Energy efficient and sustainable

Infrastructure

An efficient transportation infrastructure - from bus stations to airports - is an elementary component for the smooth functioning of any society. Due to their complexity, efficient management of infrastructural buildings is essential.

A well-functioning transport infrastructure enables and promotes social and economic life. Efficient management of these systems is crucial, particularly in optimizing energy use and sustainability, as they often involve complex, resource-intensive operations.

Janitza's energy measurement technology provides detailed insights into energy consumption patterns, helping infrastructure managers to monitor, analyze, and improve energy efficiency. This not only reduces costs and environmental impact but also enhances the reliability and performance of the infrastructure.

Challenges for infrastructure buildings

Due to their complexity, buildings in the transportation infrastructure sector face considerable challenges: On the one hand, they must ensure smooth operation and, on the other, efficient energy use. Transparent energy monitoring and a reliable power supply are indispensable components of this.

Effective energy monitoring not only provides clarity about energy consumption, but also facilitates well-founded decisions for optimal energy management. At the same time, a stable power supply is essential to avoid interruptions and ensure the provision of critical services. These measures therefore support both the resilience of the systems and the achievement of sustainability goals.

Smart energy and power monitoring for critical power systems
Ensure high availability of power supply
Ensure high power quality
Record billing relevant data
Ensure fire protection & EMC - Residual current monitoring (RCM)
Set up an energy management system
Monitor, measure and control the buildings' energy consumption

Application

Energy and power quality monitoring at airports

Airport facilities and infrastructure have enormous energy requirements. Comprehensive monitoring of energy consumption and power quality is crucial to ensure smooth airport operations.

Precise control of energy consumption is essential in many areas, including transfer stations, IT and server systems, emergency lighting and ventilation systems, shopping arcades, food courts, terminals and parking areas. Reliable energy measurement technology ensures efficiency, safety and the continuous availability of all essential services.

Applications at various parts of the airport:

Food court, shops: Energy Management System, Power Quality Monitoring, Third-Party Billing
Lobby: Residual Current Monitoring, Power Quality Monitoring, Energy Management System
Gateways: Energy Management System
Offices: Residual Current Monitoring, Energy Management System
MV/LV Infeed: Residual Current Monitoring, Power Quality Monitoring, Energy Management System
IT server: Residual Current Monitoring, Power Quality Monitoring, Energy Management System
PV system: Energy Management System, Load Management
Overall: Grid Distribution for Electricity, Water, Heating and Cooling

Application

Sea port / Container terminals

The power distribution system interacts with numerous systems or “nodes” when transporting power to the various consumers in a container terminal. Each of these nodes can cause issues and delay project execution.

The key in managing this risk lies in precise interface definition between all nodes. This should be an integral part of the terminal’s electrical infrastructure design and should be defined and integrated into the power distribution system.

Applications used in various areas of port:

Transformer Station: Power Quality Monitoring
Power Distribution at Cranes: Power Quality Monitoring, Residual Current Monitoring
Electrical System of the Cranes: Energy Management System, Power Quality Monitoring
Control Center / Building Management System: Energy Management System
IT Server System: Power Quality Monitoring, Residual Current Monitoring
