Digital Twins in Port Logistics: Energy Efficiency – A Practical Example

Port operators face the challenge of making logistics processes more energy-efficient. Using a Ukrainian port as an example, compacer demonstrates how a digital twin minimises peak loads during the modernisation of container gantry cranes. The technological foundation is provided by the edbic data integration platform, which visualises and analyses consumption data transparently.

Read the case study to find out how this targeted energy optimisation reduces the strain on the electricity grid, cuts operating costs and enables future-proof port logistics.

Real-time data from machines and sensors

With direct access to PLC data and telemetry via OPC UA or MQTT (JSON), edbic creates a seamless connection between the operational field level and your IT infrastructure.

Browsing, reading and subscribing to data streams in real time enables precise monitoring of crane systems, conveyor technology and autonomous logistics systems. This deep integration forms the foundation for responsive control processes and predictive maintenance.

By transforming machine data directly into usable intelligence, you ensure cross-system control and sustainably increase the efficiency of your logistics chain.

Retrofit: Digital intelligence for your existing systems

Modernizing existing infrastructure is the most economical lever for digital transformation. Through targeted retrofitting, existing analogue systems in ports and logistics centers - such as older crane systems or conveyor technology - can also be digitized without costly replacement.

edbic enables register data to be read directly and makes previously isolated machines visible to modern IT systems. This cross-system process transparency forms the basis for predictive maintenance and optimized energy efficiency.

This extends the life cycle of your systems and gives you full control over your entire operational infrastructure.
