TECHNIQUES
OF EMS
 Controlling and Reducing Energy
Consumption at your Organization
 Reduce costs- This is becoming increasingly important as energy costs rise.

 Reduce carbon emissions and the environmental damage that they cause –
as well as the cost-related implications of carbon taxes and the like, your or
organization may be been to reduce its Carbone footprint to promote a green,
sustainable image. Not least because promoting such an image is often good
for the bottom line.

 Reduce risk- the more energy consume, the greater the risk that energy price
increases or supply shortages could seriously affect your profitability, or
even make it impossible for your business/organization to continue. With
energy management you can reduce this risk by reducing your demand for
energy and by controlling it so as to make it more predictable
 HOW BEST TO MANAGE YOUR
ENERGY CONSUMPTION
 1. Metering your energy consumption and collecting the data

 2. Finding and quantifying opportunities to save energy

 3. Targeting the opportunities to save energy

 4. Tracking your progress at saving energy

 Energy Saving Tips
There are some relatively simple techniques that can reduce
your company’s energy consumption, lower costs, and advance
your conservation goals.
 Lighting
 Replace incandescent lighting with compact fluorescent
lighting indoors and outdoors. CFL is almost four times as
efficient as incandescent bulbs and lasts about 12 times longer
 For outdoor lights, use a timer or photocell so they turn off
automatically during the daylight hours
 Take advantage of natural light by placing work areas near
windows
 Install occupancy sensors, so lights go off automatically in
unoccupied rooms
 MOTORS
 When purchasing a new motor choose the most energy efficient
one you can afford, Premium efficiency motor cost about 20 %
more, but can have a relatively short payback to off-set costs.

 Motors are oversized when they power end uses that require less
horsepower than the motor is capable of producing. Select a
lower power motor and operate it a higher load factor near
optimal efficiency to help justify the motor replacement. Motors
operated at low load factors have lower power factor thus
having less efficiency.
COMPRESSED AIR
 You can reduce compressed air costs by analyzing
compressor operation and reducing leaks
 Compressors can be stage with controls to
optimize performance
 HVAC
(HEATING,VENTILATION AND AIRCONDITIONING)
 Reduce your facility's load allowing the existing system to
operate less frequently.
 Implementation of an energy management system can provide
great savings to your HVAC equipment.
 Set ZONES to turn off exhaust fans when not needed and
control the Temp. of spaces at night
 Consider energy recovery ventilation systems to reclaim
waste energy from exhaust and use it to condition the
incoming air.
 REFRIGERATION
Regular maintenance of refrigeration components
such as coils, fans, seals, Etc, will help keep the
system running at its designed efficiency level.
Check temperature settings to ensure they are not
lower than necessary.
Keep refrigeration systems out of areas that have
frequent fluctuations in temperature – areas in direct
sunlight or away from outside doors.
 BOILERS
 Recover heat from steam condensate.
 Improve boiler efficiency, Boilers should be
monitored for flue gas losses, radiation losses,
incomplete combustion , blow down losses, excess air
etc. Proper control can decrease the consumption upto
20%
DIESEL GENERATING SET
 Maintain Diesel Engines regularly
