Comprehensive geothermal systems monitoring.

Overview.

Project background.

Full Stack Energy's client designs and operates large‑scale geothermal heating & cooling systems for high profile blue‑chip venues in New York City. What they lacked was instant, actionable insight into how every well‑field, pump and heat‑exchanger was behaving in the real world. Without that visibility they risked:
  • Hidden efficiency losses that inflate operating costs.
  • Slow fault detection that could jeopardise client comfort‑levels and contracts.
  • A technology ceiling that would stall future scaling.

Full Stack Energy's

Solution.

Full Stack Energy deployed a team of domain experts, that included mathematicians, software engineers, and user interface designers, to work closely with the client's engineering team in order to design and develop a cloud based backend data acquisition and monitoring system alongside a bespoke online portal for data presentation and analysis.

Key technical highlights:

  • Data Acquisition and Transmission: Designed and developed a resilient and robust network of MQTT communications channels between the client’s client equipment and Full Stack Energy’s backend cloud infrastructure.
  • Data Processing: Designed and developed a scalable bespoke Telegraf based system for data ingestion, translation, and loading into InfluxDB data buckets.
  • Data Presentation: Designed and developed a bespoke Grafana based online portal for both dashboard based and complex bespoke vector graphics schematic visualisations. Data querying and presentation was provided for both client’s own engineers and, through a more simplified end user system, for their third party customers.

  • Seamless IoT & Legacy System Integration: Ensured flawless connectivity with existing infrastructure, promoting immediate adoption and minimal disruption.

  • Additional Applications: Aside from the presentation and monitoring of geothermal related telemetry, additional bespoke front end systems were developed in tandem for the presentation and layering of map based geophysical data from third party sources. This was subsequently tied in to the existing company security systems.

Outcome.

Impact & results.

Why it matters.

Full Stack Energy blends domain depth with end‑to‑end engineering: mathematicians, software architects and UX specialists embedded with our client’s own team. We own the complexity so our client can own the results.

Our client now runs geothermal assets with the same rigor as a mission‑critical data centre—maximising efficiency, slashing risk and freeing its engineers to focus on innovation, not interrogation. That’s the measurable difference we bring.

  • Real time visibility: Engineers spot anomalies before occupants feel them due to the ultra low latency pipeline (MQTT → Telegraf → InfluxDB) delivering sub second refresh from hundreds of sensors per site.
  • Seamless scaling: The client can now add new facilities in minutes, not weeks.
  • Actionable visuals: Field teams diagnose issues visually; executives get KPI dashboards, not raw data dumps.
  • Rock solid security: Due to the end to end encryption, segregated buckets, role based access, our client can ensure they safeguard their customer's IP and competitive edge.
