ECOMAP – ENERGY MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (EMIS)
EcoMap application is an Energy Management Information System (EMIS) designed to continuously model, track and maintain the lowest possible energy and utility steam/hot fluid costs. The EMIS continuously access energy costs and the minimum achievable Benchmark (BM) or good practices for current production and ambient conditions. The EMIS identifies at any time the internal consumers (departments) that are not meeting their prescribed Benchmarks. The EMIS integrates criticals parameters alarms which help to quickly re-establish the required operating conditions that comply with the desired Benchmarks.
EcoMap: Real Time Energy Management Information System (EMIS) Optimization and loss reporting for industrial process plant
EMIS Benefits
- Lower thermal energy cost by 3% to 5% through real time Energy Management Information System (EMIS) calculation and balance
- Online in a few months and generates early cash flow
- EMIS to manage the energy on a daily basis and meet the monthly budget
- Eliminate internal costs for EMIS development and EMIS support
- Accurate energy Data
- No more thermal energy audit required
EMIS Features
- Data analysis based on EMIS real time energy balance – EnerMap
- EMIS BenchMarking (BM) capabilities based on (1-historical data, 2-theoretical curve, 3-best available technology) to calculate the GAP ( difference between current and targeted)
- EMIS calculates in Real-time or on demand critical information for energy consumption, available through MySite network (Historian, DCS, PLC);
- EMIS which combined thermal energy cost and target
- Thermal energy cost production and target
- Thermal energy cost used and target: Energy losses are broken by processes and by key parameters
- EMIS help to monitor the performance of new EcoEnergy projects and their true impact on global energy cost
- Data interface with the EMIS and the plant historian with low or no Input required
- EMIS easy to configure, EMIS easy to implement, EMIS easy to maintain.
EMIS Functionalities
1. RealTime Energy Consumption Meter (Current & Target): This view shows short term (past & forecast) global energy cost and consumption and the global cost impact (GAP)
2. TreeView Configuration with built-in component’s library
3. Real-Time Energy calculation available through site network: Return EcoMap calculation to plant historian, DCS, PLC.
4. EnerMap: Real Time Energy mapping which re-conciliate thermal energy producer and user based on real time data and manual input. In order to speed-up calculation, correlations based on snapshot operational data are used for long term energy balance.
5. BenchMarking function: Analyze and select the best past performance period and used it as reference
6. Real-Time reporting: Publish on demand or scheduled reports to generate information that can be used to correct off-target process. The information is organized to prioritize corrective actions to address first which process impact the most the energy cost. Following are few sample of custom reports
Thermal energy cost production and target: Analysis of how the thermal energy has been produced
Thermal energy cost used and target: Analysis of how the thermal energy has been used and the true impact on the cost operation (past and forecast) split by sector and by process. Use cost impact to prioritize corrective actions.
