Automated management of power, gas, and media resources

SIMATIC WinCC Unified ResCon is an integrated load management system for resources such as electricity, gas, or media. The solution monitors contractual power limits, calculates trends, and automatically controls consumers, generators, and storage systems to avoid load peaks. ResCon enables efficiency monitoring, analysis, and reporting, which allows for transparency, cost reduction, and sustainable production.

Collaboration in distributed configurations

The Collaboration option allows users to efficiently link HMI Unified Comfort Panels and PC-based WinCC Unified stations in TIA Portal for collaboration of screens, alarms, and key performance indicators (KPIs). Collaboration helps identify optimization potential by configuring KPIs and operands of linked stations at runtime and by evaluating messages from WinCC Unified stations in message control at runtime.
