Smart Cities India – Andreas Binkert, international Sustainability expert, discusses urban design, planning and a vision far beyond architecture

May 13, 2017 by Sameer Pradhan Leave a Comment

As India surges ahead on its Smart City Mission, valuable contributions continue to pour in from around the world. In conversation with ControlTrends India, Andreas Binkert, Sr. Vice President, Nuesch Development, Switzerland, emphasises the Top Down Bottom Up approach for the Private and Public Sector to co-operate for Smart Urban Development. Planning foundations of Smart Cities must consider population densities (High/Medium/Low) as well as Connectivities (flow of people, goods, energy and information. Contrary to popular belief, A Smart City need not be a Sci-Fi HiTech world. Whenever and wherever possible, NoTech or LowTech must be applied for reasons of cost and energy consumption. The sustainable concept is clear and well accepted, but the financial aspect is not yet solved. Highest and best use of local, natural and cultural resources will empower the local community to implement local qualities into the Smart City Concept to receive returns over time from investors.

Watch him talk about SwissProBlinds, a unique Smart Façade for Indian Smart Glass Buildings….

Schneider Electric gives a shout out to BMS System Integrators Pan India through its EcoXpert program.

November 16, 2016 by Sameer Pradhan 1 Comment

Though present in India since 1985, Schneider Electric complemented its core business of electrical distribution and made its impact on the BMS market through strategic business acquisition of Andover Controls, CSI USA, TAC, and a section of Invensys (Satchwell Controls).

Watch Martin Feder, VP – EcoXpert BMS & Datacom Program Management of Schneider Electric, talk to ControlTrends India about the EcoXpert Program, which is a novel initiative by Schneider Electric that encompasses all its major divisions like critical power, distributed power, lighting, BMS and network connectivity to bring out competency and standardised services in System Integrators (SI).

Today investors, consultants and end users have braced System Integrators as opposed to their reluctance 15 years ago. SI’s have better discipline, local presence and relationships. Clients want to have a choice of service providers, which is provided by value that the SI brings in. Records show that SIs have higher percentage of project completion as opposed to OEMs.

The biggest value proposition by Schneider in its offering for BMS market is its “Ease of Use”, whereby the user has an access to information through customisable and easily operable components. Bringing intelligence down to the field level, through IoT devices that are cyber secured has been a key driver in product development.

Panel discussion on “SMART CONNECTED INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS – THE FOUNDATION FOR SMART CITIES”

September 22, 2016 by Sameer Pradhan 1 Comment

panel-disc
Sameer Pradhan, ControlTrends India recently moderated an engaging and riveting panel discussion on “SMART CONNECTED INTELLIGENT BUILDINGS – THE FOUNDATION FOR SMART CITIES”, organised by ISHRAE Ahmedabad Chapter as part of ACREX 2017 Roadshow. The discussion weaved the technology side of Smart Cities with the Smart Connected Intelligent Building systems.

The distinguished panel comprised of Mr. U.D Dharmadhikari, Head Engineering GIFT City, Gujarat, Mr. Prasad Patil Director SECONA, Mr. Ashwin Ijantkar, Director Epsilon Design Consultants, Ashish Khare, Head SI business- India and ME, Wipro Limited and A.Skandaprasad, Customer Marketing leader, Honeywell Automation India Ltd.

Key note speaker Mr. Sudhir Krishna,Chairman, Delhi State Finance Commission and Key member of Smart Cities Council of India gave the gathering his insights about Smart Cities implementation.

In his opening note, Sameer Pradhan said, “The Smart City is not just an abstract vision of urban utopia; it is here, and it is here to stay. The grand promise is that the Internet of Things will help us iron out inefficiencies, using insights generated from Big Data to transform urban life. It promises to improve quality of life and manage the complex systems that make up the city’s infrastructure”.

The panel emphasised that a smart city uses information and communication technology (ICT) to enhance its liveability, workability and sustainability. The smart cities framework captures this relationship between a city’s responsibilities (what it needs to accomplish for citizens) and its enablers (the smart technologies that can make those tasks easier).
It does 3 jobs –collecting, communicating and crunching.

1. Collecting data – from smart devices logically located throughout the city and measures and monitors it. For instance, smart meters that can measure, water and gas usage, smart traffic sensors that report road conditions and congestion. Smart gps gear can pinpoint exact location of city buses or whereabouts of emergency crews. And the smart phones carried by city dwellers are also sensors which collect information about their position and where they cluster at different times of the day.
2. Communicating data – once you have collected a data you need to send it along. Smart cities use wired and wireless communication pathways from fibre optic to cellular to cable. The objective is to have connectivity everywhere, to every person and to every device.
3. Crunching data – after collecting and communicating the data you analyze it for presenting, perfecting and predicting.

If you have read about “Big Data” or “Analytics”, you may already know astonishing things that can be done by crunching large amount of data so that information turns into intelligence helping people and machines to act and make better decisions.

