It is a cutting-edge platform for the management and optimization of utilities. It explores and presents better economic utility plans even for complex utility systems.
In the plant, various utilities such as fuel, electricity, and steam are consumed, which fluctuate constantly through multiple routes. Process plants can produce their own steam and fuel, and in the case of electricity, they can also sell it externally. The energy unit of each utility varies hourly, and factors such as maintenance of major equipment lead to daily fluctuations, making the issues even more complex. gUTILITIES finds precise optimal solutions while considering the current utility demand, utility unit costs, and availability, allowing for the identification of appropriate operating conditions even for complex utility systems. Cutting-edge optimization algorithms can search for and present better economic utility plans compared to traditional tools. High-speed optimization solvers can explore more options in a shorter time, thereby improving the efficiency of the energy management team.
