Joule is a collection of scripts and a HTML Web App to record and visualise the energy use of a collection of sensors, currently the sensors within the William Gates Building at The University of Cambridge. It provides a tool to explore a tree of sensors, drill down to interesting areas based on geography or energy use such as lighting or server power, and plot charts over a range of time periods, helping to identify both short and long term patterns.

Data Collection
To capture electricity use within the computer lab, we have installed high accuracy electricty monitors on main circuits within the building, and use USB Current clamps to monitor additional sub circuits. This information is logged and stored, for use with the web application.
