Energy Monitoring¶
Location: Dashboards → Energy Monitoring
Industrial energy analytics for assets equipped with Schneider PowerTag sensors. Track consumption (kWh), power (kW), cost, and CO₂ emissions in real time.
Overview Tab¶
KPI Cards¶
| KPI | Description |
|---|---|
| Energy Consumption | Total kWh consumed in the selected period |
| Average Power | Mean power draw (kW), with peak power noted |
| Energy Cost | Estimated cost based on configurable rate per kWh |
| CO₂ Emissions | Carbon footprint in kg, using configured emission factor |
Charts¶
- Power Trend — line chart of power (kW) over time. 24h view shows hourly resolution; 7d/30d shows daily labels.
- Voltage — line graph of voltage (V) readings.
- Hourly Consumption — bar chart showing total kWh aggregated by hour of day, identifying peak load times.
Live View — when a single asset is selected, a "Live View" button opens a detailed real-time modal for that asset.
Per-Asset Tab¶
Detailed breakdown by individual asset.
Asset Table (sortable)¶
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Rank | Position by energy consumption |
| Asset | Name and type |
| Energy (kWh) | Total consumption — click to sort |
| Current Power (kW) | Latest reading |
| Utilization % | Operating hours ÷ total hours |
| Cost | Estimated cost for the period |
| CO₂ (kg) | Carbon emissions |
Click View to open the asset detail modal with dedicated power charts and zoom controls.
High Consumer badge — appears on assets in the top 20% of energy usage.
Pareto Charts¶
- Energy Consumption Pareto — bar + cumulative line showing top 10 consumers and their share of total. Identifies the 20% of assets responsible for 80% of consumption.
- CO₂ Emissions Pareto — same analysis for carbon footprint.
Predictive / Analytics Tab¶
Efficiency analysis and anomaly detection.
KPIs:
| KPI | Description |
|---|---|
| Avg kWh per Operating Hour | Fleet-wide energy efficiency |
| Most Efficient Asset | Lowest kWh per operating hour |
| Least Efficient Asset | Highest kWh per operating hour |
| Machines Monitored | Total PowerTag-equipped assets |
Energy Per Hour chart — horizontal bars showing kWh consumed per operating hour per asset:
- Green = below average (efficient)
- Amber = above average
- Red = 1.5× above average (inefficient)
Inefficiency Warnings — alert box listing machines consuming more than 150% of the average energy per operating hour, with percentage above average.
CO₂ / Environmental Tab¶
Carbon emissions analysis and environmental impact.
KPIs:
| KPI | Description |
|---|---|
| Total CO₂ | kg of CO₂ emitted, with average factor shown |
| Tree Equivalent | Trees needed to offset annualized emissions (~22 kg CO₂/tree/year) |
| Savings Potential | Estimated kg CO₂ reduction if switching to cleaner grid (Norway baseline: 0.028 kg/kWh) |
Charts:
- Top 10 Emitters — horizontal bar chart of highest CO₂-contributing assets
- Emissions by Asset Type — doughnut chart breaking down CO₂ by equipment category
Filters¶
| Filter | Effect |
|---|---|
| Time range | 24H, 7 Days, or 30 Days |
| Asset Type | Filter by equipment category |
| Asset | Focus on a single asset |
| Clear Selection | Reset all filters |
Configuration¶
Click Configuration to customize:
Energy Cost:
- Cost per kWh (e.g., 0.25)
- Currency (EUR, SEK, USD, GBP)
CO₂ Emission Factors:
- Default factor (kg CO₂ per kWh) — select from presets (Sweden 0.045, Germany 0.385, France 0.052, etc.) or enter manually
- Per-asset-type factors — override the default for specific equipment categories
Sensor Technologies:
- PowerTag — Energy Monitoring (primary)
- Wirepas — Temperature & Location
- At least one type must be selected
Asset Types:
- Checkbox filter — same as other dashboards
Data Sources¶
| Metric | Source |
|---|---|
| Energy (kWh) | PowerTag sensor readings via wirepas_sensor_data |
| Power (kW) | Real-time PowerTag measurements |
| Voltage / Current | PowerTag electrical measurements |
| CO₂ | Calculated: kWh × emission factor (configurable) |
| Cost | Calculated: kWh × cost per kWh (configurable) |
| Utilization | Operating hours estimated from reading frequency |
PowerTag sensors required
This dashboard requires Schneider PowerTag energy meters. Assets without PowerTag sensors will not appear. Ensure tags are associated with assets on the Assets page.
