BUILDING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS


to make a £211,383 saving at just one location. By monitoring real-time energy usage of critical energy-hungry machinery and using our PowerRadar platform to examine the data, we identified that a conveyor motor was not working correctly, which was creating a process bottleneck. Further cost savings have been made by identifying and eliminating unnecessary out-of-hours energy use.


DECARBONISE YOUR BUSINESS AND SIMPLIFY COMPLIANCE Improving energy and operational efficiency not only saves money but also translates into carbon savings to help keep your net zero goals on track in difficult economic times. This enables you to get ahead of increasing environmental regulation and carbon taxation, while meeting the sustainability expectations of your customers, employees, investors and other stakeholders. Altex Group, for instance,


is using our IoT energy insights solution to


reduce CO2 emissions by 53,553 tons, while also cutting energy costs by 8%. Our Panoramic Power


“By attaching wireless IoT sensors to energy intensive assets at a circuit level and using an advanced energy management


platform to analyse and visualise that captured data, you can gain complete 360˚ vision of your site-wide electricity”


wireless sensors were used in each production facility to capture the energy consumption data of critical assets, such as air compressors, refrigeration equipment, cooling towers and evaporators. It was revealed that a 4% reduction in energy


consumption could be achieved by using timers to switch equipment off during non-operational hours. A further 12% reduction in energy use was achieved by analysing and optimising the sequencing of compressor operation.


REPORTING ENERGY PERFORMANCE By shifting to a data-driven energy monitoring strategy, users gain a clear view of carbon performance to meet increasing regulatory and legislative oversight of Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Detailed data can also be collated


across multiple sites and reports downloaded for environmental and fiscal reporting – for example, to assist compliance with the Energy Savings Opportunity Scheme (ESOS) or Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) and the new Taskforce on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).
