Harnessing the Power of Data: Top 5 Monitoring Use Cases

As the digital world evolves, the amount of data generated and collected has skyrocketed. For many businesses, particularly in sectors dealing with industrial assets, handling this data efficiently and securely can lead to a significant competitive advantage.

Harnessing the Power of Data: Top 5 Monitoring Use Cases

At Helin, we leverage our revolutionary SaaS product, the Helin Platform, to manage edge devices on assets, enhancing efficiency, safety, and sustainability. We unlock the full potential of industrial assets such as solar panels, cranes, vessels, and rigs, enabling our clients to save billions in the marine and energy sectors and accelerating the energy transition.

If you're contemplating the worth of capturing sensor data, pondering why competitors are monitoring their live operations, or wondering what financial markets expect from you in terms of ESG improvements, you've come to the right place.

We highlight the top 5 use cases for monitoring that business leaders frequently mention to us:

  1. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) monitoring: This refers to monitoring emissions and fuels. By understanding your operation’s current behaviours and habits, you can implement a fuel and emissions reduction strategy, improving your bottom line and meeting regulatory demands.
  2. Operational excellence monitoring: This involves improving operational efficiency. Defining what operational excellence means for your operation and striving towards it necessitates data.
  3. Remote support monitoring: This is critical for the internal organization. When a technical issue occurs, remote support monitoring allows quick and inexpensive expert support, saving downtime and expenses.
  4. Compliance monitoring: This involves ensuring adherence to client, government, and insurers’ demands. Live data collection and monitoring can satisfy these demands efficiently and transparently.
  5. Condition monitoring: This refers to monitoring the health of your systems to reduce unplanned downtime. Condition monitoring and predictive maintenance help optimize your operation, leading to considerable savings in time, money, and productivity improvements.

Data doesn’t have to be the bottleneck to your innovation, growth, or goals if it’s set up and maintained in the right way. The Helin Platform helps remove this bottleneck.

Most of the problems the renewable energy market face right now boil down to imbalances in the grid that result in a volatile spot market with negative renewable energy prices. This leads businesses in renewable energy to face negative returns on their power generation. The good news: you can prevent this, but it will require sub-second calculations “on” your assets, i.e. at the edge, instead of relying solely on cloud computing.
