The ongoing trend towards renewable, volatile energy sources is driving the balance between demand and supply far apart. Periodically an oversupply or shortage of power can occur. The effects are usually seen within the electricity exchange market and the significant price fluctuations. Businesses can profit from these exchange fluctuations which will lead to substantial positive cost effects.
We have developed innovative methods and processes for a dynamic load management to meet our customers needs and to let them profit from the changing market conditions.
Together with our customers we create a technical concept for every unique case requirements. This concept consists of all installation types with their respective order, priority and the time frame of their connection and disconnection frequencies. With the help of historical data, we can define the dependencies of production and consumption. This allows a solid foundation for evaluations of load plans based on production planning.
The total consumption of the respective site as well as the relevant energy consumers and producers have to be measured consistently in a detailed manner.
Therefore, we connect the meters with varied data loggers (WiriBox). To minimise the risks with hardware failures or further technical problems that could lead to a total breakdown, we advise to divide the meters up onto several data loggers. The measured values are transferred and channelled onto a server with a powerful data base.
On the basis of the collected values, current data of switchable users and the plan-/forecast data we can transfer a switch command directly from the server to the machine control, which then takes on the operation. Following the displacing of the switch command, the status of the consumer as well as the measured values of the linked meters are monitored to guarantee the correct results.
These methods can be used to profit from the fluctuations of the spot market prices or to achieve optimal purchasing terms due to constant load profiles.
