Honeywell fights greenhouse effects

September 2009 News

Honeywell has introduced Energy Management Solutions, a customisable portfolio of hardware, software and services to help improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

The portfolio features the new Honeywell Energy Dashboard, which gathers information from various instruments and systems and tracks energy consumption against dynamic energy targets. This allows users to understand key energy indicators and how they affect overall energy consumption, enabling targets to be set for reducing energy consumption and GHG emissions, and performance to be measured against objectives.

The solution is aimed at a wide range of energy-intensive process manufacturing facilities ranging from refining to pulp and paper.
