1 Introduction
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
Energy efficiency plays an important role in today's world. Using the S7 energy
efficiency monitor (S7 EE-monitor for short), you can record and analyze the
consumption of the media used (compressed air, electrical energy or heating gas)
by your machine with a SIMATIC controller. The S7 EE-monitor calculates the
average power and actual value, the distribution of energy and the requirements of
the media used per produced piece good for each machine state.
This enables you to detect potential for savings and to improve processes. By
saving resources, you can save money and protect the environment.
This application example shows you how to set up the S7 energy efficiency monitor
and display the evaluation on an HMI device.
1.2 Principle of operation

The "EnS_EEm_Calc" block is responsible for recording and calculating state-
related energy data.
The "EnS_EEm_Report" block uses the measured values to generate an efficiency
report for detailed evaluation and documentation.
The "EnS_EEm_ComEnMPRO" block establishes the connection to the central
energy management system SIMATIC Energy Manager PRO and transmits the
status-related energy counters cyclically (1min).
1.2.1 Blocks
The following blocks are provided in the SIMATIC Energy Suite V15 for recording
energy efficiency:
 "EnS_EEm_Calc"
 "Ens_EEm_Report"
The blocks are available in the TIA Portal under "Instructions:"
Figure 1-1 Energy Efficiency Blocks
S7 EE Monitor
Entry ID: 109753230, V2.0, 10/2018 4
1 Introduction
Machine manufacturers can integrate this function into their machines to automate
the generation of the energy and media requirements as an acceptance form in
SIMATIC HMI and Excel.
Note The blocks can be integrated preliminarily into the program without a license.
"EnS_EEm_Calc"
The block records the energy and media requirements for the energetic modes
"off", "standby", "powering up", "operational" and "working".
Functions:
 Record typical power consumption as reference values for the energetic states.
 Record energy and media requirements for each mode.
 Calculate energy performance indicators (EnPI).
The operation as well as the individual functions of the "S7 EE-Monitor" are
explained in chapter 5.
Power ranges:
The block calculates the energy requirement and average power of the respective
mode as well as the total energy requirement for up to eight operating modes. A
maximum of ten measuring points can be configured.

The visualization on the "SIMATIC TP 900 Comfort Panel" is designed for up to
four measuring points, but can be extended as required by copying the
visualization elements.
Note Additional information on the energetic states of a production machine and the
energy performance indicators can be found in chapter 7.
"EnS_EEm_Report"
By request, the "EnS_EEm_Report" block creates a log file with the average power
values as a CSV file. The file is saved on the SIMATIC memory card of the
controller.
You can use the "EnS_EEm_report.xlsx" (Figure 1-2) measurement log to evaluate
the .csv file and create a measurement log that complies with the technical rules of
VDMA 34179.
Note To use the blocks, you need the following license. See chapter 1.3.

1.4 Providing data

In the sample project, the data for the energy efficiency monitor is concentrated in
the "EnS_EEm_OEM" block. This block carries out all further calculations so that
only the inputs of this block must be interconnected.
The following blocks are accessed in the "Ens_EEm_OEM" block:
 "EnS_EEm_Calc"
 "EnS_EEm_Report"
 "EnS_EEm_ComEnMPRO"
As soon as you have interconnected the inputs of the "EnS_EEm_OEM" block, all
blocks are active.

2.1 Hardware setup (example)
The example system consists of various devices that can output and store energy
values. By using an AI Energy Meter 480V, it is possible to measure energy
consumption through distributed I/Os.
This application example makes use of the following process tags:
Table 2-1
No. Process tag Medium
1. Electrical Energy (EM 480V) electrical (W)

2. Compressed Air air (m³)
3. CoolingWater liquid (m³)
4. SpeedAxis electrical (W)
(e.g.: SINAMICS G120D)
Figure 2-1 Example process tags
CoolingWater
ElectricalEnergy CompressedAir
SpeedAxis
In this example, the system has a total of 4 process tags. The measured data of
the process tags 2-4 is provided in form of a data block. In this application
example, the data is collected in the data block "EnS_EEm_OEM".
The individual process tags are assigned random values for demonstration
purposes.
The consumption of used media should be evaluated and the energy efficiency
displayed. A 9-inch "SIMATIC Comfort Panel" is used for the visualization.
In a "SIMATIC S7 CPU 1512", the "S7 EE-Monitor" will collect the required data
and transfer it to the SIMATIC Panel. Energy efficiency is displayed via the "S7 EE-
Monitor" visualization.
This chapter describes how you have to parameterize the controller in order to
commission and configure the "S7 EE-monitor".

