关于客户
EPC Power是北美最大的储能逆变器制造商。该公司在加利福尼亚州和芬兰设有业务，目前正在向南卡罗来纳州扩张，其生产面积增加了一倍多。 EPC Power 的产品由大公司贴有品牌标签，包括洛克希德·马丁公司在内的大型制造商在自己的制造过程中使用他们的产品。作为一家快速发展的公司，EPC Power 需要一个强大而高效的 ERP 系统来管理其不断扩大的业务并确保最佳绩效。
挑战
EPC Power 是北美最大的储能逆变器制造商，其现有 ERP 系统 Odoo 面临着重大挑战。随着该公司准备开设第三家制造工厂，他们越来越清楚地意识到，他们需要一种更先进的解决方案来有效管理其不断扩大的业务。由于功能有限且处理速度缓慢，Odoo 被证明是 EPC Power 的瓶颈。该系统缺乏对公司运营至关重要的前端配置器、会计可追溯性和售后服务。员工经常需要等待 20 到 30 分钟才能在 Odoo 中加载某些内容，这不仅效率低下，而且有损员工士气。
解决方案
为了寻找更高效、更强大的 ERP 系统，EPC Power 评估了几个知名的 ERP 系统。他们对展示每个模块功能的深入演示印象深刻，最终选择了 OptiProERP。 OptiProERP 提供了一个精简的系统，没有任何间歇性步骤，这是对 Odoo 的重大改进。新系统使 EPC Power 能够完全定义其流程并使用格式良好的数据生成必要的报告。此外，OptiProERP 还提供了整个组织的自动化和产品配置器模块。该模块使 EPC Power 能够定制产品、自动化 BOM 并生成工单，从而增强其制造能力。

Hydro One Leads the Way In Smart Meter Development
In 2010, Ontario’s energy board mandated that time-of-use (TOU) pricing for consumers be available for all consumers on a regulated price plan. To meet this requirement, Hydro One needed to quickly deploy a smart meter and intelligent communications network solution to meet the provincial government’s requirement at a low cost. The network needed to cover Hydro One’s expansive service territory, which has a land mass twice the size of Texas, and its customers live in a mix of urban, rural, and remote areas, some places only accessible by air, rail, boat or snowmobile. Most importantly, the network needed to enable future enterprise-wide business efficiencies, modernization of distribution infrastructure and enhanced customer service. To meet these needs, Hydro One conceptualized an end-to-end solution leveraging open standards and Internet Protocols (IP) at all communication levels. The utility drew upon industry leaders like Trilliant to realize this vision.

Selling more with Whirlpool
Whirlpool wanted to add connectivity to appliances and transform the company's relationship with customers. Traditionally, Whirlpool interaction with customers was limited to purchases made once every ten years. Connected washer and dryers provide exciting new features like remote management of start times and inter-machine communication.

Real-time In-vehicle Monitoring
The telematic solution provides this vital premium-adjusting information. The solution also helps detect and deter vehicle or trailer theft – as soon as a theft occurs, monitoring personnel can alert the appropriate authorities, providing an exact location.“With more and more insurance companies and major fleet operators interested in monitoring driver behaviour on the grounds of road safety, efficient logistics and costs, the market for this type of device and associated e-business services is growing rapidly within Italy and the rest of Europe,” says Franco.“The insurance companies are especially interested in the pay-per-use and pay-as-you-drive applications while other organisations employ the technology for road user charging.”“One million vehicles in Italy currently carry such devices and forecasts indicate that the European market will increase tenfold by 2014.However, for our technology to work effectively, we needed a highly reliable wireless data network to carry the information between the vehicles and monitoring stations.”

SAS® Analytics for IoT: Smart Grid
Companies face falling revenues, rising infrastructure costs, and increasing risk of outages caused by inconsistent energy production from renewable sources. Less money is coming in as more people and organizations take steps to curb their energy use. Utilities are paying more to maintain and build infrastructure due to increasing complexity, resulting from the rising number of intermittent and variable renewable energy sources connected in the distribution grid.

Enel Secures Italian Power Generation Network
Electric energy operators around the world are working to increase the reliability and cyber resiliency of their systems. This includes Enel, a global power company that manages and monitors the Italian power grid. This grid:• Serves 31 million customers• Has a net installed energy capacity exceeding 31 gigawatts• Includes more than 500 power generation plants,including hydroelectric, thermoelectric, and wind• Is managed and monitored by Enel 24/7/365• Is operated by Terna, the Italian Transmission System Operator (TSO)Enel is responsible for the availability of the grid’s underlying ICS and industrial network. It also manages Regional Control Centers and Interconnection Centers which connect with the TSO. The TSO manages the flow of energy to the grid plus controls and remotely regulates the power generation of power plants, increasing and decreasing power production as required. The complex system of interaction and cooperation between Enel and the TSO has strong security implications as well as operational and business challenges.

IoT based Energy Quality Availability Monitoring Solution
There were several challenges faced:Since this data would be in the public domain, accuracy and authenticity of this data were of paramount importance. It should be able to withstand scrutiny.It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance.The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.The platform that deals with the data should be readily available and highly reliable and never lose a packet of data.
