IoT cloud infrastructure and service application for energy storage systems

In the course of digitalisation, HOPPECKE is looking at the possibilities of data collection through IoT and the resulting opportunities. Data is to be collected on batteries from the three product lines Motive Power, Reserve Power and Special Power and centralised in a cloud-based platform.

Company-wide IoT platform

The solution created not only serves a single area, but also serves as a central IoT platform for the various products of the individual business units.

Digital services used internally and externally

The development of new, holistic services: Based on the data collection now made possible by the platform, new digital services were created for internal use, but also for individual customer groups.

Large volumes of data

Individual data analyses require the availability of very high-frequency data with a sampling rate of 200 ms in some cases. This results in extensive data per connected device, which is processed in a data lake.

• Connection of all energy storage systems for continuous data acquisition
• Development of a data infrastructure for evaluations and analyses
• Implementation of applications for the service and end customers

• Central IoT platform for the various product areas
• Dynamic device structures for customised projects
• High-resolution data acquisition including concept for managing mass data

• IoT platform as the basis
• Implementation of the target architecture on Microsoft Azure
• Data storage based on the Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2

• Joint design of the overall solution (technical and functional)
• Agile implementation of the cloud development
• Operation and further development of the IoT cloud solution