6 Energy efficiency reports

The "S7 EE-monitor" offers you the option of collecting the energy efficiency data
through the "Ens_EEm_Report" block and saving it as a CSV file on the "SIMATIC
memory card".
This CSV file contains machine information and data from the last reference and
load measurement.
In Microsoft Excel, you can generate an efficiency log from this CSV file by using
the following template:
Figure 6-1 Energy efficiency log
6.1 Requirements
Engineering of the PLC
In the control program, the "EnS_EEm_Report" block must be accessed and
interconnected in a cyclic OB (100ms).
Note The block is contained in the data block "EnS_EEm_OEM".

The block on the line-side, has the same parameters as the "EnS_EEm_Calc" block.
S7 EE Monitor
Entry ID: 109753230, V2.0, 10/2018 38
Mode of operation of the block

If there is a rising signal edge at the "request" input, the block writes the energy
efficiency data to the "data log" on the SIMATIC memory card.
You can now copy the corresponding CSV file from the "SIMATIC memory card".
This is required for the subsequent steps.

5. The data is imported and is now available in the "csvData" spreadsheet.
6. The log is automatically supplied with the saved data from the "csvData" Excel
spreadsheet.
Note If you use the Excel template without macro function, you must perform the
aforementioned functions yourself and add the data from the CSV file to the
"csvData" spreadsheet, starting from cell "A1".
Result:
The first spreadsheet shows the content of the data read.
The table extends automatically depending on the imported data record. The report
can now be printed or saved.
6.4 Notes on using the Excel template

On the first spreadsheet, you should only make changes to the gray boxes.
If you change other values from the log, they will not be updated any more.

7 Useful information
7.1 Energy efficiency factor
The EnPI (energy performance indicator) factor indicates the energy required to
produce a particular product.
Example: Tool creation

Energy, in the form of water, gas and electricity, are required for production. An
EnPI value can be calculated for each medium.
Table 7-1
Medium Consumption Quantity EnPI
Electricity [kWh] 17500 kWh 15000 1.17 kWh / unit
Water 49500 l 15000 3.30 l / unit
[l]
Gas 850 m³ 15000 0.06 m³ / unit
m³
The "S7-Energy Efficiency monitor" calculates and displays EnPI factors

graphically so that the values can be used to estimate the required energy and
evaluate the quality of production.

By calculating a reference value for the EnPI factors, it is possible to measure the
current EnPI factors from the reference values.
Note The recalculation of the EnPI values is only performed when the piece count is
changed.
7.2 Energetic states of a production machine:

The VDMA 34179 technical rule defines the following energetic states for
production machines.
 Off
The machine is switched off
 Standby
Machine is in a "Standby mode"
for example. via PROFIenergy (SIOS entry ID 109478388)
 Powering Up
The energy needed by the machine to return to its ready state from
Off/Standby.
 Operational
Machinery is ready for operation
 Working
Machine is producing
S7 EE Monitor
Entry ID: 109753230, V2.0, 10/2018 42
The technical rule also specifies which energy and media values have to be
recorded and what has to be observed during the measurements.
7.3 Energy efficiency analysis in the Energy Manager PRO

The Energy Manager Pro is also provided for the analysis of energy data. The
Energy Manager Pro offers extensive functions:
 Analysis of the individual machines
 machine comparisons
 line cost center
 reporting
For comparison the advantages of the S7 EE monitor:

 local visualization
 acceptance report
 data preparation
7.3.1 Display of the data in the machine dashboard
