关于客户
Geneva Airport is a world-class international airport located in Geneva, Switzerland. It is the second-largest airport in the country and serves 15 million passengers every year. Despite having only one runway, the airport is expected to handle over 25 million passengers by 2030. Geneva Airport prides itself on providing an enjoyable, efficient travel experience for its visitors. Amidst extensive expansion, it has preserved its responsive and efficient quality of service, bringing it to a larger, international passenger base. To accommodate its growing demand, Geneva Airport has been upgrading its infrastructure and renovating its terminals, cargo holds, and hangers.
挑战
Geneva Airport, the second-largest airport in Switzerland, has been experiencing an influx of passengers, necessitating its expansion. With only one runway, it serves 15 million passengers annually, a number expected to rise to over 25 million by 2030. This increase in traffic makes it essential to preserve the quality of the passenger experience at the airport. To accommodate its growing demand, Geneva Airport has been upgrading its infrastructure and renovating its terminals, cargo holds, and hangers. Alongside, the airport is improving its electrical distribution system. However, electrical renovation can create disruption, which can be critical in an airport as it not only creates delays for passengers but also impacts cargo and emergency operations where downtime is not an option.
解决方案
In 2011, Geneva Airport began its exclusive MEGA project (Modernization Electrical Geneva Airport) together with Schneider Electric. This began with a complete renovation and installation of a new medium voltage system from transformers to distribution equipment to monitoring software. The project also introduced low voltage cabinets throughout the site, which enabled airport staff to centralize all of their information and create accurate energy reports. Expansion can be expensive, and cost efficiency was also a top priority for the Geneva Airport team. Their goal was to improve the efficiency and safety of the airport’s on-site electrical distribution system, so they took the opportunity to also upgrade their control panels. Schneider Electric provided innovative and cost-effective solutions that ensure well executed, high-tech renovation, improving technology and passenger experience at the Geneva Airport without impacting day-to-day operations.

Case Study
Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.
Case Study
IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Digitize Railway with Deutsche Bahn
To reduce maintenance costs and delay-causing failures for Deutsche Bahn. They need manual measurements by a position measurement system based on custom-made MEMS sensor clusters, which allow autonomous and continuous monitoring with wireless data transmission and long battery. They were looking for data pre-processing solution in the sensor and machine learning algorithms in the cloud so as to detect critical wear.
Case Study
Cold Chain Transportation and Refrigerated Fleet Management System
1) Create a digital connected transportation solution to retrofit cold chain trailers with real-time tracking and controls. 2) Prevent multi-million dollar losses due to theft or spoilage. 3) Deliver a digital chain-of-custody solution for door to door load monitoring and security. 4) Provide a trusted multi-fleet solution in a single application with granular data and access controls.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.

3M Gains Real-Time Insight with Cloud Solution
The company has a long track record of innovative technology solutions. For example, 3M helps its customers optimize parking operations by automating fee collection and other processes. To improve support for this rapidly expanding segment, 3M needed to automate its own data collection and reporting. The company had recently purchased the assets of parking, tolling, and automatic license plate reader businesses, and required better insight into these acquisitions. Chad Reed, Global Business Manager for 3M Parking Systems, says, “With thousands of installations across the world, we couldn’t keep track of our software and hardware deployments, which made it difficult to understand our market penetration.” 3M wanted a tracking application that sales staff could use to get real-time information about the type and location of 3M products in parking lots and garages. So that it could be used on-site with potential customers, the solution would have to provide access to data anytime, anywhere, and from an array of mobile devices. Jason Fox, Mobile Application Architect at 3M, upped the ante by volunteering to deliver the new app in one weekend. For Fox and his team, these requirements meant turning to the cloud instead of an on-premises datacenter. “My first thought was to go directly to the cloud because we needed to provide access not only to our salespeople, but to resellers who didn’t have access to our internal network,” says Fox. “The cloud just seemed like a logical choice.”
