With the increasing majority of people living in cities, urbanization poses significant short- and long-term challenges to governments and municipalities.
A Smart City shares its digital infrastructure and data to enhance livability, workability and sustainability. Wonderware software enables cities to access real-time, critical data to make better, faster and more efficient decisions for their communities.
Wonderware offers a comprehensive portfolio of software solutions designed to deliver efficient, secure and reliable operations for single buildings through large multi-building campuses. These solutions address today’s green initiatives and complex regulatory compliance requirements and help minimize cost while ensuring a safe work environment for all types of facilities.
Wonderware solutions deliver secure, efficient and reliable facilities management operations, whether a single building or a large multi-building campus.
Demands for computing power continue to grow at an astounding rate and data centers are instrumental in meeting those demands. They house computer systems, telecommunications and storage systems, and generally include redundant or backup power supplies and data communications connections, environmental controls and security devices.
Wonderware System Platform provides a single, scalable software platform for integrating a wide range of devices, systems and data sources into a unified operations management solution.
Wonderware System Platform capabilities include real-time graphic visualization, automated data collection, alarm and event capabilities and reporting and analysis available through the web-based and via mobile devices. Because it is high-volume, commercial, off-the-shelf software, it can be configured and programmed to cost-effectively deliver to a wide range of applications, including data centers. ArchestrA-based technologies have been used in diverse applications that require connecting to, monitoring and managing environmental systems such as heating/ventilation/air conditioning (HVAC), lighting, power, steam and water, which are critical to data center operations. Cost savings of up to 30% in utility usage and cooling energy are possible by applying Wonderware software for monitoring, reporting and supervisory control of data center support systems and operations management.
Key Benefits
Key Capabilities
Road, rail, air and water transportation networks are complex. They must operate safely, reliably and efficiently and be regulatory compliant. Wonderware solutions are based on the advanced ArchestrA software architecture, making them open, easily integrated and highly scalable. They include applications for tracking real-time and historic data, managing passenger communications, and monitoring facilities, assets and functionality.
Road, rail, air and water transportation networks depend on Schneider Electric industrial software for safe, reliable, efficient operations and for regulatory compliance.
Managing power transmission and distribution through grids and substations requires overseeing a complex set of solutions including local and remote user interfaces, engineering configuration tools, integration to legacy Intelligent Electrical Devices (IEDs) with multiple protocols, hardware and application services.
The Schneider Electric Substation Automation System combines these elements to simplify your automation projects and ensure reduced capital and operations costs, enhanced operational efficiencies, fewer and shorter outages and improved customer service.
Addressed Key Challenges
Power generation companies that generate power from renewable sources like hydro, solar, wind, geothermal or bio-fuels do so while dealing with intermittent availability of the energy sources. They also face the challenges of minimizing the carbon footprint and holding down costs while observing regulatory requirements. Generating power more efficiently and reliably and moving it to the Smart Grid creates additional challenges for renewable power generators. Schneider Electric helps generators manage large, sometimes widely distributed generation pods or facilities in real time via its power fleet generation management solution.
Wonderware offers products and services designed to help deliver secure and reliable operations, meet regulatory compliance, manage operation performance and control costs. This enables Water and Wastewater companies to provide an affordable service to customers while pursuing sustainability goals.
Wonderware solutions integrate a wide range of water utility applications across all departments, functions, and existing systems to create a comprehensive real-time operations management environment built for the modern municipality or wastewater operation.
Wonderware experts help devise a solution that links your disparate applications into a more collaborative, cohesive environment – enabling significant savings in operations workload requirements, staffing, quality improvement and coordination of effort. And the solutions platform we’ll recommend will be flexible and scalable, enabling easy administration that allows you to adapt to changing demand and regulatory requirements.
