This work presents the efforts on optimizing energy consumption by deploying an energy management system using the current IoT component/system/platform integration trends through a layered architecture. LoBEMS (LoRa Building and Energy Management System), the proposed platform, was built with the mindset of proving a common platform that would integrate multiple vendor locked-in systems together with custom sensor devices, providing critical data in order to improve overall building efficiency. The actions that led to the energy savings were implemented with a ruleset that would control the already installed air conditioning and lighting control systems. This approach was validated in a kindergarten school during a three-year period, resulting in a publicly available dataset that is useful for future and related research. The sensors that feed environmental data to the custom energy management system are composed by a set of battery operated sensors tied to a System on Chip with a LoRa communication interface. These sensors acquire environmental data such as temperature, humidity, luminosity, air quality but also motion. An already existing energy monitoring solution was also integrated. This flexible approach can easily be deployed to any building facility, including buildings with existing solutions, without requiring any remote automation facilities. The platform includes data visualization templates that create an overall dashboard, allowing management to identify actions that lead to savings using a set of pre-defined actions or even a manual mode if desired. The integration of the multiple systems (air-conditioning, lighting and energy monitoring) is a key differentiator of the proposed solution, especially when the top energy consumers for modern buildings are cooling and heating systems. As an outcome, the evaluation of the proposed platform resulted in a 20% energy saving based on these combined energy saving actions.

Self Assessment

As one manufacturing industry with a large level of energy consumption makes energy management mandatory applied at PT. XYZ, the purpose of this research is to design energy management system implementation strategy in PT. XYZ based on ISO 50001. Started by self assessment and by collecting data on the use of primary energy sources in the company, followed by processing and analyzing using simple linear regression. The self assessment results show 38% of the total value’s completeness of existing program in the clause of ISO 50001. From the processing and analyzing’s energy usage showed energy baseline and energy performance indicators (EnPI) of the company. The result of research is identifies and proposes the potential of energy savings in air compressor distribution system, steam boiler distribution, and electrical distribution system with good housekeeping, control system, and modification, proposes the energy management system implementation based on Deming’s PDCA cycle, and continued by recommending roadmap towards the implementation of energy management systems.

Energy Monitoring

Statistics show that energy is one of the highest operating costs in a manufacturing enterprise. So, improving energy efficiency can lead to a significant increase in profits and reduce the impact of the enterprise on the environment. To increase the performance of energy efficiency activities, it is necessary to implement an energy management system. One of the components of this system is energy monitoring, which, in turn, is based on the periodic collection and analysis of data to assess the state of the monitoring objects in terms of energy efficiency. In this paper, the role and place of energy monitoring in the energy management system of an industrial enterprise are noted. The paper proposes the concept of creating energy monitoring system in industrial companies, which is based on the combination of a monitoring system based on specific energy consumption, and usage of group energy characteristics of production facilities. Implementing such energy monitoring systems will allow to conduct operational control of energy efficiency of production facilities by creating individual systems for monitoring energy efficiency, as well as successfully carry out such monitoring at the enterprise and its subdivisions over longer periods of time using specific energy consumption indicators. It also provides general guidelines for conducting energy monitoring. These guidelines were formed based on the results of studying various methods and scientific publications in the field of energy monitoring, as well as on the basis of practical experience in the development and implementation of energy management systems. Particular attention is paid to the issues of processing and analysis of information about the objects of energy monitoring of industrial enterprises. The practical application of the concept of creating energy monitoring systems envisages gradual improvement of the existing monitoring system based on the specific energy consumption, which will be further completely replaced with individual energy efficiency monitoring systems.

Raising rate and require of power has led a lot of organizations to discover elegant ways for monitoring, controlling and reduction energy. To create an innovative idea to reduce the rate of energy consumption smart EMS (Energy Management System) is proposed in this paper. To develop IoT technologies and Big Data is used to improved hold energy utilization in commercial, housing and industrial sectors. An EMS is used to build smart homes is proposed for he developed cities. In this system, every residence tool is interfaced with a data attainment module that is an IoT object with an exclusive IP address ensuing in a huge mesh wireless network of devices. The data gaining SoC (System on Chip) module collects energy utilization data from every device of every stylish residence and send data to a centralized server for supplementary handing out and study. This information from all housing areas accumulates in the utility’s server as Big Data. EMS consumes off-the-shelf BI (Business Intelligence) and Big Data surveys software packages which improves the energy usages also to assemble user order. While air conditioning gives to 60% of power use in American countries, HVAC (Ventilation, Air Conditioning and Heating) are in use as a research to approve the proposed system.
