Case Study: Global Building Material Supplier achieves £219,000 annual energy savings with Centrica Business Solutions' Panoramic Power

A solution to cement savings

Centrica Business Solutions worked with Global Building Material Supplier, a global company operating across 50 countries, to improve visibility into the performance of critical machines across its manufacturing operations. The customer needed a user-friendly solution to replace utility meter equipment and identify performance issues in real time.

Centrica Business Solutions implemented its energy insights solution, Panoramic Power, in a two-phase approach across three sites, including remote quarries, with 60 sensors monitoring pumps, conveyors, and crushers. The data enabled predictive maintenance and revealed inefficiencies, including an overloaded conveyor motor and unnecessary out-of-hours consumption, delivering annual savings of over £219,000 and ROI within a month, with the solution later rolled out to 70 sites globally.