Presenting Information: tells us what is going on right now which also called “situational awareness”. Software monitors the huge flow of incoming data, then summarizes and visualizes it in a way that makes it easy for human operators to understand for example a smart operations centre can monitor all aspects of an emergency situations including the actions and locations of police, fire, ambulances, traffic, downed powelines, closed streets and much more.

Perfecting: operations uses the power of computers to optimize complex systems for example managing supply and demand on electricity networks on synchronized lines to minimize energy usage of an entire high rise to achieve maximum confort and minimum cost.

Predicting: what is perhaps the most exciting part of predicting is “analytics”. Cities such as Singapore already crunch data to predict traffic jams while there is still time to minimize their effects. Cities rio de generio already predict where flooding will occur from a particular storm so emergency crews and evacuation teams know where to go.
.
The discussion took a deeper dive into the technology enablers and came to the topic of intelligent buildings. A range of topics starting from defining smart cities to defining open BMS systems, role of skilling, etc were deliberated in great detail.

The panel unanimously agreed that from a Smart City standpoint, an Intelligent Building must be
– IPcentric and deliver
• True openness
• Interoperability
• Integration
The ability to connect, integrate with multiple and disparate systems as well as over large building portfolios.
• Support edge-to-enterprise architecture
• Cyber secured
Today’s BMS systems are vulnerable to cyber attacks. You will agree that cyber attacks cane be one of the most damaging business disrupters.
• Data and analytics
• IOT

An audience of 150 people left educated and wanting for more..

ControlTrends India thanks Mr. Pankaj Dharkar, National President FSAI, Mr. Sunil Maheshwari, President ISHRAE, Mr. Ashish Rakheja, Chairman ACREX2017, and the entire team of ISHRAE Ahmedabad Chapter for presenting this opportunity to us.

Variable frequency drives push energy bills down by 25% at 5 Star hotel in Dubai

March 22, 2016 by Sameer Pradhan Leave a Comment

Dubai hotel gets 25% energy reduction thanks to Eco HVAC Variable Frequency Drive.

The five star Kempinski Hotel Mall of the Emirates in Dubai is achieving energy savings of up to 25% from its air conditioning system thanks to an installation of Eco variable frequency drives (VFD) from UK based Invertek Drives.

The Optidrive Eco HVAC range is specifically designed for use in HVAC Building Services applications and provides energy savings by varying the fan speed to control the output of air conditioning systems to meet changing demands during operation.

The unique Eco Vector motor control strategy continuously adjusts in real time to provide the most efficient operating conditions for the load, typically reducing energy consumption by 2 – 3% compared to standard AC drives – providing similar long term cost savings of selecting a higher efficiency without requiring changes to the previously installed equipment.

An energy audit commissioned by the hotel’s senior management team following receipt of several high electricity bills proved that this was exactly what the Hotel needed for its HVAC system.

The Kempinski Hotel – Mall of the Emirates, part of the World renowned Kempinski chain, first opened in 2006. The central air conditioning system was built without VFDs and consideration of the potential energy savings that could be achieved. The climate within the hotel was controlled through a Building Management System with all Air Handling Units operating at fixed speed only. Any air flow control was achieved using adjustable dampers only.

With temperatures exceeding 40°C in Dubai during the summer, the air conditioning system plays a vital role in the whole experience offered by the hotel, and the running costs of the system represent a significant proportion of the overall operating costs of the hotel. It was therefore vital for management to find a way to improve the system control and efficiency in order to reduce outlay on electricity.

83 drives, varying from 2.2 Kw to 22 Kw, were installed in 43 AHU panels in various sections of the system. As a luxury visitor destination, it was also vital that the work was completed during unsociable hours so as not to disturb guests.

Due to the space restrictions, dedicated Eco HVAC IP55 drives with built in RFI Filters were proposed. In addition to the advanced energy saving operation, the Eco range offers substantial advantages over other products in the market thanks to features including an in-built sleep mode with auto-boost, resonance avoidance, belt break detection and a number of elements designed to reduce audible noise levels.

The drives were mounted to a wall and fixed adjacent to each other, the side by side mounting allowing installation to be completed with minimum space requirements. Shielded cables were used from the existing panel to connect to the input and output terminals of the drive and back to the panel to ensure a high standard of EMC compliance was maintained. All of the cables were covered by individual cable conduits to ensure proper separation and earthing.

A changeover two way switch was installed at the input of the VFD to isolate power to the drive during bypass and maintenance. This allows the system to operate with fixed speed as originally intended, or with the VFD’s operating, providing an ideal method for the energy saving possible to be easily compared.

The energy savings are so substantial that the hotel should see payback for the outlay of the VFDs, including all installation costs, within 14 months of the installation.

Optidrive Eco drives can be used in a number of HVAC Building Services applications including Stairwell Pressurisation, Fume Extraction and Fire Override and a manual control function can easily be selected if required, allowing manual operation in the event of a control system failure.
