The Acrel Energy Management System (EMS) is an intelligent platform powered by IoT, cloud computing, and big data technologies. It enables real-time monitoring, detailed analysis, and optimized control of multiple energy types — including electricity, water, gas, and heat — across industrial and building environments.

Designed with a layered distributed architecture, the system ensures a secure and scalable data framework that supports the full lifecycle of energy efficiency management — from metering and visualization to optimization and decision-making.
1.Technical Architecture & Key Capabilities

· Supervisory & Management Layer
Industrial servers and monitoring software deliver system-wide dashboards, alarm handling, and automated reporting.
· Network & Communication Layer
Supports RS485, Ethernet, and 4G connectivity via smart gateways for multi-protocol integration and reliable data acquisition.
· Field Device Layer
High-precision meters, sensors, and submeters perform real-time data collection at equipment and load points.
2.Core Function Modules
1) Real-time Monitoring & Visualization
· Live topology and energy flow diagrams
· Operational status and alarms via SMS / App / voice push

2) Efficiency Analytics
· Sub-item energy breakdown (HVAC, lighting, production lines, etc.)
· Peak-valley tariff analysis and consumption benchmarking
· Carbon emission conversion and ESG-oriented reporting

3)Prepaid Billing & Remote Control
· Supports prepaid meters with online recharge and automated disconnection/reconnection

4)AI-Driven Forecasting
· Load and demand prediction
· Anomaly identification and risk alerts
3.Application Scenarios & Success Cases
1) Public Buildings
· Energy management for transport hubs and sports venues
