Upon deployment the Viridis solution adapts to the company’s current management model. Over time Viridis promotes a gradual evolution of management practices, helping the company achieve and maintain new levels of efficiency.
Differentiators
Gradually evolve your management model
Multiple energy inputs
Viridis manages all inputs used by clients: electric energy, solid, liquid and gaseous fuels, water, atmospheric gases, and more.
Lower application TCO
Viridis replaces a range of existing standalone applications in the client's IT landscape, reducing the total cost of ownership of IT systems.
Far more than just reports
Viridis incorporates big-data technology to analyze input data and identify improvement opportunities in real time
Cost reduction
Direct reduction expectations of up to 10% or more of the energy & utilities matrix costs.
Fill the gap between automation and corporate systems
Viridis provides close integration with other engineering and information systems used by the company, from automation (PIMS, PLCs, SCADAs, energy meters) to management systems (SAP and other ERPs, MES, and IT systems).
Discover the best energy matrix for your production plan
Ensure you’re executing the most efficient strategy every time a production plan is altered and whenever there is change in supply conditions or availability of energy inputs.
Enhance productivity of energy & utilities management teams
Automate many management routines and consolidate information, saving precious time for energy & utilities management teams. Instead of spending hours in front of spreadsheets cross-checking data and monitoring reports, team members can spend their time where it matters most: in improving the company’s energy efficiency.
From data to information, from information to knowledge
Viridis applies artificial intelligence to create simulations as well as perform optimizations and quantitative analyses, creating new knowledge about energy consumption.
Get to know your real energy costs
Viridis measures and automatically assigns all energy costs to cost centers, ledger accounts, and production orders. Through configurable costing rules, you define criteria by which direct and indirect costs are calculated and allocated.
Risk mitigation
React quickly and precisely to operational incidents. Viridis optimizes the operational continuity of industrial plants and anticipates the best solution to different equipment, leakage, input, or supplier-related problems.
End-to-end energy management
Viridis integrates all phases of the energy and utilities management cycle, providing a comprehensive vision of the entire process of consumption, generation, and emissions monitoring and control.
Pave the way towards ISO 50001
-
ISO 50001 is a specific standard for energy management, based on the continuous improvement management system.
The Viridis energy management solution, developed exclusively for operations that consume large amounts of energy, is a strategic tool to help achieve ISO 50001 standardization and to drastically reduce operational, auditing, and maintenance costs.With more than 300 powerful features, Viridis can implement and operationalize every practice and definition of the ISO 50001 standard, allowing a large number of related actions to be executed automatically and thus further enhancing team productivity.
For each new project, you identify measurement criteria, establish baselines, and perform implementation actions. Viridis then calculates the savings obtained with each initiative and its return on investment, as well as the ROI of the entire portfolio.
Digital Transformation & Industry 4.0
Viridis solutions have been developed to enable clients to fully realize the benefits of digital transformation by deploying state-of-the-art technology with significant measurable impact on their businesses and operations.
The digital transformation phenomenon has been drastically reshaping the way companies in many segments do business today, and this trend will continue as development and adoption of new technologies continues to advance. For industrial companies, digital transformation is often associated with the so-called Smart Industry or Industry 4.0 movement.
IoT (Internet of Things)
Massive interconnectivity technology to provide communications with a wide variety of devices for gathering data from a variety of sources, including time series from meters, contextual information from sites and equipment, energy and utilities contracts and invoices, and for providing integration with legacy systems.
Big Data
Technology to store and process vast quantities of data, used throughout the Viridis platform to create a data lake including a wide variety of different types of data, from which Viridis generates quantitative and qualitative models to manage energy and utilities.
Cloud Computing
Along with traditional local deployments (on-premises), all Viridis products may be commissioned in the cloud (on-demand), providing all benefits from the cloud computing paradigm, including resource elasticity to cope with sporadic demands for analysis, simulations, etc.
Computacional Intelligence
Set of sophisticated technologies comprising machine learning, evolutionary computing, dynamic simulations, and stochastic processes to analyze and generate quantitative energy and utilities management models.
Analytics
Set of technologies and methodologies to analyze data and infer high-level information, used throughout the Viridis platform to create models, indicators, and other types of information that directly support decision-making processes.
Mobility
The Viridis platform can be fully accessed from mobile devices including tablets, smartphones, and data collectors.
DevOps
Set of practices that unify software development and operations processes, extensively used by Viridis to commission its platform from microservice containers in local or cloud environments.
Flexibility
All Viridis products may be commissioned locally or in the cloud. Either way the Viridis IoT Gateway provides real-time, bidirectional data connectivity to multiple sources.
On-demand
Cloud commissioning model based on the Viridis computing environment, hosted at premier cloud service providers and managed by Viridis from its operations center.
On-premises
Traditional commissioning model where the solution is installed locally. Local environments may optionally be managed by Viridis from their operations center.
All Viridis products may be licensed in two models, regardless of how they are commissioned. All products may optionally be complemented by managed services.
Subscription (Opex)
Software licensing by annual subscription.
License (Capex)
Traditional software licensing model based on the acquisition of perpetual licenses.
