Case Studies
Glass products

Energy management in glass manufacturing companies includes complete digitalization of energy data with the purpose of implementing an energy management system which provides a transparent view over energy consumption, offering a tool for employees to perform more relevant activities in order to reduce energy costs.

Metering points: 315 metering points,

Solution used:

• Monitoring of the following resourses: electricity, compressed air, natural gas, oxygen, water (sanitary water, cooling water),
• System and process monitoring: Machine status monitoring (machines, furnaces, lighting and cooling technologies, vacum pumps); Air and water conditions monitoring temperature & pressure); Alarming in case of system failures; Inefficient operations and water leakages,
• Energy efficiency analysis and predictions: Energy efficiency performance indicators (EE of machines); Energy consumption vs. production output; Energy consumption vs m3 compressed air; Energy performance and targeting (targeting energy consumption quantities and costs); Alarming in case of consumption or cost deviations

Products used:

• GemaLogic Monitoring & Energy Efficiency module
