Why Conserve?
Product need to be internationally competitive. Cost raises but selling price stagnates. Savings is surest way to increase profits. 10-25% saving can be realized in many industries; half of which with small investment. The nation gains as A new captive power plant take 4 years to construct; while benefits of savings can be enjoyed in 6 months. The power plant costs Rs 50,000/- per kW, while savings costs are not even Rs 10,000/- per kW.

Energy Accounting / Balance Prepare break up of consumption for each form of energy by – Measuring energy consumption of individual equipment. – Noting down operating period. – Take data from various sub-meters
Compare total consumption as estimated above with actual consumption to ascertain – “Unaccounted” or “Miscellaneous” portion of the consumption
Analyze consumption pattern (wrt time)

Energy Consumers / Converters Evaluate performance of major consumers to Carry out energy balance for the entire system. Check if the equipment operates at design capacity. Estimate efficiency at design / operating capacity. Compute specific energy consumption. List the major losses and estimate their contribution. Discuss & finalize ways to eliminate / minimize the losses and optimize the efficiency /output. – Evaluate possibility of enhancing useful output. – Check feasibility of using cheaper source of energy do the same work. – – – – – –
Basic Definitions Efficiency: Ratio of Energy utilized for useful work to the total energy supplied to the equipment. Ratio of to energy supplied less sum of all losses to the total energy supplied to the equipment. Capacity utilization: Ratio of the Actual output to the Rated output of the equipment. Specific energy consumption: Ratio of the total energy supplied to the equipment to the Actual output.

Distribution Systems • Utilities like steam are generated at centralized place &
distributed through out plant. • Such distribution is always associated with drop in energy level. • Distribution losses are such losses expressed as fraction (or percent) of the initial energy. • Such losses can be in in more than one form like pressure drop, heat gain, leakages, etc. • Minimizing such losses is one of the simplest & surest way of conservation of energy.
Example
Distribution Systems Steam
• Insulation • Leakages • Pressure drop – Routing – Line size
• Trapping
– Location – Size – Type
Utilization Systems • Efficient utilization of utilities / energy is of prime
importance. • Conduct energy balance for each form of energy. • Identify critical parameters for utilities. • Validate criticality of process / plant parameters. • Map process / plant requirement with generation for critical parameters. • Quantify waste streams and potential for energy recovery through the same. • Look for more economical source of energy.

Identification of
Energy Saving Areas • Analyze the deviations from norms /
normal values. • Identify reasons. • Work out corrective action. • Discuss with TEAM to formulate Action Plan • Make simple but complete fact sheet for each area. • Categorize areas based on ease of implementation, investment, etc.
Implementation • Pick up low hanging fruits – it goes in a great way
to boost up team moral and management support. • Supervise actual implementation • Provide assistance during commissioning & trouble-shooting.
Monitoring • Ensure that the Team is on the right path • • • •
and at correct pace. Measure the actual savings and ensure realization on sustainable basis. Devise monitoring system for key energy consumers & prepare log / data sheets. Install mechanism for suggestion scheme with effective implementation. Monitor specific energy consumption at macro as well as micro level.
