Step 1 - Energy Audit / Footprint
1.Perform walk through assessment
2.Look at recent billing history
3.Record main electrical feeders
4.Occupational & industrial site operating detail
5.Equipment - age, type, operation, controls, set points,conditions and who is responsible
6.General inspection of equipment and control systems
7.Evaluate tariff structure & power factor correction
8.Benchmarking & monitoring milestones (to be measured after each major load reduction)
9.Benchmark Sustainability
Step 2 - Industrial Site Tune-up
1.Reduce wastage
2.Evaluate control equipment in terms of scheduling,set points, direct digital control, duty cycling, optimal start/stop, maximum demand control
3.Industrial site lights, security lights and other office equipment.
Step 3 - Energy Efficient Equipment
1.Motor supervision and control
2.Fans and pumps
3.Compressor systems
4.Lighting
5.Variable speed drives
6.Replace motors rather than rewind
7.Upgrade to higher efficiency motors
Step 4 - Other Load Reductions
1.Preventative maintenance
2.Training
- System fundamentals
- Reference material
- Maintenance procedures
- Functions, operational and control sequences
- Warranty information
- Service guidelines
3.Operating and maintenance procedures
Step 5 - Monitor, Verify and Maintain Savings
1.Monitor
2.Verify
3.Maintain savings
