Sample configuration: Capturing Energy consumption
This sample configuration contains five parts:
Part 1: Configure kWh per tonne
Part 2: Configure the Production reporting point items
Part 3: Configure the Energy Consumption reporting point items
Part 4: Configure the Energy Metrics reporting point items
Sample configuration: Capturing Energy Consumption
This topic is a continuation from Sample configuration: Capturing Energy Consumption. The goal is to configure the kWh per tonne metric.
