Rockwell Automation has
announced the addition of new
energy intelligence capabilities in
software applications. The new tools
– the FactoryTalk VantagePoint
Energy bundle, FactoryTalk
EnergyMetrix software, and Allen-
Bradley IntelliCENTER Energy
software – help plant and operations
managers view resource
consumption in relation to specific
units, lines and machines, so they
can make more informed energy
decisions.

Energy intelligence is an extension
of the manufacturing intelligence
capability of turning data into
information for informed decision
making, by leveraging power and
energy equipment as data sources.
