1 Energy management for small & medium-sized manufacturers Nate Altfeather Industrial Sector Engineering Manager Focus on Energy

2 Topics Starting an energy efficiency program Tips and tricks for finding efficiency opportunities in your organization Focus on Energy for manufacturers

3 Power vs. energy 100,000 BTUh x 1 HOUR = 1 THERM 100,000 BTU/hr 1 HOUR POWERTIMEENERGY

4 1.3 hp = 1kW x 1 HOUR = 1 kWhr 1 kW 1 HOUR POWERTIMEENERGY Power vs. energy

5 Understanding energy kW TIME 17 kW

6 Energy management $ TIME

7 Where to start Understanding your potential –What is your annual energy expense? –Apply assumed potential savings ~10% –What can you do with this? Can I afford to hire a third party? Is it worth my time?

8 Understanding your energy profile EquipmentAvg. Power [BTU/hr or KW] Hrs/yrEnergy Use [therm or kWh] Cost of Energy Boiler1,000,0003,50035,000$28,000 Compressor377,500279,750$22,380 Lights206,000120,000$9,600 Total $/yr$59,980

9 Assess opportunity (in order of priority) 1.Do I even need my existing equipment? 2.Is my existing equipment working properly? 3.Is this the most efficient model/design? 4.What are the economics to upgrade?
