GEM™ – Global Energy Management
- Global energy management GEMTM is a global energy predication and control system
- The system monitors short-term future renewable energy production at all member sites, based on the predicted energy generation capacity the system purchases thermal fuel from the open market at the lowest possible price.
- The system intelligence monitors the oil and gas market and purchases fuel for short term needs at the lowest price.
- Economic models build into the system predicates short term oil & gas prices based on current market data.
- The system autonomously starts and operates different generators at the member sites to achieve maximum cost efficiency for the operator
