Find out how leading industrial companies from our network are successfully using Energy Monitoring with IIoT technologies. Our tried-and-tested use cases show you how networked systems optimize energy consumption and which partners can support you.
Industrial IoT is revolutionizing Energy Monitoring. Do you want to boost your energy efficiency but aren’t sure where to start? Our platform provides proven, practical solutions – potentially even approaches that your competitors have already successfully implemented.
The continuous recording of energy consumption is carried out on a unit-specific basis, for example per machine, system, device, or usage unit. The measurement data is visualized and analyzed centrally, allowing consumption trends, peak loads, and deviations to be clearly traced and presented. The analysis enables a structured assessment of energy use and consumption development across different levels.

Companies with photovoltaic systems use IoT-powered solutions to make the most of their self-generated energy. Excess energy is strategically stored or used for electric vehicles instead of being fed back into the grid. This saves them costs and maximizes their energy efficiency.
By analyzing electricity tariffs and real-time prices, companies shift energy-intensive processes to cheaper time slots. This significantly reduces energy costs and optimizes utilization.
IoT systems detect peak loads and compensate for them using batteries or alternative energy sources. This prevents high grid loads, avoids peak load tariffs and saves energy costs in the long term.
Sensors monitor critical systems and detect leaks automatically. This enables fast repairs, reduces energy losses and improves the efficiency of production systems.
Using data-driven forecasts, companies in our network can purchase proactively, whether through short-term spot market purchases or long-term PPAs (power purchase agreements).
IoT sensors and AI-supported algorithms from our network enable precise prediction of energy requirements. This enables smart production planning, in which energy-intensive processes are postponed to times when electricity prices are low.
Companies use IoT-supported systems to make the best possible use of their self-generated energy. Excess energy is strategically stored or used for electric vehicles instead of being fed back into the grid. This saves them costs and maximizes their energy efficiency.
Energy Monitoring systems enable the comparison of energy consumption across multiple sites. This creates transparency and facilitates the implementation of best practices for maximum efficiency.
Companies can sell surplus or unused energy to the balancing energy market. IoT platforms from our network help to control this in real time and monetize it in the best possible way.
Light management enables automated control of individual luminaires based on presence, daylight, and time profiles. Through IoT sensors and addressable controllers, not only is energy saved, but the flexibility in the use of the logistics hall is also increased.
Thermal ceiling panels allow climate control of individual rooms based on actual demand. IoT sensors record temperature and occupancy data, which control actuators for valves and pumps. This enables energy-efficient and comfortable operation in real time.
The charging infrastructure for electric vehicles is dynamically controlled to avoid peak loads and make optimal use of PV surpluses. IoT systems manage charging priorities and ensure that mobility remains sustainable, cost-efficient, and grid-stable.
The photovoltaic system is intelligently integrated into energy management. IoT-based forecasts and real-time measurements adjust consumers to yields and electricity prices. This maximizes self-consumption, reduces grid feed-in, and lowers costs in the long term.
Cooling and heating storage units serve as energy buffers. IoT-controlled hydraulic systems such as the Zortström ensure stable temperature levels and optimize operating times of heat generators. This enables load shifting and increases supply security.
IoT-enabled sensors continuously monitor the flow rates of air or water. These data help control consumption more effectively, use resources in a targeted way, and sustainably improve the overall energy and resource efficiency of the facility.
Battery storage systems provide load shifting and secure backup power supply. IoT controllers dynamically manage charging and discharging depending on PV yields or electricity prices. This makes the energy system more resilient, reduces costs, and significantly increases supply security.
The energy management system consolidates all energy flows digitally on a single platform. IoT controllers collect data, SCADA and cloud systems visualize them. Companies gain transparency, meet ESG requirements, and increase efficiency as well as supply security through data-driven decisions.
Providers from our network whose IoT and IIoT solutions have been tried and tested in practice.
Do you want to optimize your energy consumption using Industrial IoT data or have you already taken the first steps? But now you’re faced with a variety of solutions and providers, and you’re looking for a clear path to effectively leverage existing data and knowledge?
Efficient Energy Monitoring requires a precise interplay of modern sensors, networked data integration and smart analysis – tailored to your individual goals and requirements.
The basis of every IoT and IIoT project lies in data acquisition and pre-processing (EDGE). The data from the field and control level can be transmitted either directly by wire or wirelessly. Operational parameters such as temperature, pressure, force, or production data in real time are captured – and made available for any use case.
A seamless transfer of captured data is essential. Many companies combine wireless and wired solutions depending on the use case – for secure data transmission to the cloud or locally. Suitable networks for distance, data load and environments as well as high security standards are crucial in order to avoid downtimes.
Data only becomes valuable when it is seamlessly integrated into existing IT and OT systems. A strong connection between machine level, MES, ERP systems and other business solutions enables efficient processes and consolidated insights. Keywords: Data Warehousing, Data Lake and Database (storage)
Master data for products and services is often not uniformly classified and is available in data silos. When implementing use cases such as traceability, digital type plates, the digital product passport (DPP) or the product carbon footprint, this leads to high costs in data engineering due to duplication of work and inefficient processing. Uniform data formats, standardized product descriptions and technical concepts such as the Asset Administration Shell (AAS) are therefore crucial.
IoT/IIoT data analysis provides real-time insights into processes through, for example, data event-driven apps, real-time analytics, and root cause analytics. Tools such as MVDA, OEE, process KPIs and Predictive Maintenance can be used to identify anomalies and optimize processes. Low-code solutions also facilitate rapid implementation.
Protection against unauthorized access, theft or manipulation is an issue for every company in our network. Our partners are working on solutions for the optimal use of digital identities and encryption technologies for secure access and communication of your devices, machines and systems.
The services provided by our partners support companies from our network in the implementation and optimization of IoT solutions. This includes consulting, customization, training and technical support. The aim is to make processes more efficient, integrate systems seamlessly and derive maximum benefit from IoT/IIoT data.
