About Niall Brady
Niall Brady, principal consultant with Novocertus Limited, has worked as an Electrical Engineer for nearly 35 years, and has held a variety of lead engineer and management roles in both the multinational and hi-tech manufacturing startup sectors.
For the last 15 years, he has focused on developing sustainable solutions in energy and water, and on helping businesses to get a better understanding of their usage of these resources.
He was the driving force behind the build-out of Ireland’s first Living Lab Smart Building, part of the IBM Research Labs (Dublin) campus, in 2011.
For the first time, this highly instrumented building allowed for the integration, testing and validation of many of the emerging Green Technologies.
It was during this period in particular that he amassed a significant data analytical toolkit and patent portfolio, which allows for quick and effective detection of leaks and energy wastage in a process or business, and across a multitude of different industrial sectors.
Brady considers the evolution of Data Science and the availability of Internet of Things enabled metering and sensors as game changers and it is these emerging skills, tools and expertise that he now enthusiastically brings to Novocertus.
He also holds a Masters in Statistics and Reliability and is a LEAN Sigma Black Belt, skills which run complimentary to his lifetime’s energy conservation mission and passion.

Company overview
Novocertus is a data-driven consultancy services business that has the expertise and proprietary toolkit that, when applied to a client’s energy asset data set, can deliver real savings quickly and without the need for any capital investment, unlike many of its competitors.
Follow-on support through its “NovoseeTM” solution, uses emerging Internet of Things (IoT), easy to deploy sensor technology – coupled with a clients existing data – to provide an ongoing, proprietary energy analytics service. Although this offering can allow for continued regular reporting, it is best configured to alert customers only when a significant negative change or drift is determined in critical energy usage areas. This package can, therefore, ensure peace of mind, knowing that those hard earned energy savings are being maintained over the longer term.
By extension, Novocertus also offers carbon reporting services built on these real-time energy performance metrics, to assist businesses with the automation of their ongoing regulatory obligations in this area.
We strive to be authentic in our dealings with all customers big and small…
Company Mission
Novocertus’s objective is to be a market leader in energy awareness and forensics services, providing clients with a better understanding of energy usage in their environments.
From simple easy-to-read awareness reporting for the domestic customer, to the deep-dive forensics level audit for the industrial and commercial sectors, we hope to supply the insights that allow our clients to effectively optimise their energy use.
We will strive to be authentic and forthright in our dealings with all our customers, big and small, and to leave no stone unturned in our bid to support and solve their energy issues.
