Themes

 

Energy optimization and energy management in Data Centers

 

> EXAMPLE IDEAS

  • Energy monitoring
  • Energy Management Software
  • Flexible cooling and power solutions
  • Renewable Integration
  • IT Infrastructure Energy Management

 

> THEME BACKGROUND

Advanced software solutions are used to monitor, control, and optimize energy consumption. These tools provide insights into energy usage patterns, help in predictive maintenance, and enable dynamic adjustments to improve efficiency. Also, incorporating renewable energy sources helps lower the carbon footprint of the data center. Then, that may involve smart grid technologies that allow for better integration with renewable energy sources and more efficient energy use.


 

Digital Battery Circulation with data utilization

 

> EXAMPLE IDEAS

  • EV Battey recycling with digital tool
  • Data collection from the battery production to daily usage
  • Data collection from battery recycling
  • Battery Residual Life management

 

> THEME BACKGROUND

The idea is that the growing use of batteries in various applications, particularly in electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, requires efficient monitoring for maintenance and residual life management. Additionally, employing digital technologies to monitor and manage the recycling of materials and gather data throughout the process is essential. We must ensure sustainable sourcing, efficient production, and responsible disposal or recycling of batteries using digital tools.


 

Enhancing manufacturing and energy efficiency in energy asset production

> EXAMPLE IDEAS

  • Utilizing digital/AI monitoring technology to improve manufacturing efficiency and safety
  • Training/onboarding of new hires for production using digital innovations
  • Quality control in production with technology driven digital inspection tools
  • Energy efficient heating methods to reduce energy consumption as alternative to currently used methods (example vapor phase, hot air circulation and low frequency drying) for Transformer drying.

 

> THEME BACKGROUND

Due to strong market conditions driven by energy transition we are investing heavily to increase our production output for products enabling this transition example Transformers. For enabling this future, we need to look for innovative solutions that enable the “future of production” with smart solutions providing safest place for our employees, improved efficiency and leading quality control in Energy sector.


 

Railway Operation Efficiency with Digital Tool/Data collection

 


> EXAMPLE IDEAS

  • Using digital monitoring technology to enhance operational efficiency and reduce costs
  • Data/image analytics using thermal, sound, and other sensor systems

> THEME BACKGROUND

This concept aims to improve railway operations by utilizing digital tools and data analysis to enhance railway operation and reduce overall costs in terms of energy consumption and maintenance activities. It involves the continuous real-time monitoring of train conditions, track conditions, energy consumptions, and environmental factors using multiple sensors data and digital tools. These solutions are essential for our business as we strive for electrification and aim for Net Zero.
