STARTER PACKS / INDUSTRY

STEAM AND THERMAL ENERGY OPTIMIZATION

STARTER PACK 

90 DAYS - €7,400

Boiler efficiency and heat distribution.


​


problem

BOILERS ARE TUNED BY HABIT AND HEAT IS LOST SOMEWHERE BETWEEN PRODUCTION AND CONSUMPTION. THE ISSUE IS NOT FIRING THE BOILER, BUT KNOWING WHERE THE THERMAL ENERGY ACTUALLY ENDS UP. 

Common symptoms  

Steam losses are assumed, not proven.
Condensate return is unknown.
Boiler issues are reactive.
Improvements wait for shutdowns.

solution

 We start with one steam loop - boiler, headers, traps, and key consumers, around 30 measurement points - because this gives you 80% of value in 90 days with minimal cost and no risk.
OUR APPROACH

(simple and a bit refreshing)

We trace heat from boiler to consumer and surface where it actually disappears.

We connect it using:

  • ETSI NGSI-LD Smart Data Models.
  • The Data Catalog layer(already part of Vela Context Data Hub).
  • Your existing systems and IT infrastructure.
 No disruption, no platform migration, and no “strategic masterplan alignment committees”.

Once the first dataset is flowing → transparency, dashboards, and real decisions become possible.

Then we expand - only if it’s worth it.
What You Get (IN 90 DAYS)
 
  • Steam network model.
  • Efficiency dashboards.
  • Loss alerts.
  • Heat recovery ROI scenarios.
THIS IS YOUR OPERATIONAL STARTING POINT, NOT A PILOT.

Who This Is For ​


  • Process industries (food, paper, chemical, metal) with significant heat use.
  • Energy managers aiming to reduce fuel and CO₂ intensity.
  • Plant engineers responsible for boiler efficiency and safety.
  • Sustainability officers preparing Green Deal compliance reports.
If that sounds like your FACTORY → we’re aligned already.
