMS – The New All-In-One Solution for Advanced Energy Management
January 8, 2026
EMS: A Multi-Meter, Edge Gateway, Data Logger & Web Server in One Scalable Platform
Carlo Gavazzi Automation has announced the launch of EMS – Energy Management System, its latest integrated solution for comprehensive energy monitoring and control.
Designed in a compact 5-DIN module format, EMS combines measurement, data logging, communication, and analysis into one powerful device. It ensures accurate acquisition of energy and electrical variables, secure data storage, and seamless data exchange with local and remote systems, including Building Management Systems (BMS), industrial ERP/MES platforms, and cloud-based energy services.
Thanks to its All-in-One architecture, EMS offers exceptional versatility: it can serve as a fast, reliable IIoT energy meter or operate as a complete energy management system. The built-in web user interface enables multiple users to access dashboards, generate reports, and analyse data in real time—from any device.
In its compact housing, the EMS integrates a scalable 3-phase energy and power meter, an IIoT gateway, a BACnet server, a Modbus gateway, a web app for data analysis, and—last but not least—a powerful control board running a secure Linux operating system, which ensures flexibility and future expandability.
