How can you improve operational performance by tracking and analyzing energy data?

The manufacturing plant is a heavy energy consumer – energy overheads are always the
largest or second largest factory operating expenses. Energy losses and optimization can
be strategically managed by using modern technologies such as big data management,
manufacturing intelligence and advanced analytics to measure, visualize and analyze
energy data in a business context. This forms the foundation for the continuous
improvement process. Understanding and correlating energy data with operations data
can bring in required changes, enabling factories to advance operational performance,
control costs and stay competitive.
