The importance of SCADA systems in the automotive industry for reducing the impact on climate change

The automotive industry plays key role in global gas emission, contributing to the greenhouse effect. This paper explores the importance of SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) in optimizing industrial processes within automotive manufacturing and engine management. By real-time monitoring, optimization, control of industrial processes and data collection, SCADA contribute to reduce energy consumption and emissions of harmful pollutants such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen oxides. This paper analyzes technical architecture, specific applications in diesel engine control, and environmental benefits that are supported by relevant case studies and empirical data. SCADA systems may offer considerable advantages, but there are also challenges such as cybersecurity vulnerabilities, integration complexity and implementation costs that are also discussed.
