Predictive analytics to energy demand forecasting
Appleton Greene & Co Global – Urbanization trend of mega-cities, integration of infrastructures creates an impression of possible mega solutions of energy demand and supply. The practice shows the solutions are always specific and very often, unique. Matters like energy security, reliability and resilience goals differ geographically, nationally, according to the market and business.
Appleton Greene & Co Global – Accurate measurement and monitoring of water, electricity, and gas consumption, make full support to analyzing the energy demand, thus contribute to its predictability and predictability of the whole business. After a certain initial period of metering and sub-metering, it is possible to set and fulfill smart, measurable, attainable, reasonable and time-framed objectives of reduction of energy usage. Continuous metering will help the fine tuning of the settings, or detection of abnormal results, making possible quick decisions and errors reduction. In case of expected disaster, natural or technical, the company is prepared and can apply a short time preventive intelligent reaction.
Appleton Greene & Co Global – The energy management plan is prepared after gathering, processing and analysis of field data and the outcomes are: energy baseline, energy performance indicators, short-term and long-term goals and action plans. The task of the plan is to increase cost awareness of the organization, resulting in implementation of constant improvements of the energy demand management. Besides data collection from metering, the analytics require application of various analytical methods, for example seasonal spread, monthly or daily fluctuations, human behavior related, or even influence from the instability of the oil price. The ultimate goal is to embed a consistent framework of methods and approaches, in order to establish a proper predictability and management of all energies demand, with respect to the total business control.
Risk mitigation via securing of the energy supply and the applied smart energy measures, lead to total cost efficiency
Appleton Greene & Co Global – The energy market in general is with high risk due to the volatility. The trend of steep slide of oil & gas prices forces countries and companies to change their plans and budgets. The growth of energy demand, leads to development of technologies of generation and distribution. Energy business requires an increased interaction with other related sectors and interconnected businesses – facility management, transport, tourism and recreation. The current developing trends in policies and technologies in energy business, lead to new challenges – tariffs, access, and reliability of the power system, environmental impact and risks.
Appleton Greene & Co Global – The increasing procurement of renewable energy and its integration to the network requires new technologies to sustain reliability. Their variability adds to the complicated prediction of the electrical grids. Constantly evolving regulations influence the technologies and vice versa, the new technologies require new regulations. Each participant in the energy business is playing a role of risk creation or mitigation. A comprehensive risk management can prevent the occurrence and mitigate the consequences of major incidents with energy supply. Smart grids, providing on-line data and fast reaction, improve the reliability with reduction of black-outs, better efficiency and peak load management. Smart measurement and monitoring of water, electricity, and gas usage, supports the energy demand analysis; thereby contribute to its predictability and predictability of the whole business. New technologies allow the smart metering to be done live and from distance and results to be available at any time. After a certain initial period of metering, smart, measurable, attainable, reasonable and time-framed objectives of energy usage reduction can be set. Continuous metering detects abnormal results, making possible quick decisions and errors reduction. When a natural or technical disaster is anticipated, a company can apply a short time preventive intelligent reaction.
