Publication number: 20240095755Abstract: A hybrid method for green intelligent manufacturing (GiM) combines the carbon reduction and the energy saving into the intelligent manufacturing based Industry 4.1 cloud platform. GiM assists companies to achieve the goal of net zero transition and help them advance to Industry 4.2 as soon as possible by simultaneously taking carbon footprint and energy issues into account. GiM collects large volumes of essential data (including carbon footprint) via cyber physical agents (CPAs), and sends them to two critical services of carbon management and intelligent energy management system (iEMS) deployed on the cloud platform. The two critical services optimize the energy dispatch schedule by strictly following the requirements of energy saving, carbon reduction, and net zero. Then, the state of zero defects of intelligent manufacturing achieved in Industry 4.1 can be upgraded to net zero of GiM in Industry 4.2.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 1, 2022Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Hao TIENG, Fan-Tien CHENG, Ting-Chia OU, Tsung-Han TSAI, Yu-Yong LI
