Against the backdrop of a slight excess of mortality, revenues in the Funeral Services and Cemeteries division increased by 3%. Operating profit (EBIT) of EUR 665.4m was recorded in Peter Weinelt the 2020 reporting period, following EUR 348.6m in the Deputy Chief Executive Officer previous year. The operating profit includes increased revenue, positive one-off effects in personnel expenses, and effects from asset valuation. Improvements in expens- es were also recorded for the Energy and Energy Grids divisions. At EUR 283.4m, the resulting profit for the year, adjusted for special effects, was up on the prior-year value by 15%. With investments in property, plant and equipment and intangible assets amounting to EUR 647.6m, we again used a very high proportion of our funds last year to strengthen our future and performance capabilities. The central themes were digitalisation, innovation and climate protection. 72% of our investments in property, plant and equipment went into climate-friendly projects. In addi- tion, we took over a share package of more than 28% in EVN AG from the German EnBW Trust e. V. last August, following approval by the competition authorities. For us, this financial investment is an attractive investment in the rock-solid business of an Austrian company and a sensible addition to our portfolio. 3 Wiener Stadtwerke / Financial Report 2020 Group operating and financial review Financial Year 2020 4 Foreword / Group operating and financial review / Consolidated financial statements / Information 6 1 OPERATING ACTIVITIES 9 2 CORPORATE STRATEGY 10 3 LEGAL AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT 17 4 BUSINESS DEVELOPMENTS, AND FINANCIAL AND NON-FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE INDICATORS 30 5 EMPLOYEES 33 6 SUSTAINABILITY AND THE ENVIRONMENT 37 7 RESEARCH AND INNOVATION 40 8 INTERNAL CONTROL AND RISK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM 44 9 OUTLOOK Standards and guidelines All data and bases of calculation in this operating review are in accordance with interna- tional accounting standards (the International Financial Reporting Standards, IFRS).

  • Integrating Iot Devices and Deep Learning for Renewable Energy in Big Data System
    U.P.B. Sci. Bull., Series C , Vol. 82, Iss. 3, 2020 ISSN 2286-3540 INTEGRATING IOT DEVICES AND DEEP LEARNING FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY IN BIG DATA SYSTEM Med Anouar NAOUI1, Brahim LEJDEL2, Mouloud AYAD3 Renewable energy use has increased rapidly in recent years. As a result, it has attracted many researchers and industries to provide safe and sustainable energy to customers. However, the high use of renewable energy has caused many problems in its forecasts. To provide energy forecasts, data was collected from wind turbines or solar panels. Several approaches have been proposed for renewable energy forecasting, but they do not take into account Big data characteristics. These approaches focus only on data analysis and are limited. This paper proposes an ideal architecture that integrates IoT technology, Big Data system and Deep Learning paradigm for energy forecasting. The proposed architecture is divided into four layers: renewable energy layer, Big Data layer, IoT layer and Deep Learning layer. Renewable energy data are Big, thus a Big data layer is proposed for the storage and processing of renewable energy data. Then, the Deep Learning layer is used to predict renewable energy. A distributed LSTM algorithm is implemented and compared with three different models to illustrate the predictability and optimization of execution time in the proposed system. Finally, IoT technology is used to facilitate the acquisition of weather, wind or solar data. Keywords: Deep learning, Big data, Internet of things, Distributed long short term memory. 1. Introduction The use of renewable energy resources is increasing rapidly worldwide. In 2017, renewable energy consummation represented up to 17% of total global energy consumption.
