Tom Osborn - BPA Results of Spud Onion Shed Efficiency Projects

Discussion Topics What is a Spud Shed? Measurement & Verification Results. Request for approval of kWh savings per HP

Estimating Savings Spreadsheet tool Measure Fan or Pump kW 3 year billing history Load in / out dates

Estimating Savings Vendors using spreadsheet tool Measure Fan or Pump kW 3 year billing history Load in / out dates

Estimating Savings Estimated Energy Savings114,549 Percent Energy Savings18%(range 10-30%) Energy Cost Savings$5, Estimated Project Cost$16,000.00($ /HP) Potential Incentive$9,600.00(may need to adjust formula) Payback w/o incentive (yr)2.8 Payback with incentive (yr)1.1

M&V Savings (results may vary) Monitor 6 months or an entire season. Use utility meter, sub meter, or VFD display data. Monthly records desirable.

43 VFD projects in Spud /Onion Sheds

Why Different Results? Crop Type Load in & Out Dates Tonnage Quality Crop Owner Storage Manager Storage type (w/ refrigeration?) Analysis Quality Drive Failure

Vendor Driven Program -Utilities explained program to vendors and shed operators. -Generally, suppliers of the shed control system market the utility program. e.g. -Suberizer -Custom Chemical -JMC Ventilation -Industrial Ventilation Inc

Results -43 projects or more! Average savings of 32% Average savings 1,255 kWh/HP Average Cost of $282 Average rebate claimed $129

Summary Spud Sheds with VFDs can be run more efficiently! Economics are good. Product quality can improve. Savings can vary, but average savings of 32%. BPA requests approval of savings/HP.
