NINKASI adopts the DAT’POWER solution and achieves concrete savings in record time
Discover how DATIVE modernized the energy efficiency of the new NINKASI production plant with a comprehensive system, integrating ERP production data, energy usage instrumentation, and the implementation of smart alerts. A turnkey project that yielded savings from the first months of deployment, while ensuring rigorous tracking of energy performance.
The energy challenge at NINKASI
During the commissioning of its new production plant in Tarare, NINKASI set a clear objective: to improve the energy efficiency of its installations without compromising production quality. In this context, DATIVE’s DAT'Power solution was selected to centralize consumption data and provide real-time tracking of energy performance.
A turnkey solution delivering immediate results
DAT'Power enabled NINKASI to aggregate all energy data via a single interface. This project optimized the consumption of water, gas, and electricity across the various production lines. Within the first few weeks, measurable savings were achieved through the identification of leaks and inefficiencies.
Case study: Fast and measurable success
With the startup of our new production plant in 2023, we wanted to take a significant step forward in improving our energy consumption. Recognizing that you can only improve what you measure, we selected the DAT'Power solution, which allows us to consolidate all our production data, water, gas, electricity consumption, and other utilities used for brewing beer and distilling whisky onto a single portal. The advanced technical support, the expertise of the DATIVE teams, the flexibility of the solution, and the deployment speed enabled us to retrieve a maximum of data already available from our equipment and to strategically install a minimal number of new sensors. The financial impact was immediate, as we were able to use this data to optimize our newly installed utilities, and the highly flexible alert system allows us to respond rapidly to leaks and other performance anomalies inherent to any new production plant.

Multi-system integration: a tailored solution for NINKASI
A key advantage of our project for NINKASI was the ability of DAT'Power to integrate seamlessly with existing systems. We connected industrial PLCs, boiler room supervision systems, and integrated ERP data to centralize all critical energy information. This robust architecture enables NINKASI to track and manage all its energy flows efficiently.

Energy performance indicators (IPE) and smart alerts
With DAT'Power, NINKASI benefits from specific energy performance indicators (IPE) for each activity sector, combined with automated alerts. This system detects and corrects anomalies in real time, optimizing energy consumption and securing savings from the first months of operation.
Technical support and customization
Every project is unique. For NINKASI, we customized DAT'Power to meet their specific operational requirements. This includes sub-metering of consumption by activity (brewery, distillery, etc.) and cost of goods sold (COGS) analysis per energy type and usage. This level of granularity allows NINKASI to optimize its processes while maintaining precise control over costs.
Conclusion: A successful collaboration with concrete results
Through our DAT'Power solution, NINKASI improved its energy efficiency and achieved substantial savings within the first few weeks. This project maps out how a tailored approach and real-time monitoring can transform energy management in industrial plants.
