Rising energy prices are leading most companies to consider what machines, equipment, and processes they can use to reduce their consumption. HARDWARIO, using Vodafone and Microsoft technologies, is, therefore, coming to market with a new solution for wireless monitoring of machine consumption based on IoT technologies.
Under the www.energeticky.report program, companies will receive 5 mobile devices for CZK 95,000 to connect to their machines non-invasively and get instant information about their current electricity consumption. Thanks to the use of Vodafone's NB-IoT network and industrial devices from HARDWARIO, there is no need to connect the devices to any local network, and it is also possible to move the device to another machine at any time. The consumption data is then transmitted as a report in the Microsoft Power BI application, which businesses already work with frequently. HARDWARIO devices are already used for consumption monitoring by companies such as ArcelorMittal and TOKOZ. The company plans to deploy the system in dozens of new companies by the end of the year.
"The energy sector is undoubtedly one of the main areas where the Internet of Things is now finding application. We have been working with HARDWARIO in IoT innovation for several years. We like the idea of leveraging the potential of our NB-IoT network and their mobile solution immensely. We are therefore looking forward to helping many companies in the Czech Republic find a way to reduce their electricity consumption effectively."
-- Viktoria Korabelnikova, Head of IoT Sales & Business Development Vodafone
"We have been working successfully with technologies from Vodafone and Microsoft for a long time, for example, also in our www.vyrobni.report program. We take advantage of the availability and technological advantages of Vodafone's NB-IoT network and the general knowledge of Microsoft tools among companies not only in the Czech Republic. That is why we are glad both companies support us in the www. energetically.report activity."
-- Alan Fabik, CEO of HARDWARIO
