During the autumn of 2022, an energy management system was tested in three schools in Uppsala.
Skolfastigheter ordered a energy management system from Sicotronic in collaboration with STUNS for Tiunda School, Östra Stenhagenskolan, and Fyrisskolan. The power management system was installed during the autumn 2022.
Examples of how Sicotronic's energy management system affects power usage in school kitchens:
The image shows measurements from Tiunda School (2500 portions) on December 9, 2022, where the Nobel Lunch was prepared using 50% of the power with the help of the power management system from Sicotronic. The red color indicates avoided load.
The kitchen staff does not experience any negative impact on their tasks in the kitchen when using the system from Sicotronic. The kitchen staff describes that they do not notice the power management system handling power peaks that occur.
What is an energy management system?
Sicotronic energy management system The Sicotronic energy management system can be a logical next step towards fully managing the power usage in kitchens and free up capacity in the power grid.
