A new strategic partnership between
Opto 22 and eSight Energy has allowed the two companies to integrate
their respective offerings, and enabled Opto 22 to expand its portfolio
of energy management software platforms that can communicate with and
present energy data gathered by the OptoEMU Sensor. Facility managers,
building owners, energy managers, and others now have yet another option
for monitoring, gathering, and visualizing their energy consumption in
order to understand usage, pinpoint problems, reduce utility bills, and
minimize energy-related costs.
Developed by Chicago-based eSight Energy, eSight is a web-based energy
management and analysis suite that interfaces with the OptoEMU Sensor
and allows commercial and industrial customers to connect to metering
devices, electrical panels, machines, and equipment. eSight presents
energy consumption data for viewing and analysis from any PC, laptop,
tablet or smart phone over the Internet.
Janie Jefferies-Freer, President of eSight Energy, Inc. commented, "We
are excited to announce our partnership with Opto 22. The collaboration
lets current and future Opto 22 customers easily integrate their OptoEMU
Sensors with eSight's advanced analytic capabilities, which will
provide maximum visibility into energy usage. The combined solution
enables quick and effective identification of anomalies in consumption,
thereby allowing significant energy and cost savings to be made."
Opto 22 and eSight Energy will debut their integrated energy monitoring,
management, and data analysis offering August 24th at the eSight Energy
Annual Summit at Soldier Field in Chicago. This is a free event where
energy professionals working in manufacturing, property management,
education, and consulting gather to share knowledge and ideas for
managing energy and reducing costs. Representatives from Opto 22 and
eSight Energy will demonstrate the OptoEMU Sensor's monitoring
capabilities to show how it uses standard wired and wireless networks to
aggregate and communicate data from industrial systems for real-time
analysis in eSight.
"By combining our expertise and enabling our technology to work with
that of several different energy management software providers,
including eSight Energy, we're able to give engineering and automation
teams multiple ways to gain the visibility and data they need to
establish new energy usage policies and practices that significantly cut
their utility bills," says Opto 22 CEO Mark Engman.
