SUSTAINABLE OPERATION

Sustainable operation through excellent energy and resource management

The development of sustainable products is at the center of future-oriented corporate strategies today. As an established engineering solutions provider, the EDAG Group takes responsibility for the project goals of its customers and realizes energy-efficient smart products through innovative technologies and holistic concepts.

With a multidisciplinary team of experts, we focus on CO2 footprint optimization and develop new solutions for existing products. We use modern simulation and modeling technologies to systematically optimize energy efficiency and resource utilization. Our sustainable product design portfolio includes improving energy storage systems such as batteries, as well as designing and implementing resource-efficient distribution infrastructures to balance environmental, economic and social aspects.

A particular focus is on the integration of circular economy principles into product development. The EDAG Group takes the entire product life cycle into account – from the optimal selection of materials and the choice of suitable joining techniques to well-thought-out recycling strategies. This holistic approach not only enables our customers to improve their sustainability performance, but also to create long-term sustainable and efficient value.

Topic overview


Strategic energy management for future-proof smart products

The EDAG Group offers sustainable solutions in the field of smart products through systematic energy and environmental management concepts. Using Quick Life Cycle Assessment (QLCA), your products are analyzed holistically and optimized through digital simulations. The precise energy consumption analysis enables the identification of savings potential and the development of customized optimization strategies for your company.
 

Six steps to sustainable smart products

  1. Potential analysis
    We systematically analyze and record your product interfaces and conduct a comprehensive energy consumption analysis.
  2. Digital modeling
    Using high-precision simulation models, our team of experts develops an integrated energy management system for your product architecture.
  3. System integration
    We implement intelligent sensor networks and control algorithms in the product and in your existing infrastructure for sustainable smart products.
  4. Intelligent energy management
    We optimize the energy consumption of your smart products in real time through the seamless integration of an adaptive energy management system. Our algorithms dynamically adapt to changing operating conditions and ensure maximum energy efficiency over the entire product life cycle.
  5. Data validation
    Our engineering team analyzes the product carbon footprint and optimizes energy efficiency in the early development phases by using digital twins, which accelerates validation processes.
  6. Predictive monitoring
    Predictive monitoring enables continuous optimization of interface performance, for example, using machine learning algorithms.
