Using IoT technologies, utility companies can capture valuable operational data, then transfer it easily and safely to generate and evaluate analytical reports of the critical aspects of their businesses in a variety of areas. These reports can shed valuable insights and help utility company executives make smart, actionable improvements and create strategic plans that help them reach their business goals. For example, current IoT technologies can help companies gain competitive advantage using the learning from areas such as predictive maintenance, operational safety and efficiency and failure prevention. They can take advantage of the most advanced technology in the market, using the best IoT gateway devices, sensors and software - and utilize the cloud to increase their speed, agility and customer service.
As a member of Intel® IoT Solutions Alliance and a technology partner that provides synergistic IoT solutions for the energy sector, Axiomtek will be exhibiting at the Intel booth #1601 at the 2018 DistribuTECH Conference & Exhibition. It will be at the Henry B. Gonzalez Convention Center in San Antonio, Texas from January 23rd through 25th.
Axiomtek has been utilizing Intel’s advanced processors and other Intel technologies inside the majority of its high quality industrial computer products for more than 25 years. At DistribuTECH, Axiomtek will present its IoT gateway technology that has helped its solar energy customers remotely control solar station's operations and gain instant valuable operational insights. An experienced representative will showcase Axiomtek's end-to-end energy gateway solutions, the ICO embedded system and Axiomtek's proprietary software, the AXView 2.0. The demonstrated information will include the following:
Current Operational Data and Status
- Location information – map view
- Operational data – each inverter’s efficiency level within a month, unusual event log and exception report
- Status of each station’s operations including daily power level, average consumption, historical consumption comparison with the refreshed frequency of one hour and daily average for the same month last year
Operational Report/Analytics
- Charts for comparative data for power generated, pyranometer information and monthly income
- Instant statistical information that includes weather information, humidity, sunlight intensity, today’s power generated and accumulative total amount and income/cost savings of the power generated
- Total reductions in carbon footprint using solar energy instead of other non-renewal energy sources
Remote Operations
- Remote management – On/Off feature
Axiomtek’s ICO DIN-Rail gateway controllers will be showcased at the Intel booth. The ICO300 has been used by world-renowned renewable energy companies to securely manage solar energy battery functions, and connect to the cloud and data centers for data capture and transfer. Axiomtek’s ICO products are highly customizable and expandable with a variety of communication options. They are easy to integrate with sensors and other hardware. Their value-added AXView 2.0 remote monitoring software will help reduce deployment time and associated costs.
Axiomtek’s design and engineering services can also help ease the burden of system design, project management and deployment. The dedicated team can help you meet other challenges faced by utility and energy companies.
