Energiency’s aim is to reduce industries’ massive energy consumption (and environmental impact) through data collection and analytics, by fusing big data, cloud computing and the so-called Internet of Things. Real-time data from factory machinery is fed into the system and processed by algorithms. Before founding Energiency, Legrand worked as an industrial energy consultant, delivering analysis of equipment in factories—taking readings, compiling statistics and giving recommendations. The software identifies trends and provides notifications for all the processes within a factory, displayed via the app—or, in the future, the smart glasses. Using Energiency’s technology, Norske Skog is targeting a 3 percent savings in energy, according to Sophie Granju, who manages energy performance.
