Lean Energy Management for manufacturers
Revealing the Power in the Process
Lean Energy Management provides manufacturers with a quick and reliable way of seeing how much
energy is being consumed by individual pieces of equipment.
Quickly generate your Shop Floor's Energy Profile.
Energy costs are rising. Manufacturers are realising that energy is not an overhead but a resource
that needs careful management. Understanding where, when and how much energy is being used
on the Shop Floor is key to optimising your energy consumption.
Overview
"TED Live" - TEDs Lean Energy Management solution can help you to quickly understand where
energy is being used on the shop floor. With continuous measurement of energy right down to
individual machines or motors we can identify Areas of Opportunity to reduce energy waste.
The solution is made up of 3 layers:
· the hardware layer to gather energy data and pass it to our servers,
· the software layer that includes a data store and the analytical engine to transform the data
into knowledge, and
· the services layer that provides expert interpretation into what the knowledge means to our
clients.
2. Electricity
Our hardware can measure electricity consumption for both single and three-phase feeds. We can
measure from as little as 15A up to 600A per phase at multiple voltage levels. For the majority of our
installations we do not require power to be shut down making the solution ideal for 24x7
operations.
Gas
Using the latest technology in pulse or image recognition meters we can capture consumption data
down to equipment level. This means that we can rapidly identify areas of opportunity to reduce
energy costs for equipment such as boilers, heaters, furnaces or heat treatment plants.
Water
By attaching flow meters or pulse meters to various points on the site TED can provide a detailed
view of where water is being consumed.
Benefits
· The Energy Measurement solution developed for Manufacturers
· On average we find the opportunity to reduce energy consumption by 21%
· Multiple sensors provide a level of detail down to individual machine or motor
· Real-time data collection providing power, cost and CO2 generated
· Installed with no disruption to production
· Web based dashboard allows for drill down reports and graphs
· Supports your Environmental and Social Responsibility Agendas.
3. Options
Fully Managed Leased Solution
This option is the most popular as it provides manufacturers with the ability to capture an energy
profile across their shop floor.
This is usually configured to measure the top 20 energy users for example air compressors, CNC
machines, heat treatment plants or chillers.
"TED Live" provides this option on an all-inclusive fixed price delivery which includes:
· Installation
· The hardware for measuring one facility and up to 20 three phase machines
· Access to the data-store and analytical engine
· Monthly reporting and round table discussions to help you understand the information
This option is also available as a purchased solution for those manufacturers who want to own the
solution out right.
Bespoke configured solution
This option is recommended for clients who wish to manage the project on their own or wish to run
a continuous energy optimisation programme over a long term.
TED will provide a no obligation technical survey to ensure that the right hardware and networking
protocols are specified for the site.
Clients also have the choice of either a desktop version of the analysis engine or to use our web-
based version to provide energy reporting.
