Operations Optimization

Return temperature, temperature reduction, monitoring and digital twin

Operations optimization unlocks efficiency reserves in the running network – above all through lower return and network temperatures. Monitoring and digital twins reveal weak points and allow operating modes to be adjusted on a data basis. This topic area covers return temperature, temperature reduction, monitoring and the digital twin.
