Energy Management System in the Electric Power Business
JFE Engineering has developed and operates a system in which electric power generated at renewable energy
power plants built by the company or procured from other companies is provided to retail customers.
The Supply and Demand Operation System automatically creates and provides plans to maximize profit by taking
into account the balance between customers’ electricity demand and supply.
The ESP System minimizes electricity generation and procurement costs in an integrated, multi-site energy
network service that provides electricity and heat (steam and hotwater) to customers’ multiple plant
locations.
The EMS System controls the charging and discharging of electricity to and from a storage battery within the
customer’s plant to offset spikes in usage during peak hours and predicts solar power generation volumes to
optimize charge and discharge plans for storage batteries installed in solar systems.
By maximizing usage of digital technologies, we are refining these systems and linking their operation both
to use energy more efficiently and to strengthen business competitiveness.
We are also building an environment that makes it possible to calculate revenue and expenses from
transaction data collected by the Supply and Demand Operation System and to confirm on a dashboard daily
revenue and expenses at the retail electricity business.
Displaying this data on large monitors in the head office will raise awareness of profitability among all
employees and maximize business performance.
