Industry is the main area of energy consumption. Industrial energy consumption accounts for more than 70% of total energy consumption of the whole society. With the acceleration of industrialization and urbanization of China, the task of energy saving and emission reduction in industry becomes heavy and the pressure gets heavy as well. The application of information technology in establishment of digital energy management and control system, achievement of on-line monitoring of energy consumption and accurate grasp of energy consumption situation of key industry, enterprise and process in real-time is not only an inevitable requirement for enterprises to refine their management of energy and promote energy conservation and consumption reduction, but also the prerequisite and foundation for industrial and information administrations at all levels to grasp the trend of energy consumption, strengthen the forecast and warning of energy consumption and formulate industrial policies in a scientific way. Furthermore, it is also the intrinsic requirement for the promotion of industrial transformation, industrial upgrading and green development as well as the establishment of a resource-saving and environment-friendly industrial system.

GB/T 23331-2012 Energy Management Systems - Requirements
Energy management system, energy management center and energy efficiency benchmark construction (“three energy” system construction) are the key point of energy conservation. In the meantime, the promotion of on-line monitoring of energy consumption and system certification is not only the inevitable requirement for enterprises to achieve efficient energy management, but also the intrinsic requirement for competent department of energy conservation at all levels to grasp the regional trends of energy consumption.
The main task of construction of energy management center in enterprises is to monitor, record, analyze the data of resource/energy (such as electricity, raw coal, natural gas, oil and water) consumption and products (such as steam and thermal energy) generated during energy conversion, and provide guidance based on the analysis results. Monitor the detailed use of various kinds of energy by enterprises in real-time to seek direct and scientific basis for energy conservation and consumption reduction and find out the improper aspects in energy and resource consumption, so as to further improve energy management and reduce production and operation cost. In that way, the use of energy will be more reasonable, the energy waster will be controlled and the aim of energy conservation, emission and consumption reduction and benefit creation can be achieved. The analysis based on the monitored data can help enterprises assess their major energy-consuming equipment in real-time to eliminate waste and further optimize the use of such energy, so as to reduce the consumption cost of each unit and maintenance cost of equipment, improve the overall competitiveness of enterprises and upgrade the management of operation, measurement and energy conservation in enterprises.
In the meantime, by connecting with the government energy management platform through the intelligent industrial energy management system platform, enterprises can strengthen their management in industrial energy consumption and take technically-feasible and economically-reasonable measures accepted by both the environment and the society, so as to reduce the energy consumption and pollutant emission in all aspects of industrial field and use energy in an efficient and reasonable way.
Users can connect and equipment can be connected to our intelligent industrial energy management platform via Internet. User can create different projects on line and such projects will operate on the same platform. However, the interface and data will be identified and separated according to account/project, providing users with user-specific experience. Alternatively, uses can install the whole platform to server cluster of their own monitoring center or the server cluster leased by a public data center.
The system platform supports a variety of networking solutions, such as field bus, Ethernet and wireless 3G/4G network. The whole platform can be divided as four parts, respectively field measurement and control instruments, network communication equipment, cloud computing and processing center and business processing end.
The cloud computing center is the core of the whole platform. It includes acquisition server, database server and Web presentation server and supports various kinds of arrangement methods. It can be arranged at public cloud, private cloud or user’s local server.
The business processing end is the operating client of the platform. It can be accessed by web via Internet, local LAN or even APP on mobile phones. In that way, business can be processed perfectly at any place and any time.
The network communication equipment includes various kinds of equipment, such as communication management machine and exchanger. It is responsible for the data acquisition, data caching and data upload on the site and supports transmission via LAN, public network, 3G/4G wireless network and wireless GPRS.
The field measurement and control instruments are various kinds of measurement meters locally installed in the distribution cabinets and distribution boxes. Multi-function measurement meters with different sizes and installation methods can be selected according to the nature of the project:
One type is new industrial projects. In such type, panel instruments such as SFERE720, SFERE100 and PD19 series are preferable. They are equipped with RS485 communication interface and provided with functions such as on-site networking communication and data upload.
The other type is the industrial projects on transformation purpose. Since such projects are old projects, the meters originally used are pointer meters. Sometimes, there are even no instruments installed. Therefore, such instrument shall be subjected to intellectualized transformation and equipped with RS485 communication interface. In that way, networking function can be achieved. Series of instruments, such as PD194Z-E and SFERE700 are preferable because they can be installed on rails and support multi-loop measurement, presenting the characteristics of easy installation and high economy.
