ρEnergyManagement
The path to energy-flexible production processes

ρEnergyManagement is the state-of-the-art approach to the holistic energy optimization of production processes and industrial utilities through the use of dynamic electricity tariffs in industrial companies.

ρEnergyManagement forms a platform at the cross-section of topics such as energy management, production scheduling and digital factories.

With ρMonitoring, you can monitor your production-related energy data and processes in real time. Identify optimization potential, reduce costs and effortlessly meet legal requirements – the perfect basis for further optimization with ρControl and ρScheduling.

The module ρMonitoring offers comprehensive live monitoring of your production-related energy data and production processes. It provides you with valuable insights into your energy and production flows, identifies optimization potential and supports you in increasing efficiency.

Via an intuitive user interface, you can see at a glance from which sources electricity is currently being drawn, which loads are occurring and how high consumption is – both in real time and historically. This data forms the basis for further optimization with ρControl and ρScheduling.

With ρMonitoring, you not only directly uncover potential savings, for example by identifying consumers with unusually high energy requirements, but also raise your employees’ awareness of how to use resources more efficiently. The system also supports you in complying with legal energy and environmental regulations.

Rely on ρMonitoring and benefit from more transparent processes, reduced costs and a future-proof production environment!

ρControl automates the control of your flexible processes  and ensure they are cost-optimized based on current electricity prices. Reduce energy costs without additional effort and without affecting your production. Efficient, intelligent and relevant across all industries!

In the example above ρControl controls an air conditioning system in such a way that it does not cool rigidly when a temperature threshhold is exceeded, but instead considers the heating rate of the room and cools it dynamically. In the morning, cooling takes place shortly before and after a price peak so that it is avoided. This is followed by another cooling cycle before another price rise. The temperature remains constant, but electricity costs fall significantly.

ρControl automates and optimizes the operation of flexible processes and electricity storage by taking current electricity prices into account in real time. This allows you to reduce your energy costs sustainably without additional resources or interventions in your production processes.

Our solution identifies flexible processes in cross-sectional technologies as well as in specific industrial plants and makes optimum use of this potential. The result: efficient use of resources and considerable cost savings that are relevant for all sectors of industry.

Our module controls the charging and discharging times of your energy storage systemes automatically and cost-optimized. By intelligently taking PV generation and current electricity prices into account, you can sustainably reduce your energy costs and maximize the benefits of your storage solutions. Use the latest technology for efficient and future-proof energy management!

The graph shows the progression of stored energy in an accumulator on a company site.

With our innovative software, you can optimize the operation of your on-site energy storage systems fully automatically. Our system continuously analyzes the current feed-in of your photovoltaic system and the dynamic electricity prices on the market. On that basis, it decides in real time when to charge or discharge your storage systems – always with the aim of minimizing energy costs and maximizing self-consumption.

Our software ensures that your energy storage units are charged when electricity prices are at their lowest or when your PV system is producing surplus energy. Discharging, on the other hand, takes place precisely when drawing electricity from the grid would be most expensive. This allows you to benefit from intelligent load balancing, avoid expensive peak loads and significantly reduce your energy costs.

Thanks to a user-friendly interface and seamless integration into existing systems, you always have an overview and full control of your energy storage systems. Rely on state-of-the-art technology to make your energy supply more efficient, sustainable and economical.

With ρScheduling, you can use AI-optimization algorithms to create efficient production plans that take into account factors such as electricity prices, processing times and delivery reliability. Reduce your electricity costs by up to 20%, increase your production efficiency and support the production planner – intelligent, flexible, forward-thinking!

The production scheduling module ρScheduling revolutionizes your production processes through the use of AI-optimization algorithms. It creates efficient production plans that not only optimize your production processes, but also take fluctuating electricity prices into account in real time.

The approach is simple, yet highly effective. Different products have different energy footprints, which is why it makes sense to take energy costs into account when planning the production orders. In the example above, a day-ahead-plan is depicted. The diagram on the left shows that the slide car is produced first, then the ball and finally the rubber duck: With a fixed-price electricity tariff, the production sequence did not affect the electricity bill. With dynamic electricity tariffs, however, the time of electricity use makes a considerable difference.
pScheduling schedules the energy-intensive slide car in the afternoon, when the electricity price is lower. The bathing duck is scheduled in the morning when the electricity price is high and the ball in the late afternoon. This means that all order times are adhered to, but production costs are effectively reduced.

ρScheduling offers production planners a selection of optimal production plans, tailored to individually weighted target values such as processing time, electricity costs and delivery reliability. This gives you the flexibility to decide which priorities offer the greatest added value in the current production environment.

The result: up to 20% lower electricity costs, a significant increase in production efficiency and a noticeable reduction in the workload of your energy team. With ρScheduling, you can rely on an intelligent, future-proof solution that sustainably optimizes your production planning and strengthens your competitiveness.
