The challenges of an energy-intensive industry

Due to many thermal processes, the food industry is one of the most energy-intensive industries. Processes such as cooling, drying, pasteurization and storage require large amounts of cold and heat. Since many companies are currently electrifying their heat generation, their demand for power is rising sharply. With it, the optimization potential that you can leverage with AI-based energy management is increasing.

Applications in the food industry

Consumption and production forecasts

Our flexOn energy management platform visualizes all relevant internal energy and operating data, as well as external data on weather and market prices, in real time. The artificial intelligence behind flexOn uses this data to create precise consumption and production forecasts at plant, location and corporate group level. This enables you to optimize energy supply and helps you to reduce equalising energy risks.

Automated optimization

The AI behind the flexOn energy management platform automatically optimizes your cooling systems and electrical heat sources. Electricity consumption can be optimized simultaneously for various target variables such as renewable energy generation, atypical grid use, increased efficiency and spot market prices for electricity and gas.

Creating cost-optimized schedules

With the help of previously calculated forecasts, the energy management platform creates cost-optimized schedules for your heat generation plants and plant networks such as CHP or Power-2-Heat plant. The energy management platform for the food industry takes into account both dynamic fuel prices and your own energy production.

Multi-use storage optimization

Regardless of whether it is a battery, heat, cold or high-temperature storage tank: The flexOn energy management platform helps you to fully leverage the potential of your storage system. Thanks to the multi-use approach, flexOn uses your storage in various applications, such as self-consumption optimization or atypical grid usage. The aim is always to reduce your energy costs as much as possible.

With the help of real-time simulation, we are happy to support you in your decision.

Peter Bade reference case

In the past, Peter Bade GmbH had no overview of its energy flows. The company was therefore barely able to react to fluctuating electricity prices. Thanks to our energy management platform, these hurdles have been overcome. flexOn has achieved significant savings and increased the self-consumption of the PV system.
