A reduction of energy costs and increase of efficiency is needed by Alcon.
To ensure transparency of the energy consumption and the energy costs, Alcon decided to partner up with Siemens, signing a long-term Energy Analytics Service Contract. Energy Analytics helps to increasing energy efficiency and therefore to reduce costs.
Energy Analytics is implemented as a managed service. Siemens takes over the responsibility for storing and analyzing the data. The results of the data analysis are summed up in reports fitted to Alcon's needs. Siemens assisted Alcon in analyzing its facilities and assets. Based on this analysis, meaningful key performance indicators (KPIs) were defined.
The solution helps Alcon to comply with legal regulations (e.g. CO2 emissions) and industry standards.
Moreover, Alcon was able to optimize the production plant even further only a few months after implementing Energy Analytics and now they are on target to achieve their energy efficiency goals.
The fact that Alcon Puurs submitted this project for the Novartis HSE and Business Continuity Award 2014 is another positive sign for the successful cooperation with Siemens.
The pharmaceutical company Alcon manufactures ophthalmologic products. The production processes require an aseptic environment. To maintain such an environment, the used cleanrooms need energy intensive systems such as water treatments, HVAC, and steam pressure sterilization.
