关于客户
亚利桑那电力合作社 (Arizona Electric Power Cooperative Inc.) 是一家主要电力供应商,通过六个 A 级成员配电合作社为亚利桑那州、加利福尼亚州和新墨西哥州超过 147,000 米的电表和 350,000 名合作社成员提供服务。它是全国 68 个发电和输电合作社之一,拥有并经营阿帕奇发电站。该合作社管理支持其发电资产和西南输电合作社系统的所有工程图纸。它维护着数万张图纸,其工程记录库包含约 50,000 条记录。
挑战
亚利桑那电力合作社在管理支持其发电资产和西南输电合作社系统的工程图纸方面面临着重大挑战。对这些图纸进行更改的过程是广泛且手动的,通常需要数月才能将其合并到系统中。这种延迟导致了版本控制问题,因为工程师无法确定合作社 SharePoint 上的绘图是否是最新版本。该合作社维护着数以万计的图纸,对图纸的更改意味着缓慢的手动更改订单过程。该合作社的工程记录库包含约 50,000 条记录,包括版本化、最终确定的文档、参考材料和非合并文档。现有系统无法有效管理这些未合并文档的版本控制。
解决方案
该合作社将 Nintex 平台集成到其流程中,以解决版本控制挑战。该平台使合作社能够立即向工程师提供标记后的图纸,从而消除了最终图纸更改长达数月的等待时间。 Nintex 平台的高级工作流功能将工作流的开发从 IT 活动转移到业务活动。该合作社利用 Nintex 开发了一个流程,工程师可以在图纸上标记更改并以电子方式发送。工作流程会自动启动,提醒管理员和将要进行更新的设计人员。标记的图纸发布在在线记录库中,以便工程师可以立即了解它们。记录管理员现在花在索引这些记录上的时间显着减少。

IoT Solutions for Smart City | Internet of Things Case Study
There were several challenges faced: It is challenging to build an appliance that can withstand a wide range of voltage fluctuations from as low at 90v to as high as 320v. Since the device would be installed in remote locations, its resilience was of paramount importance. The device would have to deal with poor network coverage and have the ability to store and re-transmit data if networks were not available, which is often the case in rural India. The device could store up to 30 days of data.

Automation of the Oguz-Gabala-Baku water pipeline, Azerbaijan
The Oguz-Gabala-Baku water pipeline project dates back to plans from the 1970’s. Baku’s growth was historically driven by the booming oil industry and required the import of drinking water from outside of the city. Before the construction of the pipeline, some 60 percent of the city’s households received water for only a few hours daily. After completion of the project, 75 percent of the two million Baku residents are now served around the clock with potable water, based on World Health Organization (WHO) standards. The 262-kilometer pipeline requires no pumping station, but uses the altitude differences between the Caucasian mountains and the capital to supply 432,000 m³/d to the Ceyranbatan water reservoir. To the people of Baku, the pipeline is “the most important project not only in 2010, but of the last 20 years.”

GPRS Mobile Network for Smart Metering
Around the world, the electricity supply industry is turning to ‘smart’ meters to lower costs, reduce emissions and improve the management of customer supplies. Smart meters collect detailed consumption information and using this feedback consumers can better understand their energy usage which in turn enables them to modify their consumption to save money and help to cut carbon emissions. A smart meter can be defined in many ways, but generally includes an element of two-way communication between the household meter and the utility provider to efficiently collect detailed energy usage data. Some implementations include consumer feedback beyond the energy bill to include online web data, SMS text messages or an information display in consumers’ premises. Providing a cost-effective, reliable communications mechanism is one of the most challenging aspects of a smart meter implementation. In New Zealand, the utilities have embraced smart metering and designed cost effective ways for it to be implemented. The New Zealand government has encouraged such a move to smart metering by ensuring the energy legislation is consistent with the delivery of benefits to the consumer while allowing innovation in this area. On the ground, AMS is a leader in the deployment of smart metering and associated services. Several of New Zealand’s energy retailers were looking for smart metering services for their residential and small business customers which will eventually account for over 500,000 meters when the multi-year national deployment program is concluded. To respond to these requirements, AMS needed to put together a solution that included data communications between each meter and the central data collection point and the solution proposed by Vodafone satisfied that requirement.

NB-IoT connected smart meters to improve gas metering in Shenzhen
Shenzhen Gas has a large fleet of existing gas meters, which are installed in a variety of hard to reach locations, such as indoors and underground, meaning that existing communications networks have struggled to maintain connectivity with all meters. The meter success rate is low, data transmissions are so far unstable and power consumption is too high. Against this background, Shenzhen Gas, China Telecom, Huawei, and Goldcard have jointly trialed NB-IoT gas meters to try and solve some of the challenges that the industry faces with today’s smart gas meters.

British Gas Modernizes its Operations with Innovative Smart Metering Deployment
The UK government has mandated that smart meters are rolled out as standard across Great Britain by end of 2020, and this roll-out is estimated to create £14 billion in net benefits to the UK in consumer energy savings and lower energy generation demand, according to the Oxford Economics report, “The Value of Smart Metering to Great Britain.” While smart-metering systems have been deployed in many countries, the roll-out in Great Britain is unique because it is led by energy retailers, who have responsibility for the Electricity and Gas meters. The decision to have a retailer-led roll out was made by DECC (Department of Energy and Climate Change) to improve customer experience and drive consumer benefits. It has also led to some unique system-level requirements to support the unique local regulatory model.
