Eastron MCS Solution: The Ultimate Data Center Energy Management Tool for Cutting Costs & Boosting Efficiency

Oct 09,2025The Pain Points Plaguing Global Energy Management
The traditional "one meter per device" model remains a major bottleneck for energy management efficiency worldwide. A data center operations manager in North America shared a typical scenario: monitoring 20 server racks would require 20 separate meters, occupying over 50% of the distribution cabinet space and driving up cabling costs significantly. Worse still, manual meter reading leads to delayed data, and by the time energy anomalies are detected, unnecessary waste has already occurred.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA) report Data Centers and Data Transmission Networks, global data center energy consumption is projected to reach 1,100 TWh by 2030—equivalent to the annual electricity demand of Japan and Germany combined. Against the backdrop of global carbon neutrality commitments, enterprises urgently need solutions that balance precise energy monitoring with cost control. This is where Eastron MCS solution steps in.
Eastron MCS Solution: One System, Full-Site Coverage
Eastron MCS Multi-Circuit Measurement Solution completely abandons the outdated "one meter per device" approach. As an integrated modular system, it combines 6 core modules to cover the entire workflow—from voltage/current monitoring to anomaly alerting—via flexible configuration.
Its distributed installation design is a game-changer: no redundant devices are needed, as one MCS system can monitor energy use across multiple pieces of equipment. This cuts overall costs by over 50% and reduces installation space by 80%. Critically, accessing the built-in WEB server allows users to:
View real-time data from all modules
Remotely configure module parameters
Perform data analysis and check Sequence of Events (SOE) records
This transforms energy management from "reactive troubleshooting" to "proactive control."
6 Modules: Flexible Combination for Complete Systems
It is important to note that while the 6 modules support customized combinations, two types are mandatory for system operation:
MCS-U (Voltage Measurement Module)
At least one current measurement module (MCS-I or MCS-E; mixed deployment is also supported based on on-site needs)
Other modules can be added based on functional requirements, and all work together to form a complete measurement system.

Update your energy management with Eastron MCS Solution
The global energy monitoring market is expanding rapidly—Grand View Research projects it will reach USD 34.5 billion by 2030 (up from USD 18.2 billion in 2023). Eastron’s MCS solution leverages a "modular + centralized" approach to help enterprises capture key benefits:
50% lower installation costs
100% higher operational efficiency
Data-driven energy savings opportunities
Whether for high-density rack monitoring in data centers (using only MCS-I), circuit breaker-mounted loop management in industrial sites (using only MCS-E), or complex scenarios with both racks and industrial equipment (mixed MCS-I/E deployment), MCS delivers precise, tailored performance.
