Abstract

Purpose: The purpose is to conduct basic research to save energy and improve the safety of manufacturing plant infrastructure by comprehensively monitoring energy management, temperature, humidity, dust and gas, air quality, and machine operation status in small and medium-sized manufacturing plants. Method: To this end, energy-related data and environmental information were collected in real time through digital power meters and IoT sensors, and research was conducted to disseminate and respond to situations for energy saving through monitoring and analysis based on the collected information. Result: We presented an application plan that takes into account energy management, cost reduction, and safety improvement, which are key indicators of ESG management activities. Conclusion: This study utilized various sensor devices and related devices in a smart factory as a practical case study in a company. Based on the information collected through research, a basic system for energy saving and safety improvement was presented.
