2.1. What are the customer challenges?

It is predicted that the world’s energy demand will double by 2050, and over the same period, the world’s CO2 emissions need to be halved. Therefore, as the cost of energy inevitably increases, customers will face huge challenges to manage energy costs, regulations, and energy efficiency.

Thus, major challenges facing our customers are increase production, reduce the energy footprint, and be able to easily monitor and analyze in depth the whole plant energy consumption to optimize the process.

2.1.1. Better master electrical energy consumption & reduce cost

Indeed, in all our industrial facilities, one key challenge is to increase operational efficiency. More and more, companies are asked to reduce their energy cost, while at the same time being more productive with a varying energy price.

Customers need to have an in-depth energy usage view to plan for better reductions:

 Reduce the energy bills while still having the same production capacity.

Customers need to easily contextualize production with energy usage to improve operational efficiency:

 Simplify and standardize the energy management process.

Minimize the carbon footprint of the plant:

 Achieve CO2 reduction goals.

2.1.2. Provide regulation compliance and deliver reports

Customers need to regularly publish reports for compliance.

Whatever the segment, standards guide companies to implement an energy management solution:

 Can I comply with ISO 50001 certification?

In the plant sources of data are different, needs and tools are multiple:

 Suffering from multiple repositories of data.
