Energy Management System - EMS
EMS
The majority of manufacturers want to install Energy Management Systems in their factories to reduce energy consumption, predict failures and identify root cause abnormalities. EMS Platform allows users to monitor energy consumption information, accurately evaluate energy costs, and optimize energy efficiency by 8-10%.
Benefits Vs Challenges
Benefits
- Centralized monitoring with automatic pre-warning Alarm.
- Real-time End to end traceability of consumption.
- Centralised monitoring with automatic pre-warning Alarm.
- Visibility of utilization of utilities and track them to set baseline values saving from penalties.
- Improve stand-by operation & energy cost per unit.
- Eliminate routine waste & reduce energy cost.
- Proactive alerts of failure and disturbances.
- Enable management with KPI views to set Utility Goals.
- Reduction of production costs and Energy Efficiency.
- Early detection of potential problems leads to increased uptime Maintenance activities , improved Safety and longer machine lifespan.
- Minimize Unplanned Downtime and reduce the maintenance costs & time.
- Remote & real-time monitoring system helps in achieving high operation efficiency.
Challenges
- Chances for human error, Not 100% Accurate readings noted and Only Specific Parameters are Captured.
- Energy utilization analysis performed using Excel based tools, lack of scalability and is unable to manage complexity.
- Lack of data processing capability and required huge volumes of redundant data to be stored and maintained.
- Limited visualization only provided localized view of the system.
- Invisibility of wastage, and any breakdown will lead long time to analyze.
- Predicting the root cause and anomaly is not possible.
- There are no proactive failure and disturbance alarms. .

Advanced Failures Predictions
EMS - Cloud Platform
Ingest and process data from multiple Meters to deliver actionable intelligent reports & alerts. System sends alerts as an email or SMS notification.
Advanced Failures Predictions
Systems are carefully observed for changes that could indicate upcoming failure.The energy parameter data is analyzed to determine that could affect the functioning while it is in operation
