In the current situation, where sustainability has become a strategic pillar for industrial operations, energy efficiency stands out as a crucial element. This relevance is due, in part, to its proven ability to significantly reduce operating costs — in some cases, up to 40% of the production budget. The integration of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) practices further emphasizes the need for sustainable and efficient approaches.
Asset Monitoring and Management: A Prerequisite
To achieve operational and energy efficiency, continuous monitoring of equipment is essential. This involves adopting predictive and reliability-focused maintenance techniques, making use of technologies such as sensors and analytics to anticipate failures before they occur. These practices not only minimize maintenance costs, but also ensure that equipment operates optimally, consuming less energy.
The OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) indicator evaluates the availability, performance and quality of equipment, becoming essential for measuring energy efficiency and maintenance effectiveness. Well-maintained equipment is less prone to failures that can lead to unplanned downtime, resulting in lower energy consumption and reduced operating costs.
Bridgemeter : The IIoT Solution for Energy Efficiency

Power Bus Temperature Control
Controlling the temperature of power buses emerges as a critical aspect for the effectiveness of the energy system within industrial facilities. Operations with power buses at high temperatures are indicative of energy losses that not only affect efficiency, but also increase the risk of operational failures. The adoption of real-time temperature monitoring systems is, therefore, essential to ensure early interventions in energy inefficiency scenarios, such as inadequate electrical connections or overload situations.
Through the implementation of these technologies, it is possible not only to prevent failures due to overheating, but also to promote safer and more efficient operation of power buses. This practice ensures that the operating temperature is maintained within ideal limits, significantly contributing to the optimization of energy consumption and the safety of the installations.
Flexible Architecture and Interoperability
Bridgemeter 's flexibility, compatible with a variety of sensors and systems, enhances energy efficiency. With its flexible architecture, it offers a solution composed of hardware and software that adapts to any type of sensor, PLC and industrial equipment. Compatibility with SCADA/ERP systems and the ability to integrate predictive analyzes reinforce its position as an essential tool for the interoperability of measurement points.
