Building a Foundation for AI Success Across the Business. How a Plastics Manufacturer Saved Energy and the Planet with AI.


With energy costs rising, a regional plastics producer saw its margins squeezed. Worse, its executives couldn’t identify which processes or shifts were the most wasteful. They wanted to reduce costs—and their environmental footprint—but had no roadmap.



The Challenge: Energy Waste in the Dark

  • No real-time visibility into energy usage by machine or process

  • High utility bills with unclear causes

  • ESG reporting gaps and growing pressure from investors



The Solution: AI-Driven Energy Optimization with ConnXions

ConnXions delivered an Energy & Sustainability Assessment, helping the plant:

  • Collect and analyze real-time energy data from IoT sensors

  • Benchmark usage by shift, line, and department

  • Deploy AI to optimize energy usage dynamically based on workload



The Impact: Smart Energy Use, Clear ROI

  • 18% reduction in total energy costs within 3 months

  • Lower carbon footprint for ESG reporting

  • Informed decisions on equipment upgrades and shift scheduling
