Huashan Hospital North at Fudan University, a leading healthcare facility in China, was facing several challenges. The hospital was constructed under technological and budget constraints in 2012 and was struggling to operate sustainably and reduce energy consumption. Compared to other local hospitals, Huashan Hospital North had poor power visibility and significantly higher energy consumption relative to the number of beds. The hospital's systems were not integrated, meaning they lacked a unified interface for ease of management. There was also no way of detecting potential problems in the power system or identifying hidden dangers in electrical safety that could cause downtime in operations. The logistics staff at the hospital was motivated to improve these conditions and sought out connected technology to create a smart logistics nerve center, better manage their systems, and provide eco-friendly outcomes.

Wilmar Sugar Australia, the country's leading manufacturer of raw sugar, operates eight sugar mills in Queensland. The company crushes about 15.5 million tonnes of sugarcane each year, producing more than two million tonnes of raw sugar. Wilmar is also Australia’s leading producer of renewable energy from biomass. The company's Invicta Mill, one of Australia's largest sugar mills, required a major upgrade of its boiler control system to ensure the ongoing safety and reliability of the site’s power production capabilities. The existing boiler control system equipment was reaching its end of life and required replacing. An upgrade was planned to simplify the control systems and embed safety procedures into the system, itself. The ideal solution was a control system that would enable Wilmar to have a complete view of all the factory’s systems in one easy-to-use interface.

Veolia Water Technologies, a global provider of water and wastewater services and solutions, was contracted to build a water treatment facility on the Sorrento coast, Italy. The situation was serious as more than half of the population was discharging waste directly into the sea, and the other half into a treatment facility that did not comply with regulations. These challenges drove Veolia to design a state-of-the-art solution for their plant at Punta Gradelle. With sustainability being one of their key values, Veolia’s plan was not only to treat wastewater, but to also do it sustainably, reusing the recovered material for industrial and irrigation purposes. To realize these ambitions, they needed an advanced supervision system that could provide insights for efficient management across the facility as well as individual operating units.

GreenAlp, the electric distribution network operator in Grenoble, France, serves over 120,000 customers, including residential and electro-intensive industrial customers. The company is committed to being green and innovative, but as a mid-size electrical company, it does not have the capacity for its own research center. It relies on local actors and advancements in the industry. GreenAlp has 6 main electrical substations of 225,000 volts or 63,000 volts which transform into 20,000 volts and especially 750 MV/LV substations. These MV/LV substations have aging equipment that constantly needs renewing. One of GreenAlp’s aims for this project is to learn how it can renew its existing switchgear in the future. Service continuity has been one of GreenAlp’s main challenges. It needs real-time knowledge of the network, which can be challenging.

The Bainbridge Island School District, located on a beautiful island in Puget Sound, is a 35-minute ferry ride from downtown Seattle, Washington. The district provides a world-class education to 4,000 children in grades K through 12. However, the district's network’s system uptime is often challenged by the inclement weather that often passes over the island. The area experiences many storms with winds that reach 40 to 50+ miles per hour. When that happens, power outages are almost guaranteed. The island is very wooded, so power lines are at risk when trees and branches fall. The district experiences about 10–15 storms per year and these usually generate about 12 power outages a year. Flickering power levels (brownouts) are frequent and these also disrupt the uptime of the critical computer assets. With such a widespread and distributed network to manage, and with limited human resources, the district needed a simple and reliable way to remotely monitor system issues.

Nestlé Nescafé, the world’s largest soluble coffee factory, faced a significant challenge with unplanned stoppages disrupting production. In one year, the factory experienced eight unplanned stoppages, which had a significant impact on production efficiency and costs. The factory, located in Toluca, Mexico, produces one million jars of coffee every day, and any disruption in the production process can have a significant financial impact. The factory operates 365 days a year, and any unplanned stoppage can impact the reliability of the processes and affect what makes it to grocery shelves. In 2013, Nestlé invested approximately $125 million to expand this plant, increasing production by 40% and making it the largest soluble coffee facility in the world. At this scale, even modest gains to energy efficiency and service improvements translate to sizable cost savings. Improving the reliability of the facility’s electrical equipment would deliver the productivity, efficiency, and maintenance benefits Nestlé sought.

Hyatt Regency® Mexico City needed to modernize its power equipment without disrupting the guest experience. The hotel had the infrastructure it needed for daily operations but lacked visibility into the status of crucial power equipment, such as transformers. Without real-time monitoring of the state of the electrical system, the hotel risked power failures that could compromise the guest experience, and the risks only increased as energy demands grew. But the hotel faced another problem — its existing equipment wasn’t designed to guarantee constant power during maintenance or repair activity. Power outages weren’t an option; any type of disruption could negatively impact the guest experience, from the guest staying on the top floor to those attending events hosted in the hotel’s conference areas. To maintain the hospitality experience — and to keep its reputation intact — HRMC needed to ensure reliable power around the clock.

Azalys, a waste treatment plant in Carrières-sous-Poissy, France, needed to modernize its electrical system while ensuring continuous service for local communities. The plant, which serves an area inhabited by almost 300,000 people, treats 125,000 metric tons of waste and produces 40 GWh of electricity per year. The plant incinerates non-recyclable waste and transforms the heat into steam, which is then converted by a turbo alternator into energy. Some of this energy is consumed by the site itself, while the rest is sold to the electricity distribution network Enedis. The health of the electrical equipment is crucial to the plant’s mission. The modernization process had to be as swift as possible in order not to interrupt the service provided to the local communities.
