Energy Consumption Management

Develop an OPC UA information model for power consumption management in automated industrial applications. The primary focus is on the communication of energy consumption data, which is to be used in subsequent systems to fulfill use cases from discrete and continuous production, especially concerning the efficiency of the production and consequently the protection of the climate. Existing OPC UA models for Energy Management (e.g., OPC 30141) together with other energy management profiles present in the market will be considered.
It will allow management of energy consumption by automated equipment in manufacturing and processing applications. The model shall is intended to be scalable from small stand-alone devices to complete machines to production cells or entire factories and plants. Therefore, the energy-related Use Cases of existing fieldbus technology shall be considered.
