3c The Energy Efficiency in Industry.pptx

Why is Energy Efficiency an Issue? Energy Efficiency (EE) - Utilisation of energy in the most cost effective way to carry out an activity or a process whereby waste energy is minimised and overall consumption of primary energy resources reduced.
In essence, same or more with less energy. Drivers of Energy Efficiency:
Rising energy prices
Energy Security
Climate Change
Green Jobs
The myth of energy efficiency in industry are: Energy Efficiency is all about ineffectiveness, reduced productivity and reduced comfort, Too costly especially in during an economic downturn, Savings do not outweigh the cost and the risks are quite significant. Main systems that consume energy in Industry: HVAC systems, Compressed air system, Heating and cooling processes, Electrical system, Lighting
Motors, Boilers, Refrigeration, Drying and Waste Treatment.
Energy Efficiency is not a ONE TIME PROJECT. It is a CONTINUOUS CYCLE. A Continuous Cycle contain of Identify: Perform an Energy Audit of the different processes
Understand the energy flows
Identify the low hanging fruits such as leaks, insulation needs, lighting, Evaluate: Understand the energy savings potential and the cost involved
Allow proper planning of investments and priorities, Realise: Usually, the low hanging fruits are addressed first Some actions don’t even involve any costs and can be implemented immediately, Monitor: Monitoring is needed to ensure that the measures are effective, Use of management and control systems, Energy savings : 2- 8 %. A New Design Mentality is needed. Redesigning an industrial power loop can reduce power use by up to 92%. It could be achieved by twi=o ways i.e. use Bigger Pipes and smaller pumps and Lay the pipes first then the equipments. Financing EE improvements: ESCO. An ESCO allows a client to upgrade its facilities and reduce energy costs by investing future cash flows from energy savings
ESCO’s are not financial institutions
They perform energy audits, design and install the proper technology to reduce energy use and provide a guaranteed level of savings. ESCO’s get reimbursed together with a profit with energy savings made. EE & RE Synergies Twin Pillars of Sustainable energy: the more efficiently energy services are delivered, the faster renewable energy can be deployed
RE technologies are mostly suited for distributed purposes thereby reducing lost in transmission and transport
Efficient Building designs that utilise passive solar heat and light reduce their energy consumption Savings from EE improvements can be used to finance RE sources such as PV. The more you reduce the energy demand of an industry, the easier it is to deploy renewable energy within that industry premises. Concluding Remarks. The tourism industry is embracing EE measures
Long Beach hotel has implemented EE equipments but also a building management system

Similar measures are being taken in the textile industry
Denim Ltd. have purchased new weaving machine and is implementing various energy.

5. Why is Energy Efficiency an Issue? Benefits of Energy Efficiency

6. Why is Energy Efficiency an Issue? Benefits to industries: Energy savings leads to lower costs and thus increased competitiveness Reduce environmental impacts => powerful marketing tool for green industries However !!!!! Barriers to EE implementation : Lack of awareness and perceived risks Conflict of investment priorities Lack of Benchmarking ( Best Practices) Absence of Technologies Regulating pressure

7. The Myths….. Energy Efficiency is all about ineffectiveness, reduced productivity and reduced comfort Too costly especially in during an economic downturn Savings do not outweigh the cost and the risks are quite significant Consider a company with an energy bill of Rs 60 million/year With EE measure bringing a 10% energy reductions, the costs will decrease by Rs 6million. If we are to increase the sales by the same amount, lots of effort in advertising, product design would be needed with much uncertainty…

8. The Myths….. Some facts : Savings are for real….. IBM saved $43 million in 2011 due to EE measures ; $400 million since 1990. IBM is currently the US Greenest company . In June 2012, company’s profit rose by 6% despite fall in revenues. Huge Energy savings Potential Recent study shows that savings up to Rs 1,110 million is possible in Mauritius Some 200 GWh of electricty can be saved Energy savings potential up to 20% achievable in some sectors .

9. The Myths….. IRR of EE Projects over a period of 5 years Source: UNIDO

10. The Usual Suspects Main systems that consume energy in Industry : HVAC systems Compressed air system Heating and cooling processes Electrical system Lighting Motors Boilers Refrigeration Drying Waste Treatment

11. Approaches to Energy Efficiency Passive Energy Efficiency The use of material or devices that use less energy to perform the same function . E.g . Lighting , high energy efficient motors … It is termed passive as once implemented it will save energy without any human involvement Energy savings : 10 – 15 %

12. Approaches to Energy Efficiency The Rebound Effect

13. Approaches to Energy Efficiency

14. Approaches to Energy Efficiency Active Energy Efficiency Intelligent use of energy to achieve the same result with less E.g . Automation and Regulation to ensure optimal functioning of processes Energy savings : 5 – 15 % - Both approaches are needed and complement each other Active Energy Efficiency is needed so as to maximise and sustain the savings obtained from Passive EE actions Starting point is however Employee Awareness and Behavioural change

15. Approaches to Energy Efficiency Energy Efficiency is not a ONE TIME PROJECT . It is a CONTINUOUS CYCLE …… And this is a good thing!!!!! WHY ?

16. A Continuous Cycle Identify Evaluate Realise Monitor

17. A Continuous Cycle Identify Perform an Energy Audit of the different processes Understand the energy flows Identify the low hanging fruits such as leaks , insulation needs , lighting Evaluate Understand the energy savings potential and the cost involved Allow proper planning of investments and priorities Realise Usually , the low hanging fruits are addressed first Some actions don’t even involve any costs and can be implemented immediately Monitor Monitoring is needed to ensure that the measures are effective Use of management and control systems Energy savings : 2- 8 %
