It doesn’t make any difference whether the company’s core product is a drilling machine or a more complex product, such as the eviShines Energy Management System, which handles energy- og consumption data. The complexity of the product is not important. The end user does not care how it works inside the engine as long as the product solves a given problem.

The holes of a drilling machine is a good example, because people are basically buying holes – not the machine. At eviShine we’re working to identify our holes. We do this, because our vision is to create value for our customers – just like the drilling machine creates value by drilling holes.

Energy Supply have written an article about how we’re working with value creation. Read the article (danish) here.

In our digital world, things change faster than ever before. These changes increases the pressure on companies that have to be able to adapt.

Because of these changes, it might be profitable to stop and consider how transformations affect one’s core business and business area, as well as evaluating on customer needs. Not only here and now, but also a consideration of how tomorrow will look like.

At eviShine we are proud to be among the selected SMEs (small-medium sized enterprises) for this year’s Next Step Challenge in the category ‘Energy Efficient Technologies’. Here eviShine is going through a transformational process, where the focus is our ‘next step’ in terms of business development, value creation and future goals.

Our intention is to be an even better of ourselves by identifying where we create value and where we need to be even better. Our core business remains the same – just in a new and improved version.

We look forward to the journey and the development that lies ahead. Read more about the accelerator program here.

Our system is the only energy-management system that is supplier independent and which can collect data from all market inverter and meters and assemble it into one system. This means that our customers are able to get a comprehensive overview of their energy consumption regardless of whether the company’s departments are located in Denmark or abroad. I feel convinced that the need for management and optimization of energy consumption is increasing, and with our system, customers have the best prerequisites for managing it” says Jan Kannegaard, CEO, eviShine A/S

The system shows whether all meters and inverters produce as they should, and alarms can be set up to immediately let you know if there is overconsumption, lack of production, etc. You also save the time spent on reading the different units around the municipality. All data is extracted from the system and used for budgeting, reporting to the Danish Energy Regulatory Authority (DERA) green accounts, etc. Read more about the benefits that the municipality of Assens has experienced with the eviShine Energy System here.

The eviShine system gives an overview

The municipality of Assens keeps an eye on the energy consumption through the eviShine system. With real-time data, the city can follow the electricity process by its 33 solar panels and the consumption of electricity, water and heat, 24/7.

Torben With Lohmann, energy consultant at Assens municipality states: ”The eviShine system gives a good overview and is simple and easy to handle. We primarily use it to see whether the solar panels and heat pumps work and if there is overconsumption of energy on one of the building. In the long term, we plan to benchmark between the schools and the institutions.”

Consumption is visualized for citizens, students, and employees

The fact that the municipality of Assens has gotten all the solar panels connected to the eviShine system is new; however, some of the schools within the municipality already use the system in class, where the visualization of consumption hangs on big screens on a number of the schools. The Citizens’ Services are also supposed to have the eviShine system so that people within the municipality may follow the consumption and production of green energy.
