Mykolaiv tested the VECTOR SMART DATA telemetry system

On 21 January 2019, in Mykolaiv, a city in the southern part of Ukraine, which is an important port and a centre of the shipyard industry, a conference was held to summarise the results of the pilot implementation of the VECTOR SMART DATA telemetry system. It was an expert meeting attended by the representatives of municipal authorities and the heating industry.

At present, Mykolaiv is at the stage of searching for innovative solutions to improve their heat energy consumption management efficiency. The city, planning to implement a comprehensive remote control and information collection system, opted for the VECTOR SMART DATA telemetry system. The several-week long pilot project included tests of the solution in a small boiler house and four energy consumers.

The conference concluding the completed project was held under the auspices of Deputy Mayor Alexander Omelchuk. The meeting was also attended by representatives of the City Council, the heating company, the City Energy Department and the Centre for Energy Efficiency. One of the key points of the meeting was to present the results of operation of the tested system, as well as to discuss the conclusions.

– We see the difficulties faced both by the consumers and heating networks, and the pilot project showed us how to support the heating company in eliminating problem-generating factors”, said Andriy Slobodyanik, Technical Director of the Heating Network in the city of Mykolaiv. “Based on the test results of the system implemented, we analysed the feasibility and possibility of wide application of such solutions in our networks. The numerous benefits from their implementation include the possibility of eliminating the human error factor and any irregularities in the collection of data from meters

– “We believe that this pilot project will be the beginning of wider cooperation to increase the energy efficiency of Ukrainian heating networks. The implementation of our solution in Mykolaiv, proven on the Polish market, is a continuation of our expansion to foreign markets, including Ukraine”, said Jerzy Kuś, President of the Management Board, VECTOR SMART DATA.
