Energy Study
An energy study that ends in a decision
For industrial plants, logistics and commercial sites and data centres with high electricity consumption: we measure, analyse and design the solution, and show what it is worth.
Process
Five steps
Data request
Bills, interval data, supply contract, single-line diagrams and production information.
Site visit and measurement
Power-quality analysers on the main supply and critical loads for a representative period.
Analysis
Load profile, demand peaks, tariff and contract, power quality, grid headroom and losses.
Solution design
BESS + PCS + local EMS, power-factor correction, solar and flexibility, sized and priced.
Business case and roadmap
Savings, revenues, CAPEX, payback and the options to own or contract the solution.
Power quality
What poor power quality costs
Reactive power penalties, overheated transformers, tripped drives and stopped lines rarely appear as one item on the bill. The study puts a figure on them.
- Reactive power and power factor
- Harmonic distortion from drives and rectifiers
- Voltage sags, swells and interruptions
- Flicker and unbalance
- Effect on equipment life and production
Business model
What the solution can monetise
The business case adds up every source of value the solution creates, so the investment is judged on its full return and not only on the electricity bill.
- Energy savings and a lower bill: peaks, demand charges, reactive-power penalties
- Energy savings certificates, where the market offers them
- CO₂ reduction and decarbonisation targets
- Grants, incentives and public aid
- Flexibility and capacity revenues for storage
- Avoided downtime from better power quality
Deliverables
What you receive
- Energy study report
- Measurement campaign data and findings
- Solution design and equipment specification
- Business case with sensitivities
- Implementation roadmap
The report separates measured data from estimates and assumptions, and may conclude that an investment is not justified.
After the study, we can develop and integrate the solution with the manufacturer and follow it through commissioning, EMS management and energy reporting.
