For schools, factors such as large campus areas, diverse functional buildings, and high foot traffic often lead to high energy consumption costs, placing considerable burdens on school operations and management. By building a smart campus energy consumption monitoring and management system, it is possible to understand the usage of various energy sources such as water, electricity, gas, and heating, down to different time periods and different buildings, as well as to identify where energy usage is high and where abnormalities occur, which plays an important role in saving energy and improving energy utilization efficiency.

By deploying energy data acquisition gateways in scenarios such as each power distribution room, water supply station, and heat exchange station on campus, and connecting them to smart electricity meters, water meters, heat meters, and other devices, energy consumption data can be collected in real time and connected to the campus energy consumption monitoring and management platform, thereby enabling classified metering, visual display, abnormal alarms, and data analysis of energy consumption, and providing comprehensive and reliable data support for energy conservation and consumption reduction efforts.

Implemented Functions

Real-time collection of various energy consumption data such as water, electricity, and heat, and connection to the campus energy consumption monitoring and management platform via 5G/4G and other networks, enabling one-to-many data acquisition with high concurrency, low power consumption, and breakpoint resume capabilities.

Formation of device directories for different scenarios, thereby enabling classified management of energy consumption in dormitories, teaching buildings, offices, streetlights, etc., and providing understanding of energy consumption data for air conditioning, lighting, heating, water usage, irrigation, etc., for convenient reference and search.

By setting alarm thresholds and notification methods, rapid alarms can be issued when abnormal energy consumption is detected, with notifications via WeChat, SMS, email, and other methods, enabling rapid localization, diagnosis, and measures.

Connection to the building intelligent control system to achieve remote control of PLCs, thereby enabling remote start/stop of equipment such as air conditioners, fans, water pumps, and valves. Automatic alarms can also be issued in the event of faults, and measures can be taken to ensure safe and stable equipment operation.

Continuous tracking of campus energy consumption data reports, and by comparing energy consumption differences under different conditions, abnormal high energy consumption and energy-saving potential can be identified, thereby formulating scientific and reasonable decisions and further improving energy utilization efficiency.
