VisionTEC – Human Machine Interface

VisionTEC is central to our more advanced programs. It is an interactive graphic display application that combines real-time data, historical trending, and site control in a custom windowed environment tailored to the needs of each client.

VisionTEC creates a single comprehensive view of a customer’s site, including every metered building. The interface is used to communicate dispatch signals to operators for changes in operations or for participation in Demand Response initiatives. Detailed screens let clients monitor the market, GHG/CO2 emissions, natural gas and electric fuel breakdown by equipment, hedge usage, weather, and chilled-water flow. Customized engineering reports can be generated easily and all data is real-time.

A number of discrete modules provide impressive insight into operations, efficiencies, and savings tactics.
