Energy Demand Planning
MPDV Mikrolab GmbH
Energy-optimized production planning
Efficient energy use is becoming increasingly important in the manufacturing environment. Many companies use an energy management system for a better overview. In the next step, energy consumption is integrated into the production planning to optimize utilization of energy quotas. And this is precisely what energy-optimized production planning is all about.
The mApp Energy Demand Planning graphically shows your energy requirements on the planning board. All requirements of the scheduled orders and operations can be cumulated and compared to a configurable load limit. This helps identify potential peak loads at an early stage, take countermeasures and avoid them completely in the future. As a result, your production planning is becoming a tool controlling and optimizing production and energy demand.
Benefits of the energy-optimized production planning
Manage your energy consumption and avoid peak loads. Reduce penalties in energy procurement.
Energy Demand Planning promotes sustainability
Energy-efficient production starts with planning. The application visualizes the planned energy consumption. This helps avoid peak loads and adhere to load limits. Companies save costs and reduce the environmental impact because energy producers do not need to provide unplanned quotas.
Technical information
The mApp Energy Demand Planning is included in the Advanced Resource Planning category of the APS FEDRA.
The mApp uses data of the Virtual Production Reality (ViPR) of MPDV's Manufacturing Integration Platform (MIP).
Energy Demand Planning in the MIP ecosystem
Energy consumption can not only be planned, but also recorded. You can even integrate further resources into the production planning. MPDV provides the following mApps for this purpose:
- Energy Management: Easily record energy consumption in production.
- Predictive Material Planning: Integrate the material required in production into the planning
- Secondary Resource Planning: Plan tools and production resources
