Material Sciences Corporation Revolutionizes Energy Management
Transforming Energy Management with Sanalife's E360
Material Sciences Corporation (MSC) has made significant strides in improving its energy efficiency through the utilization of Sanalife's E360 Energy Management System (EMS). This innovative software has enabled MSC to enhance its performance in PJM's Demand Response (DR) program, effectively doubling its operational efficiency. The enhancement in program performance has led to a remarkable 50% reduction in the frequency of demand-shedding, allowing MSC to surpass its DR objectives and gain a substantial competitive advantage.
Real-Time Insights and Automated Decision-Making
By integrating E360 into its operations, MSC has transitioned from traditional energy management approaches to a more adaptive, real-time strategy. This change is vital due to the volatility of PJM supply and the fluctuations in electricity rates. E360 provides MSC with critical insights into substation performance, helping the company make data-driven decisions that enhance production uptime and introduce new revenue streams associated with energy efficiency.
E360’s Advanced Features Boost Efficiency
The installation of Sanalife's E360 means that MSC now has the capability to operate with 1-minute interval data, significantly better than the typical 15-minute utility cadence. This level of real-time insight allows MSC to make precise operational decisions aligned with the electric grid's current conditions and forecasts. The software empowers MSC to automate peak load reductions, thereby reducing the chances of unnecessary shutdowns and ensuring the continuity of production processes.
Proactive Demand Response Management
MSC has now adopted a more proactive approach to managing demand response. The use of E360 allows the following enhancements in MSC's operations:
- Instantaneous, substation-level load intelligence.
- Comparison capabilities between PJM utility and zonal load data.
- Direct access to PJM forecasts for up-to-date operational adjustments.
- Live tracking of 5CP indicators for precise peak load strategies.
- Elimination of manual forecasting through automation.
- A reduction in curtailments, leading to increased production uptime.
Matt Murphy, the Chief Technology Officer of MSC, expressed the remarkable difference E360 has made in their operations: "Overnight, this software became one of the most essential tools in our entire plant. With rising cost pressures and shifting regulations, E360 delivers the foresight and control we never had before. We're no longer reacting; we're optimizing our production output and driving down energy costs."
The Rise of Intelligent Energy Management
Across the PJM region, more organizations are realizing the benefits of integrated platforms like Sanalife's E360. This software facilitates not only the automation of peak reductions but also helps businesses tap into greater demand response earnings. Organizations are now empowered to engage in demand response initiatives for the first time, thanks to the accessible data and forecasting capabilities provided by E360.
Trustworthy Data Drives Effective Decisions
Ashish Goel, CEO at Sanalife, stated, "Demand response only works when decisions are based on reliable, accurate data. E360 makes that possible. With our direct integration with PJM, energy teams gain real-time visibility into grid conditions and forecasts they can trust, enabling them to reduce risks and maintain control over their operations."
As MSC joins a growing number of forward-thinking organizations utilizing E360, they are shifting from reactive to performance-driven energy management. In a time when the energy landscape is increasingly unpredictable, many companies are leveraging the real-time insights offered by E360 to improve system performance, navigate volatility, seize strategic opportunities, and foster long-term resilience in their energy strategies.
