It is based on the open-source system developed by Open Energy Monitoring called EmonCMS.

That’s fantastic. Nice work. I’ve just tested. It works really well with any Emoncms account.

Thanks for making the app open-source: [GitHub - minigridems/SERC-ENERYGY-METERING-MOBILE-APP](https://github.com/minigridems/SERC-ENERYGY-METERING-MOBILE-APP)

Here are a few screenshots from the app:

Thanks alot,  
We are about to release an open source web application for minigrids only  
and this extends the type of data presented and also it extends the  
duration of the storage of the data

Sounds great.

I have just created an ‘issue’ on our Android app github so our dev community can look at your app and we can learn from each other!

It's got some nice features, maybe there are some elements of it that we can merge / learn from for the official android app.
