Energy Conservation
Why do we need to conserve
energy?
 High Cost of Electricity/Fuel
 Environmental Impacts (e.g. Air
Pollution, Global warming)

How do we conserve energy?


 Improve efficiency of energy utilization
Energy Efficiency
 measure of the productivity per unit of energy
consumed
 portion of energy which ends up doing useful work

What is improved Energy Efficiency?

Energy Efficiency uses less energy for same


output and reduces CO2 emissions

Improvement Strategies

Process improvement
Better energy management
Better operational practices
Combination of strategies
Energy Audit

Systematic procedure
Verification, monitoring and analysis
in the use of energy
Includes technical report
– cost benefit analysis and action plans
to reduce energy consumption”
Energy Audit Goals
 clearly identify the types and costs of
energy use;
 understand how that energy is being
used- and possibly wasted;
 identify and analyze alternatives that
could substantially reduce energy
costs; and
 perform an economic analysis on
those alternatives and determine
which ones are cost-effective
Why Energy Audit?
Helps Energy Managers to:
Identify areas for
energy reduction
Prioritize energy
conservation projects
Develop action plans
Track progress
Levels of Energy Audit

Primary audit
or walk-thru

Detailed audit
LEVELS OF ENERGY AUDIT
Primary Audit (Walk Through)
• Establish energy consumption in the
organization
• Estimate the scope for saving
• Identify the most likely (and the
easiest areas for attention)
• Identify immediate (especially no-
/low-cost) improvements/ savings
• Set a ‘reference point’
• Identify areas for more detailed
study/measurement
• uses existing, or easily obtained data
LEVELS OF ENERGY AUDIT
Detailed Audit
• Provides a detailed energy project
implementation plan for a facility, since it
evaluates all major energy using systems.
• Offers the most accurate estimate of energy
savings and cost.
• Considers the interactive effects of all
projects, accounts for the energy use of all
major equipment, and
• Includes detailed energy cost saving
calculations and project cost.
• Arrives at energy balance based on an
inventory of energy using systems,
assumptions of current operating conditions
and calculations of energy use. This
estimated use is then compared to utility bill
charges.

1. Define Objectives:
a. Determine forms of energy used
b. Examine historical energy use and
cost data
c. Establish an accounting and
reporting system
d. Relate energy consumption to
production
e. Identify areas where energy
wastes can occur
f. Set energy conservation goals
g. Identify and analyze energy saving
opportunities
Project Planning
2. Divide Plant into Facilities
Divide Plant into Factors to Consider:
Facilities 1. The cost centers should be the smallest
manageable segments of the plant.
2. There should be only one individual
by process responsible for the performance of a cost
center.
by equipment
3. The number of cost centers should be kept
by divisions within a certain limit so that the paperwork
by departments and coordination problems do not become
insurmountable.

A plant lay out or a


process flow chart
will be very useful.
