background

In the context of global cooperation on climate protection, the Chinese government is actively promoting carbon peak 2030 and carbon neutral 2060. The “dual carbon” strategy will have a profound impact on China’s economic and social development. Enterprises in related industries face major challenges in transformation and upgrading, especially those with high carbon emissions such as energy and power, industrial manufacturing and transportation. They must control their carbon footprint through more sophisticated and intelligent digital management methods to realize gradual decarbonization in all links of the industrial chain.

In order to facilitate the early realization of “carbon neutrality” and the reshaping of competitiveness of relevant enterprises, SAP and EMQ have reached a cooperation. The two sides will use their respective technological advantages in smart enterprise transformation and Internet of Things data access to jointly build a digital platform for carbon emissions facing the whole industrial chain. With the help of digitalization and Internet of Things technology, it helps enterprises to monitor and manage energy consumption emissions, industrial transformation and upgrading, and digital transformation of new energy industry, and provides digital solutions for industrial energy conservation and emission reduction, clean energy production for scenic power generation, and Internet of new energy vehicles.

The solution connects to the SAP BTP platform Event Mesh through the rule engine of THE EMQ X IIoT suite, and transmits carbon-neutral data to the SAP BTP platform for analysis.

EMQ X IIoT kit

The EMQ X IIoT kit is a basic kit for access and streaming data preprocessing of the Industrial Internet of Things. The kit includes EMQ X Neuron with multi-protocol and full-network device access capability, EMQ X Enterprise with ten million concurrent connections and one million data throughput, etc. It can rely on the powerful rule engine to transmit data to various data platforms to achieve one-stop data extraction, screening, conversion and processing, and perfect integration with other platforms. In addition, the cluster mode can be flexibly expanded. Enterprises can expand the access scale without customers’ awareness as services grow, and expand the upper limit of services by adding cluster nodes. EMQ X IIoT suite integrates flexibly with SAP BTP platform for data transfer, providing reliable carbon peak/carbon neutral source data.

SAP BTP platform

SAP BTP is a platform for building an intelligent enterprise that enables customers to integrate and extend all SAP and third party applications, turning data into value, driving agility, business value and continuous innovation. SAP BTP covers all of SAP’s technology portfolio, such as SAP HANA (in-memory computing platform), SAP Analytics Cloud, SAP Integration Suite and SAP Extension Suite. The SAP BTP platform can convert energy consumption data collected by EMQ into valuable business results, and better provide favorable data adjustment support for carbon peak/carbon neutrality.

SAP & EMQ carbon neutral integrated solution

In the carbon neutral integration solution, EMQ provides the real-time acquisition and access of industrial energy consumption data, manufacturing process data, emission data and new energy production data. The access data are filtered, processed and calculated according to business needs through flexible rule engine. Through high-speed real-time data bridge, Further distribute valuable data to corresponding consumer components through SAP Event Mesh, for example, convert data into carbon neutral analysis data through SAP Analytics Cloud or SAP HANA Cloud. So as to provide enterprises and regulatory authorities from manufacturing to carbon emissions, carbon footprint analysis one-stop service.

After collecting data through EMQ X IIoT suite, we can quickly launch carbon peak/carbon neutral smart solution by utilizing the data storage, data processing and report presentation capabilities of SAP BTP platform.

SAP account permissions, SAP BTP, Event Mesh, SAC, USE of EMQ rule engine and other concepts and key points can be seen in official documents:

  • Introduction to SAP account permissions

  • Introduction to SAP Event Mesh

  • SAC is introduced

  • EMQ rules engine


1. Enable the Cloud Foundry environment to act as a running container for the service and create a Space

2. Subscribe to the Event Mesh service and create an instance of the Event Mesh service in the Space

3. Create a Service Key, Queue, and generate a Token based on the Service Key to connect to the EMQ using the Token

4. Configure EMQ X rule engine to output data to SAP Event Mesh. At present, EMQ is connected to SAP Event Mesh through POST API. You can directly add SAP Event Mesh resources for convenience.

5. To view the data in the SAP Event Mesh, use the REST API consumption of the Event Mesh.

6. Energy consumption data stored in SAP HANA Cloud can be displayed for SAP Analytics Cloud, S4/HANA, self-developed App and other application consumption.

future

With the in-depth cooperation between SAP and EMQ, SAP converts data into carbon-neutral value analysis data at the business level by taking advantage of EMQ’s advantages in data access, pre-processing and classified storage in the field of IoT. By analyzing data converted into standard carbon emissions, SAP manages carbon emissions in industries, transportation energy consumption and other fields. Will play a key guiding value to carbon emission control.

As a long-term strategic direction in the future, “double carbon strategy” is not only a global social issue, but also an economic benefit issue. The carbon neutral deeply integrated solution of SAP and EMQ can not only help enterprises complete transformation and upgrading and save costs, but also improve the quality of life and health of all people by driving the green economy, and empower digital, green and intelligent construction technology.

About the SAP

SAP was founded in Germany in 1972 and is a leader in the global business software market. SAP originated from Systems Applications and Products in Data Processing. SAP is both the company name and the software name for its product, enterprise management solutions. SAP is currently the world’s number one ERP software. In addition, the computer term SAP is also short for Stable Abstractions Principle. SAP is the world’s third-largest independent software maker by market capitalisation. It has more than 100,000 customers in more than 120 countries and employs more than 52,000 employees in 50 countries in Europe, the Americas, the Middle East and Asia Pacific.
