Facility Energy Waste
Non-production areas (offices, breakrooms) or machines are left on during off-hours, wasting thousands in electricity.
The Problem
Industrial facilities have massive baseload energy usage. Identifying 'Ghost Loads' during non-working shifts can reduce utility bills by 10-15% without impacting production throughput.
