SE wanted to simplify its application infrastructure and help customers such as power providers and manufacturers optimise energy performance using the Schneider Electric EcoStruxure Power Advisor application. To achieve its goal, SE migrated Power Advisor to Microsoft Azure and reconfigured it for multi-tenancy. The results? Simplified scaling, enhanced velocity, lower costs and happier customers – all because the heavy lifting is now offloaded to Azure. At Lexington, SE also deployed AVEVA Insight to visualise inventory data. The cloud-based solution was extremely simple to install and intuitive to use; its templated report formats ensured teams could implement consolidated dashboards within minutes of training. Today, SE’s EcoStruxure solution is key to the site’s digital energy management strategy. It has driven 26 per cent savings in energy spend for North America alone and $6 million in energy savings over the first few years.
