New showcase at Energy fair

This will be the focus of Digital Energy, a special display area at Hannover Messe's Energy trade show that deals with the optimisation of industrial energy efficiency. Digital Energy puts the spotlight on industrial energy management – the capture, visualisation and analysis of energy data in conjunction with production data. Energy management systems open the way for increased energy efficiency, lower operating costs and, ultimately, enhanced competitiveness.

Benjamin Low, Deutsche Messe's director in charge of the Energy show at Hannover Messe, says: "The new display area gives all companies, but especially those with energy-intensive operations, the opportunity to learn about ISO standards and energy audits."

In terms of visitors, Digital Energy is aimed at operators of industrial plants and buildings, plant and mechanical engineering specialists, technical facility managers and electricians.
