Casuso Propellers saves up to 17% on its electricity bill with Forewatt
Industrial sector · Marine propeller manufacturing
Casuso Propellers, a marine propeller manufacturer, has cut its electricity bill by between 8% and 17% with Forewatt, the Evenbytes prescriptive artificial intelligence solution that plans production around the price of energy.
The challenge
In foundry processes, energy can account for up to 40% of total production costs. With highly volatile prices and the factory’s physical and capacity constraints, it is very difficult to reduce that cost without knowing when and how best to consume energy.
The solution
Evenbytes implemented Forewatt, which optimises production planning taking into account:
- Hour-by-hour energy prices.
- Available resources.
- The factory’s capacities.
Using this data, it generates an optimal daily or weekly consumption plan, with no need to install hardware or carry out building works.
Results
- Between 8% and 17% savings on the electricity bill.
- Savings that are verifiable and auditable.
