Energy Monitoring

Here is a list of possible energy management solutions in different buildings, institutions:

Spa – wellness
  • Implementation of load-shedding (in case of electricity and gas)
  • Monitoring of consumption and subscribed-power optimization
  • Cost-allocation and sub-billing
  • Change-over automatic solutions
  • Applications to improve energy efficiency (renewable energy sources, variable frequency drivers etc)
  • Building maintenance and monitoring solutions (SMS and/or e-mail alarms, alarms and events logs, keeping track of events and event change, application of automation software)
Hotels
  • Implementation  of lighting control
  • Monitoring of consumption and subscribed-power optimization
  • Applications to improve energy efficiency (renewable energy sources, variable frequency drivers etc)
  • Building maintenance and monitoring solutions (SMS and/or e-mail alarms, alarms and events logs, keeping track of events and event change, application of automation software
Industry and Production Plants
  • Collection of measurement data, checking power quality- avoiding short service life of equipments
  • Implementation of building/production plant  monitoring and maintaining solutions  (SMS and/or e-mail alarms, alarms and events logs, keeping track of events and event change)
  • Monitoring consumption and controlling electric system (keeping track of position indicators and alarms)  executing switching functions- system monitoring and simplifying maintenance tasks
  • Defining energy consumption and production cost per production unit
  • Application of change-over automatic solutions, improving power supply security
  • Implementation of lighting control system- reducing used energy
  • Applications to improve energy efficiency (variable frequency drivers, pressure boosters)
  • Collection of measurement data of more sites in one system (centralized energy management) – application of integrated electrical contracts
  • Comparing energy use and production data of different production plants, application of global solutions,  controlling  and improving possibilities of global energy efficiency indicators in a multi-national environment
  • Application of renewable energy sources- reduction of CO2 emission

Will COVID-19 accelerate the shift to Industry 4.0?

The current global health crisis is also a business and economic crisis and will change the way we work, with a greater focus on technology. That's according to Nigel Green, CEO of financial advisory firm deVere Group, who says that a recession triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic will lead to a "fundamental shift" in how we live, do business and invest. In particular, Green expects to see an acceleration in the adoption and development of Industry 4.0, or the fourth industrial revolution, reports technology and business news provider Verdict. "The coronavirus outbreak can be expected to speed up the so-called fourth revolution, which is fuelled by new technologies such as artificial intelligence and mobile supercomputing," he said. The physical distancing and self-isolation measures currently in place around the world are likely to help reinforce the adoption of digital technologies, Green added. "Enforced social distancing will highligh

Manufacturers turn to automation and smart tech as coronavirus hits production

Image
The coronavirus pandemic is likely to hasten the rollout of automation and smart technology in the manufacturing industry. Government rules aimed at stopping the spread of COVID-19 have kept employees at home and disrupted supply chains. As a result, manufacturers around the world have been forced to chose their factories and radically rethink how they operate.   In a recent article for CNBC.com, Rebecca Fannin looked at how the virus has impacted manufacturers based in China, the first country to be hit by the virus. The biggest impact was seen in sectors with large assembly operations such as auto manufacturers and electronic component makers. Resuming production "has been a struggle" at many factories, but highly automated plants such as Cadillac's new Shanghai facility had a head start, Fannin explained.  The Cadillac factory, opened in 2016, has 386 robots and two fully automated production lines that do welding and painting.   One clear, long-term imp

Crisis presents opportunity for manufacturers to reassess their digitalisation

Image
A crisis is a defining moment, and it can take a crisis like the COVID-19 pandemic for people -- and companies -- to find the courage to make significant changes to the way they do things. In the manufacturing industry, the pandemic represents an opportunity for firms to reassess their digital strategy, writes Paul Hogendoorn in an article for Manufacturing Automation. The current crisis is of sufficient magnitude that the trajectories of many businesses will be altered, Hogendoorn explains. How they fare will be to a large extent affected by the decisions and choices they make. Hogendoorn goes on to discuss the three most common conversations he had with manufacturers before the pandemic struck: - the challenge of digitising their work flow; - gaining visibility into their production condition in real time; and - the need to make their factories and jobs more attractive to a younger work force. When it comes to attracting the next generation into manufacturing, we need t
