NIXON Hire has announced the launch of Pulse, an online portal that offers customers insight into energy use, carbon impact, and cost performance linked to off-grid renewable energy equipment on hire.
The digital customer interface is the result of an 18-month, seven-figure investment in data infrastructure.
Built for operational and sustainability teams, Pulse provides portfolio-wide visibility with the ability to drill down to individual sites and assets. It draws on data from Nixon Hire’s connected renewable energy fleet and converts it into ‘clear, consistent’ dashboards and detailed asset outputs in just a few clicks.
Pulse is designed to help customers understand what is driving site performance, and how changes on the ground affect outcomes. By making it easy to compare sites and see the contribution of different assets over time, it supports more informed decisions on how equipment is deployed and operated.
Nixon Hire revealed that, ahead of launch, Pulse was tested across 28 customer sites, where early users highlighted time saved, improved consistency in reporting, and better visibility of up-to-date performance to support day-to-day operational decisions.
Through Pulse, customers can view equipment and renewable energy assets on hire by site; access live diagnostic insights and identify energy generation issues; track financial savings, fuel savings and carbon reductions; compare site efficiency and performance across multiple locations and time periods; access asset-level renewable power performance data; export site-level and portfolio-wide reports in PDF, or data in Excel; and view Nixon Hire’s wider ESG performance data.
Pulse is initially focused on renewable energy monitoring and reporting, with planned updates set to extend into broader operational and financial aspects of the customer experience.
Brian Cornett, CEO of Nixon Hire, said, “Pulse is one of the most important undertakings we’ve delivered as a business. It brings together a huge amount of work to connect equipment, centralise data and strengthen the systems that sit behind the customer experience, so customers can actually see real data as evidence and act on it across sites.
“We have invested heavily and worked closely with customers throughout, because the aim was never to create just another dashboard. Pulse was developed to remove the friction customers have told us they face in gathering and reporting performance data, giving customer operational and sustainability teams a shared, trusted view of performance and making reporting quicker and easier.”
