Facilities Worldwide are becoming aware of electrical energy efficiency.
This has become critical as it reduces the operating cost of doing business, invariably enhancing the balance sheet and profitability.
More than 18% of the electricity you buy is probably wasted due to the design of your equipment and the way it has been installed.
In addition to the energy wasted by running equipment for longer than necessary.
Electricity is an expensive form of energy and the costs are increasing geometrically. Hence, the need for energy savings and the renewable energy sources.
In future, it may rise even faster.
Motors consume about 64% of industry’s electricity worldwide worth hundreds of billions of dollars annually.
High-efficiency motors, properly selected and installed, saves industries several hundreds of millions of dollars per year.
Imagine this; a motor consumes electricity to the equivalent of its capital cost in just three weeks of continuous use
High efficiency motors save money over the whole of its life span.
Energy losses in cables , using the minimum sized cables as specified in wiring standards or regulations like IET mean greater losses and higher operation temperature.
Larger sized cables saves energy and costs less over the lifetime of the installation – the energy saved is worth many times, the slightly increased cost of larger cables.
We shall in due course, discuss among others,
- Identifying and financially appraising, Electrical energy saving opportunities in your organizations.
- Help you to identify where money can be saved, how to select new, replacement equipment.
- Ensure your installer meets the basic needs and requirements, by best practices rather than minimum requirements.
While approaches like, turning off the lights, resetting the thermostats and using time switches have been covered earlier and important.
We will by examples and case studies clearly demonstrate to you , that the lowest first cost usually approach lead to higher running costs and higher overall costs.
This is what Performance Wiring is all about.
