What is power management?
-
Reduce energy spend and accomplish energy sustainability goals:
• Understand how energy is consumed throughout the facility and proactively detect abnormal energy usage.
• Use energy normalization tools to monitor energy in the context of production for energy intensity KPI tracking.
• Automatically generate energy performance, carbon reduction, and regulatory compliance reports. -
Maximize power availability and electrical system performance:
• Install power meters to get real-time visibility of power flowing through the facility from mains to final distribution.
• Use relays and breakers to isolate faults, shed non-critical loads and automatically transfer to alternate power sources.
• Track electrical capacity in all circuits to balance circuits, avoid overloads and ensure sufficient backup power availability. -
Minimize the impact of power disturbances and prevent equipment malfunction and damage:
• Power Quality Instruments (PQI) for accurate and reliable power quality monitoring and disturbance capture.
• Specialized diagnostic tools including disturbance direction detection, load loss detection, and incident timeline analysis.
• Power quality correction equipment including active harmonic filters and dynamic voltage restorers. -
Avoid downtime, reduce maintenance costs and extend the life of your equipment:
• Install sensors and smart devices with onboard diagnostics to enable predictive and condition-based maintenance.
• Proactively send alerts if a setting changes, a hot spot develops, or equipment components are wearing out.
• Partner with Digital Service Providers for expert decision support and remote monitoring services. -
Save money by reducing energy spend:
• Monitor facility energy use with revenue grade monitoring at service entrances
• Compare utility bills with internally generated “shadow bills” and check for billing mistakes
• Install capacitor banks to improve power factor and lower electricity bills and avoid paying surcharges
Power digitalization plays a foundational role in active energy management and efficient facility operations. Retrofitting electrical systems with smart devices and using power management software to improve energy efficiency and reduce risk is a great investment with a typical payback of less than two years.
