Calculation of Energy Footprint of Manufacturing Assets

TL;DRAbstract

Energy efficiency is one of the important topics in manufacturing sector, primarily due to increasing energy prices, ecological concerns and stringent regulations. Industries that have already spent many years in improving energy efficiency now find it difficult to propose and implement additional improvement measures. This thesis proposes a way to identify potential areas for improvements in energy efficiency by calculating energy footprint of the manufacturing assets. The information on energy footprint is provided using analytic tools. The main goal of the thesis is to demonstrate how energy footprint can help in making decisions regarding the manufacturing facility that may lead to improvement in the overall energy efficiency of the system.
\nFor purpose of energy data analysis, a methodology is proposed in which the analytic tools are developed as web services. This methodology is suitable for implementation within a service-oriented manufacturing facility. The core analysis o
