How can energy consumption be monitored and mapped for energy modelling?

This study is currently in progress and will conclude by the end of 2023.

Challenge and Motivation

  • Up to 25% of the global energy consumption is caused by industry.
  • Climate change and political enforce a reduction in energy consumption.
  • Lack of energy data to optimize for energy efficiency in Production line. 

Objective

  • Develop monitoring system and IoT sensors to measure power consumption
  • Provide APIs to interface with other application to map energy data

Procedure

  • Develop a simple P&P IoT sensor to measure energy flows.
  • Develop a monitoring framework to gather and store power consumption data.
  • Provide APIs to map the energy data with other application for energy modelling
  • Validate the framework on the shopfloor with one machine.
