EnergyElephant review
Broad energy, carbon and utility-data management with transparent metered pricing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
EnergyElephant is a cloud-based energy and sustainability management platform for organizations tracking energy, water, waste and carbon across buildings, vehicles and other assets. It is designed for energy, finance, sustainability and facilities teams, with relevant use cases for universities, public-sector organizations, real-estate portfolios and multinational operations. The platform combines portfolio energy monitoring with carbon accounting, utility-bill processing, forecasting, sustainability tracking and mobile meter reading.
Pricing is metered and billed monthly. The Small plan costs $26 per meter per month and includes energy and carbon essentials, onboarding and switching support, detailed meter point analysis, buildings, vehicles and assets, and smart meter data. Medium costs $15.80 per meter per month and adds Scope 3 data. Large costs $7.30 per meter per month with the same listed feature set as Medium. A 14-day trial is available, while the product does not have a permanent free plan. This structure makes the published starting price easy to understand for larger metered deployments, while smaller teams should compare the tier costs against their meter count.
The product’s main strength is breadth: it can collect data from smart meters, IoT sensors, supplier portals, business intelligence systems, existing data-collection systems and APIs. It also supports energy budgets, benchmarks, baselines, projections, tariff and spend forecasting, anomaly detection, sustainability targets, project tracking and opportunity registers. Web, iOS, Android and API access support different operating contexts. EnergyElephant suits organizations that need one system for operational energy data and sustainability reporting; teams seeking only basic consumption charts may find its wider feature set unnecessary.
