Development and Evaluation of an Intelligent Control System for Sustainable and Efficient Energy Management
Authors: , , , ,
Abstract: This paper presents a comprehensive study on the integration of Intelligent Control Systems in the global industrial sector, focusing on enhancing energy management through the synergy of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Machine Learning (ML), and Digital Twin technologies. We elaborate on a novel ICS architecture designed to optimize energy consumption, reduce operational costs, and minimize environmental impacts. Our system leverages SCADA for real-time monitoring and control, ML algorithms for predictive analytics and optimization, and Digital Twin technology for advanced simulation and operational efficiency. The implementation of the system in a mid-scale industrial facility demonstrated significant improvements: a 15% reduction in energy consumption, an 18% decrease in peak energy demand, a 30% reduction in CO2 emissions, and a 15% reduction in operational downtime, with predictive accuracy standing at 90%. These results underline the potential of integrating advanced digital technologies in industrial energy management, offering a scalable model for sustainable and efficient industrial practices. Future work will explore broader applications and the incorporation of emerging technologies to further enhance the system's capabilities and applicability in diverse industrial settings.
