The company is committed to continuously improving its overall energy footprint and reducing energy consumption. The energy transition is a pillar of ElvalHalcor's strategy.
Viridis Energy & Sustainability Suite is an integrated solution for energy, resources, and sustainability management, which effectively enhances the operational efficiency of an aluminium plant. Similarly, this will benefit Elval, optimising the plant’s overall production process while reducing carbon emissions.
Elval and SMS share a common vision of sustainable and responsible industrial practices that bring them together. With the installation of two modules of Viridis Energy & Sustainability Suite – Virdis Performance and Virdis Grids, Elval will be able to practice energy-efficient production in the aluminium industry.
Virdis Performance software tool will enable Elval to precisely understand the impact of different production routes, real-time monitoring of consumption deviations, automatic event generation, and online journal for data logging. All this will help Elval take swift corrective actions when needed for performance improvement.

Within the context of the PANDORA project, Halcor aims to implement a trustworthy AIoT system that predicts the energy consumption of the extrusion press under different time scales, including hourly, daily, monthly, and yearly scenarios.
The concept of "trustworthy AI" is critical because it ensures that AI systems are transparent, secure, and ethical. Unlike simple AI, trustworthy AI focuses on developing algorithms and models that are reliable and responsible, taking into account their impacts on society and the environment. This is particularly important for the company as optimizing energy consumption must be done in a way that protects the interests of all stakeholders and ensures the integrity of data and results.
