Energy appraisals deliver big savings
for motor users
Specifying high efficiency motors for new applications makes
sound economic sense: the energy savings provide short
payback times. Big savings can also be achieved by replacing
older motors in existing applications: after their short payback
time, the motors will continue to deliver savings over their
entire lifetime.
Major refineries and other large-scale plants have thousands
of motors in operation. Which motors should be replaced
first? ABB can perform energy appraisals, assessing the
motors in operation at a site and drawing up a plan for the
replacement of less efficient units. Created in direct response
to customer requests, the service delivers a motor upgrade
roadmap for the specific site.
Our team visits the site and the team members apply
their experience and technical know-how to select the
most cost-effective solution. We begin by focusing on
certain sections of the plant, or on large pumps or fans,
in order to identify the biggest potential savings in the
shortest time.
