TAC EnergyEdge Control Industry Challenges Related to Energy Optimization Need for additional instrumentation drives up the cost of a control system –Drives up hardware costs Each added sensor or controlled device requires additional labor –Electrical installation –Field Check-out and Commissioning Business decisions are driven by a cost benefit analysis. Added Control System Cost Annual Energy Saved = Acceptable Payback
