With so many pressures (economic, social, environmental, etc.) many companies are turning to Energy Management Systems to manage and reduce their energy costs and environmental footprint. Using our industry-leading technology and expertise, we are helping by providing energy management systems.
Energy Management Systems for the Food Manufacturing Industry
1. Energy & Utility Management Information Solutions for the Food Manufacturing Industry Leveraging Information Technology to Create Profitable, Sustainable and Socially Responsible Systems for a Better Tomorrow
7. Price will only increase:Increasing demand from emerging countries Natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina, Gulf of Mexico oil spill, etc. Political instability and Middle East geo-political tensions
8. The Industrial Sectors Contribution Transportation – 27% Industry – 49% (including industrial buildings) Tertiary Building – 8% Residential – 16% Main sources of industrial energy consumption are heating and cooling, motors, lighting and compressed air
9. The 30% Energy Reduction Challenge Reduce your companies energy consumption by 30% over a five year period
10. Meeting the 30% Challenge Short- and long-term energy reduction goals: 10 – 15% energy consumption reduction in the first year 15 – 20% energy cost savings within the first year 30%energy consumption reduction over 5 years Achieving a 30% energy consumption reduction: Achieve 10 – 15% savings by using high efficiency equipment, sizing equipment correctly, upgrading building envelope and insulation Achieve 5 – 15%savings by turning off or idling equipment when not needed, regulating motors and heating at optimal levels Achieve 2 – 8% through a continual measurement & targeting program and immediate reaction to consumption deviations
11. … but keep an eye out for: Common pitfalls of an energy management strategy: Paralysis through analysis – there are many movingparts to an energy management strategy, start smalland constantly review and revise Unplanned or unmanaged shutdowns will adverselyaffect your energy consumption Ensure that your energy management strategy doesnot adversely affect your production throughput orquality Embrace automation – as processing equipment isreplaced or upgraded it should be integrated to your energy management system Keep momentum on the project – it might take a while to gain traction on some measures
12. Possible Energy & Cost Reduction Achieved through high efficiency devices and use optimization 100% 70% Achieved through continual monitoring and deviation corrections Energy Consumption 1 2 3 4 5 Time
13. Environmental Impact Reduce your companies environmental footprint Use this socially responsible commitment to sustainability as a selling point to your customers Reduce greenhouse gas emissions Reduce carbon dioxide emissions by millions ofpounds per year Reduce poisonous chemical emissions Reduce mercury, nitrous oxide and sulfur dioxideemissions by thousands of pounds per year
