Description

The AMRC North West are currently developing a project to demonstrate the capability of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and smart technology usage cases to reduce the carbon footprint of a manufacturing site. The project will raise awareness of the latest technology and will be retrofittable to legacy manufacturing facilities. The technology will be able to provide a tangible benefit to the carbon footprint of a manufacturing site through data capture and visualisation and / or machine cognition.

The project will demonstrate how IIoT can be used in a manufacturing environment to understand, influence, and change the key levers in carbon reduction. A range of technologies will be implemented to understand energy usage, occupancy and asset parameters, environmental conditions, utilisation of micro grid technology and visualisation through a user-friendly dashboard. We are aiming to minimise or remove the requirement for fossil fuel dependency in the manufacturing environment. The facility is a demonstrator, and we would therefore like to show the various ways this can be retrofitted to a legacy manufacturing environment.

This tender is seeking to attract bids to supply, install and maintain multiple sources of renewable energy generation. These sources are divided into 4 lots of interest as stated below:

Lot 1 PV Solar
Lot 2 Static Battery Technology
Lot 3 Heat Pump
Lot 4 Innovative solution (this is an alternative renewable technology not covered by lots 1 to 3)

This is a FTS open exercise. The ITT can be downloaded by registering and expressing your interest on the University`s e-tendering system https://in-tendhost.co.uk/sheffield
