Our energy technologies are designed to work with your current equipment and controls. Integration strategies follow a phased approach that helps safeguard your current investments. New controllers can connect to current field instruments and networks often without the need to replace wiring or cabinets. Operators are able to access new capabilities while maintaining the interfaces with which they’re familiar.  
 
Our systems can unite data from generation, storage and distribution assets into one control layer. This approach aims at reducing silos between systems and offers greater visibility across your entire energy infrastructure.

Energy technologies can help reduce emissions through three pathways:

1. Enhance energy use and reduce waste across operations. Digital controls and analytics may help identify inefficiencies as they occur, addressing energy loss before it can significantly impact costs or emissions.
2. Enable integration of renewable energy sources and battery storage. Facilities may be able to shift consumption to match renewable availability and respond to grid conditions dynamically.
3. Support transition to lower-carbon fuels like hydrogen and renewable fuels, plus carbon capture for industrial facilities. These technologies may help address process emissions from hard-to-abate operations including chemical processing, cement production and industrial heating.

Deployment timelines depend on project scope and facility complexity.

A phased brownfield deployment typically spans 6 to 12 months for a medium-size facility. This includes site assessment, detailed engineering, equipment procurement, installation and commissioning. Advanced migration technologies can reduce timelines compared to traditional approaches.

Plants can often maintain operations throughout deployment. The process uses hot cutover capabilities when continuous production is required. This helps minimize disruption and helps protect revenue during the transition.
