An integrated approach to energy management

Electrical power is expensive, but much can be gained in most systems where energy consumption is concerned: with smart sizing from Festo and energy-efficient components and solutions. Not only will you reduce your CO2 footprint as a result, you relieve the cost pressure as well. And it has been our experience in a variety of industry sectors that this works best when you take a comprehensive approach. We understand the issues and challenges of energy efficiency and our specialists can offer the right products and appropriate support.

Applied research at Festo

Energy-adaptive production technology

Festo is part of the Copernicus SynErgie Project, joining more than 80 partners are researching how energy-intensive industry processes can be coupled to fluctuating power generation from the wind and the sun. The plan is to create a highly dynamic control platform, which helps companies adapt automatically to renewable sources of energy.

Implementing measures for saving energy

Within the context of the EnAP project (energy-efficient actuator technology in production), Festo is developing energy-efficient actuator technologies for production, together with packaging and bottling system manufacturer KHS, woodworking machine builder Homag, and the universities in Dresden (IFD) and Stuttgart (ISYS). The goal is an expert system that provides companies with suitable energy efficiency solutions together with the required components and simple operation.
