    UK Energy monitor options for new Distribution Panel?

    I need to put in a new distribution panel for under floor (electric) heating. Are there decent energy monitoring devices I can put into the distribution panel so I can keep track of costs? (especially given the soaring energy costs) Ideally something I can view on my phone/tablet. Thanks
