Energy Measurement and Monitoring Management System: Empowering the Creation of Energy-Efficient Factories

As China's manufacturing sector continues to expand, the need for refined and efficient energy management has become increasingly pronounced.

 The diversity of production line equipment, the complexity of calculation formulas, and the urgency of real-time data statistics pose significant challenges for enterprises in complying with policy regulations and controlling energy consumption costs. In response to national policies, ensuring adherence to industry standards and technical specifications, while reducing energy costs and enhancing energy utilization efficiency, companies urgently need to deeply reform traditional energy management models and transition towards a "digitalized" energy management system.

Monitoring Pain Points:

1. Lack of a Unified Platform for Data Aggregation: This results in a lack of a holistic view in energy management, making effective analysis and decision-making difficult.

2. Absence of Real-Time Monitoring of Energy Utilization Data: Inability to swiftly identify energy waste issues, thereby limiting the implementation of energy-saving optimizations and cost control measures.

3. Data Collection Challenges Due to Diverse Instrumentation and Protocols: The need for multiple instruments for water, electricity, gas, and heat, along with varied device protocols, leads to data silos and hinders data collection.

Solution:

By integrating WideIOT (previously known as Wutongbolian) energy data acquisition gateways with water meters, electricity meters, gas meters, heat meters, and other instrumentation devices, real-time collection of water, electricity, gas, and heat energy consumption data is achieved.

 This data is then uploaded to the cloud platform or upper computer via wired/wireless networks, enabling automatic formula calculations and the generation of visualized data reports and curve graphs. This provides reliable data support for energy management, energy-saving optimizations, and energy consumption warnings, facilitating the creation of energy-efficient factories.

System Features:

1. Establishment of an Energy Archive: Records and manages energy consumption data, covering the full lifecycle management of energy monitoring indicators, energy-using equipment, and metering devices (for measuring energy such as water, electricity, and oil).

2. Real-Time Update of Energy Consumption Data: Displayed in tabular form and stored in a database, allowing quick querying of both historical and the latest data, and the rapid generation of annual, monthly, and daily energy consumption reports.

3. Customizable Alarm Conditions: Users can set alarm conditions based on custom strategies.

    Once energy consumption data meets these conditions, the system automatically triggers an alarm mechanism, notifying via WeChat, SMS, email, etc.

4. In-Depth Analysis and Visualization: Analyzes energy usage from perspectives such as total energy consumption, sub-item energy consumption, and energy flow, and displays this data using visual dashboards. This helps managers intuitively understand energy usage, identify high-energy-consuming points or unreasonable energy consumption habits, and formulate energy-saving strategies.
