ABB Ability™ OPTIMAX Energy Management for Industrial and Commercial Businesses
- connect energy generating assets at one site to optimize power consumption
- reduce energy costs by 5-10%
- minimize site CO2 emissions
- more easily comply with regulatory reporting and other legal requirements.
New revenue streams can also be created through trading and demand response schemes. For multiple sites, assets can be connected through a virtual power plant for broader control. Companies can also minimize operations during peak load times and reduce the need for grid purchases. Also, more renewables can be integrated to minimize the use of costly CO2-emitting fossil fuels without risking reliability or grid stability.
There is also an option to increase revenues by participating in energy markets and demand response schemes.

Our engagements have been in mature markets that must find ways to address new challenges associated with:
- Monitoring and control of operational energy use
- Emission monitory and regulatory reporting
- Wholesale market development
- Increased renewables
- Distributed energy resources
ABB prioritizes software quality as part of our “evolution-without-obsolescence” framework. We were early adopters of international cyber security standards.
