Energy Data Collection · Electricity, Water, Gas & Steam Sub-Metering

Sub-metered collection of four energy types — electricity, water, gas and steam — aggregated to cost across six dimensions: workshop, line, equipment, work order, product and operation. Energy bills are crystal clear, and carbon emissions, energy per unit and energy-saving project ROI are all traceable.

Capabilities

Core Capabilities of Energy Management

From meter collection to cost allocation to energy-saving improvement

🔌 Sub-Meter Collection

Smart electricity / water / gas meters and flow meters integrated via Modbus RTU/TCP, with minute-level meter reading stored to the database

📍 Multi-Dimensional Allocation

Energy aggregated layer by layer — workshop → line → equipment → work order → product → operation — with books reconcilable to reality

💰 Energy Cost

Tiered electricity tariffs and peak/flat/valley time-of-use rates applied automatically, with energy cost booked into work-order cost

🌎 Carbon-Emission Tracking

CO2 emissions converted per ISO 14064 / GHG Protocol standards, supporting Scope 1/2/3

📊 Energy-Efficiency Analysis

Trend comparison of energy per unit and energy per labor hour, instantly locking onto abnormal shifts / equipment

💡 Energy-Saving Projects

Project initiation → implementation → benefit tracking, with the saved kWh and electricity cost made real and visible

From Main Meter to Sub-Meter: See Exactly Where Energy Goes

Many factories have only one main entry meter, so the monthly bill only yields a total. SBK MES recommends a three-tier "main meter + sub-meter + equipment meter" architecture, with independent meters on each line and key machine, making energy flow crystal clear.

  • Electricity: smart multi-function meters supporting three-phase four-wire + harmonics
  • Water: ultrasonic / turbine flow meters in DN20–DN400 specs
  • Gas: compressed-air flow meters + natural-gas flow meters
  • Steam: steam flow meters with temperature and pressure compensation

Build Energy into Every Work Order's Cost

Energy is manufacturing's third-largest cost after labor and materials, yet traditional ERP usually allocates it to product cost only "by apportionment." SBK MES allocates equipment energy precisely to work order / operation by run time, making energy per unit real and visible.

  • Equipment energy aggregated as run time × unit-energy factor
  • Non-production energy (standby / lighting / HVAC) classified separately
  • Peak/flat/valley tariffs auto-costed by time slot
  • Compare energy of the same product across shifts to find savings potential

Carbon-Emission Tracking: The Data Foundation for ESG Reporting

More and more customers, export orders and IPO requirements demand carbon-emission disclosure. SBK MES converts energy data into CO2 emissions per ISO 14064 / GHG Protocol standards, covering Scope 1/2/3, automatically producing the base data for ESG reports.

  • Scope 1 direct emissions: fuel combustion
  • Scope 2 indirect emissions: purchased electricity / steam
  • Scope 3 value chain: upstream/downstream transport / travel / materials
  • Product carbon footprint: kgCO2-per-unit label
