WATTICS LIMITED

Their core work

Wattics is an Irish technology SME specializing in energy data analytics and monitoring software, particularly for buildings and building districts. Their core capability lies in disaggregating energy consumption data — breaking down total energy use into individual appliance or system-level insights — and transforming raw energy data into actionable intelligence. They also bring experience in IT security for SME digital ecosystems, suggesting their software platform intersects with both energy management and secure data handling.

What they specialise in

How they've shifted over time

With only three projects spanning 2016–2020, Wattics shows a compact but readable trajectory. Their initial projects (ChArGED and ExcEED, both starting 2016) focused squarely on building energy analytics and disaggregation. By 2017, they expanded into cybersecurity with FORTIKA, suggesting a broadening from pure energy analytics toward securing the digital infrastructure that energy monitoring platforms depend on.

Wattics appears to be evolving from a pure energy analytics provider toward securing the IoT and data platforms that underpin smart building systems — a natural expansion as energy monitoring becomes more connected and data-sensitive.

How they like to work

Wattics operates exclusively as a participant, never leading consortia — consistent with a technology SME contributing a specific software product or service within larger collaborative efforts. With 28 unique partners across 9 countries from just 3 projects, they integrate well into mid-to-large European consortia. Their role pattern suggests they are a reliable technology contributor rather than a project architect.

Despite only three projects, Wattics has built a network spanning 28 partners across 9 countries, indicating participation in well-connected European consortia with broad geographic diversity.

What sets them apart

Wattics occupies a specific niche at the intersection of energy data disaggregation and smart building analytics — they don't just collect data, they break it down into granular, actionable components. Their added experience in cybersecurity for SME IT ecosystems is uncommon among energy analytics companies and positions them well for projects where secure handling of building energy data matters. For consortium builders, they offer a ready-made energy analytics platform with awareness of data security requirements.

Highlights from their portfolio

• ChArGED
  Largest single funding (EUR 374,812) and an innovative approach combining gamification with energy disaggregation to change user behavior around energy consumption.
• FORTIKA
  Represents a strategic pivot into cybersecurity, showing Wattics can contribute beyond pure energy analytics into the security layer of connected SME systems.
