Tereos

Dalkia Analytics by METRON for Lillebonne energy management

Tereos reported about 5% less steam consumption after introducing AI energy monitoring

WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Lillebonne's teams reviewed energy indicators in spreadsheets and investigated deviations after they occurred. Corrective action sometimes came too late because engineers lacked timely operating context.

Approach

Tereos introduced Dalkia Analytics by METRON to model reference energy consumption and detect deviations during production. Plant specialists worked with energy experts and data scientists to configure the models. Operators received control screens and reviewed performance daily.

Results

~5%reduction in steam consumption over 1 year reported in Tereos's joint presentation with Dalkia and METRONCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The models connected unusual consumption with operating conditions that staff could investigate. One detected problem involved excess steam consumption caused by a bypassed heat exchanger.
