FLOWBOX co-owner, Tomas Rendla, recently presented our EMOS software at the DigiStage of the National Center of Industry 4.0 at MSV. Energy Management Optimization System (EMOS) is an innovative energy management software that helps industrial companies to better use energy, optimize operations and reduce their carbon footprint. EMOS enables efficient energy management that not only saves costs but also contributes to environmental protection and meeting ESG standards.
What was mentioned in the interview?
- FLOWBOX EMOS allows you to integrate different technologies, systems and data from them, regardless of their manufacturer. The platform integrates not only the technologies that consume energy, but their sources, including alternative ones such as photovoltaic or wind power plants, as well as energy storage technologies. At the same time, the system works with data such as weather forecasts, lighting, production schedules, etc.
- The sensors send data to FLOWBOX, which, based on the information and predictions received, performs autonomous intelligent control and optimises processes to make the most efficient use of energy and reduce consumption.
- EMOS SW also includes advanced data analysis to find inefficiencies and evaluate opportunities for improvement, whether it is energy costs or carbon footprint.
- Practical experience shows that EMOS can routinely enable companies to reduce energy costs by 10-30%, and in some cases even more. We also have a specific case of reducing electricity costs by 50%.
- EMOS is the ideal solution for industrial companies and large buildings where manual, efficient energy management is no longer possible.

What else might be interesting about EMOS for you? How can EMOS help and how is the implementation proceed?
EMOS finds hidden inefficiencies and waste
For many companies, a lack of good data is a barrier to effective energy management. If companies lack energy data or don't have a tool to regularly identify inefficiencies, they may struggle to make the right decisions. The solution to this problem is FLOWBOX Energy Data Intelligence, which provides a unique analytical view of inefficient energy consumption in real time while highlighting their financial and carbon impact. The EMOS platform helps identify inefficiencies not only to discover but also to eliminate them, using advanced energy management optimization tools.
FLOWBOX Energy Data Intelligence objectively identifies areas with the greatest energy losses and offers recommendations for eliminating them. Companies can then use the data to make accurate and quick decisions and target their actions effectively - whether it's adjustments through the EMOS platform or other means.
The importance of EMOS in the era of community energy and energy flexibility
At a time when community energy and energy flexibility are becoming key elements of the modern energy system, the EMOS tool is becoming essential. It enables efficient energy sharing between communities and decentralised resources. With its ability to autonomously manage consumption and assess current needs and available energy sources in real time, EMOS helps to create flexible energy networks that are able to respond to fluctuations in energy consumption and production. This promotes not only sustainability and a reduced carbon footprint, but also energy self-sufficiency and stability within local communities.
How the EMOS SW implementation process works
- Analysis of your organisation's current level of energy management. Identify key areas with potential for improvement and savings. Based on this assessment, next steps are proposed.
- Design of a measurement and deployment of a data intelligence module to help detect inefficiencies and waste and define actions.
- Implementation of EMOS control modules according to selected priorities - commanding technologies according to internal and external parameters.
- Real time measurement and evaluation of given measures, continuous energy management
What about reducing the carbon footprint and meeting ESG criteria?
Reducing carbon footprint and meeting ESG criteria are closely linked to energy management. EMOS optimizes energy consumption and thus reduces the carbon footprint of the company, which directly contributes to the environmental pillar of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance). The platform allows to manage energy consumption and production with respect to the actual carbon footprint, which changes every quarter of an hour within the energy mix. By implementing EMOS and similar solutions, companies gain a tool that not only helps them achieve savings and efficiency, but also enables them to accurately monitor and report emissions reductions - important indicators for meeting ESG targets.

The introduction of EMOS brings companies not only financial savings, but also better sustainable access to energy resources - an important step towards meeting ESG goals.
