Our Method
The approach that we take to gain
electricity efficiency in existing
facilities is to install
power treatment
technologies to the individual loads in a
facility and, where needed,
to install passive or active power quality correction
at either individual loads, individual
branch circuits, or the master service
entrance. The electricity savings from power
treatment technologies originate from these
concepts:

Today, the trend of achieving greater
lighting efficiencies have come in the form
of fluorescent and HID lighting. Though this
lighting is more efficient than incandescent
lighting, it is also true that neither
fluorescent nor HID's are maximally
efficient when connected to standard,
sinusoidal waveform AC power. We have
developed an entire line of special purpose
waveform modification based lighting
controllers that significantly reduce total
energy consumed by these lighting fixtures,
yet can achieve significant operating cost
savings without reducing visible spectrum
light output. Secondly, all of our lighting
controller technologies have been designed
to suppress or trap broadband harmonic
content from the load side of the device,
therefore adding to the systems cascade
effect of both improved overall efficiency
and improved overall facility power quality.

WIRING AND DISTRIBUTION CAPACITY:
The practice of wiring a facility to meet
National Electrical Code (NEC) and then
being confident that the system must operate
at acceptable efficiency is expensively
misguided. The NEC, written by the National
Fire Protection Association (NFPA), designs
electrical systems to be safe from causing
fires. Not a single element of the NEC has
been developed as a standard against which
efficiency can be judged or calculated.
Consequently, due to the failure of
designing a system to be lightly loaded and
cool operating, virtually every
manufacturing plant we have encountered has
been in serious need of remedial efforts to
correct high current and distortion values.
These values contribute to high electrical
costs and higher cost from equipment
replacement, repair, and down time.

We have found that the careful application
of properly sized (by VAR) capacitive
devices in very close proximity to inductive
loads clearly meets the 'two benefit'
standard of generating direct and indirect
savings. While such an approach requires
specifically creating an exactly matched
capacitor network for every single treated
load in a facility, it more than pays for
the effort in quick payback through
consumption savings, savings from reduced
down time and maintenance, and savings from
improved power quality.
|
LINE LOSS AND VOLTAGE DROP:
Real line losses and voltage drops in
commercial and industrial facilities far
exceed the amounts, and effects, determined
by classroom theories. Unlike these
traditional calculation methods, which only
consider isolated loads and circuits, real
voltage drops in real facilities have wide
ranging effects on the voltage and current
values in the entire facility.
