A certain hospital’s main energy consumption types are electricity and natural gas. Natural gas is primarily used to supply gas-fired boilers for producing domestic hot water. Energy-consuming equipment includes power supply and distribution facilities, HVAC systems, domestic hot water units, lighting, and medical and healthcare facilities. As medical demand and the scale of the hospital continue to expand, energy costs have been steadily rising, particularly during summer cooling and winter heating periods.

To address this, WideIOT deploys industrial intelligent gateways to connect to smart electricity meters and gas flow meters. These gateways enable real-time data collection of electricity consumption by various equipment and gas consumption by boilers. The data is transmitted to an energy management platform via 4G networks, enabling remote monitoring, alerting, management, control, and statistical analysis. This solution helps improve energy management efficiency and utilization, achieving goals such as energy savings, cost reduction, and efficiency enhancement.

Key Features

1. Comprehensive Access to Energy Equipment and Sensors: Supports multiple industrial protocols, enabling high-precision and automated collection of core energy consumption data such as electricity and natural gas, addressing the pain points of manual meter reading.

2. Multi-terminal Remote Monitoring: Supports remote monitoring via PC and mobile devices, allowing real-time viewing of energy consumption and operating status of different departments and equipment. Multi-network redundancy ensures uninterrupted monitoring and no data loss.

3. Intelligent Alerting Mechanism: Customizable alert thresholds cover various abnormal scenarios. Alert information is pushed in real time through multiple channels, and automatic logging of alerts helps prevent energy risks and ensures safe energy use in the hospital.

4. Advanced Statistical Analysis Capabilities: Generates energy consumption reports across multiple dimensions, accurately identifies high-energy-consumption areas and equipment, analyzes trends and causes of fluctuations, optimizes energy dispatch, and enables on-demand energy use.

5. Modular Design: Flexibly expandable for additional monitoring categories and management functions without major modifications to existing systems. Seamlessly integrates with existing hospital systems such as HIS and BMS, breaking down information silos and adapting to the hospital’s long-term development needs.
