Identify and boost your potential energy savings
Helping to shape the energy shift is a huge challenge facing both the industry as a whole, and you as a market player. ONCITE DPS can help you to manage your production from a cost and energy availability perspective.
When it comes to optimising your energy use, transparency and measurability are the crucial first steps. Understanding and being familiar with your consumption is the key to optimising it and your downstream energy management. The ONCITE DPS Energy Monitoring software module enables the monitoring and optimization of energy consumption in the industrial sector as well as in the data center. This allows you to gather, analyze and track production and performance data in near real time in order to improve energy efficiency and reduce costs.

Energy transition in the smart factory at Rittal
Modern energy management generates competitive advantages
Since 2019, Rittal has been operating a state-of-the-art paint shop at its plant in Haiger, which processes between 12,000 and 15,000 products every day. In 2023, the plant was equipped with the ONCITE Digital Production System (DPS) to enable precise monitoring and optimization of production processes and energy consumption. A dashboard displays important energy KPIs, such as energy consumption per piece and per painted area in square meters, and compares them with production data. This creates a holistic overview of production performance and energy efficiency. As a result, significant energy savings and higher output can be achieved.
- Identifying and exploiting potential energy savings
- Improved production process and increased output
- Reduced reaction time in the event of faults thanks to real-time transparency
- Improved understanding of energy consumption and enhanced conscientious use
Energy and power in your production plant
Sustainability starts with energy consumption
If you monitor your power consumption and can visualize the power curves in correlation with the production processes and other environmental parameters, you will be able to identify where energy can be saved. For example, it can be determined that on average around 30 percent of the energy consumption of machine tools is used in standby mode to maintain process stability. Only a quarter of the total power consumption is used by the manufacturing process itself.
As the prerequisite for energy management, energy monitoring not only benefits production but also minimises the factory’s carbon footprint and contributes to climate protection.
- Detailed overview by recording and measuring energy data.
- Identify and exploit potential energy savings.
- Correlate energy data such as electricity or gas consumption with production data and other environmental parameters
- Manage energy consumption in combination with production processes, economically and ecologically.
Reduce costs
Increase (energy) efficiency
„Reducing the base load and avoiding peak loads are extremely effective at significantly reducing energy consumption in production. Our energy monitoring tool provides the ideal basis for energy management.“
