What is energy data management?
Understanding the term and applying it using software
Brief definition
Energy data management is the systematic process of collecting, analyzing and using energy and related data in a company. It aims to monitor, control and optimize energy consumption in order to increase efficiency, reduce costs and operate more sustainably .
Why is energy data management needed?
Energy data management is a crucial tool for companies to track and analyze energy consumption in real time. By using specialized energy monitoring software such as the ENIT Agent, companies can gain detailed insights into their energy consumption patterns and make informed decisions to optimize energy use.
The integration of energy data into ERP and MES software allows consumption data to become relevant factors in billing and production. Potential savings can be achieved here and energy purchasing data can also be offset .
Managing energy data correctly
The basis of good energy data management is a modern energy monitoring system that is precisely tailored to the company's needs. We have written a blog post (in german) for you on what is important here and how to proceed correctly .
A good energy data management system can be supplemented by a load management system. This allows the often very expensive load peaks to be precisely analyzed, taken into account in data management and controlled. Here, too, there are many opportunities for major savings .
