How Much Could You Save with a Compressed Air Energy Audit?
So for many of our customers, compressed air is a critical utility. It’s used in mining, manufacturing, across agriculture, health, many other industries used compressed air. Compressed air is used a lot more than you might think, in fact, approximately 15% of all electricity generation goes to compressing air. Compressed air is highly energy intensive with over 90% of the electrical input energy going to waste heat. This means, only 10% is going to actual generating compressed air – only 10%. Additionally, compressed air systems are often poorly set up, have poor maintenance and are controlled ineffectively which adds to the inefficiencies and finally only 50% of the air is typically used for productive activities. So there are huge opportunities to save energy if you can take a closer look at your compressed air system. Fortunately, there is a way to professionally review and audit your compressed air system. CAPS Australia has developed a fully proprietary auditing package to give a full view of your compressed air system. The system is non-invasive, low cost, simple to install, yet gives a powerful view of your compressed air system.
At CAPS, so far, we have undertaken more than 500 compressed air audits across Australia and those audits represent millions of dollars in potential savings for our customers. Typically, we expect to find savings of around 15% but often we find savings of even more than 50%, with sure paybacks often under 3 years. Recently, we were able to generate some excellent outcomes for some of our customers. They were able to save 20% on their electricity cost, 30% on maintenance, they were able to improve their air quality and also get a more stable air pressure which meant more reliable end users application. If you think we may be able to help you to save some cost, please contact someone at CAPS to book an audit of your system.
