Presentation on Energy Efficiency and Conservation Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Efficiency And Conservation • In broad sense, Energy Efficiency means economising on the use of energy without adversely affecting economic growth and development. It includes improving the efficiency of energy extraction, Transmission And Distribution and increasing the productivity of energy use. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Efficiency And Conservation (contd..) It is not merely a technological issue but it encompasses much broader economic and management issues. The cost effective of energy conservation/efficiency measures is well established as one unit of energy saved at the consumer end avoids nearly 2.5 to 3 times of capacity augmentation due to plant load factor, plant availability, auxiliary power consumption. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Conservation (contd.) The energy intensity per unit Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is much higher in India(3.7 times from Japan, 1.5 times from USA) than many of the countries of the world leading to high wastage of energy, power shortage and uncompetitive product pricing hindering international trading. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Conservation and its importance 60% of resources consumed so far 85% of raw energy comes from non-renewable sources and hence not available for future generation Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Conservation (contd.) To meet the growing demand, it has been assessed that additional generating capacity of 1 lakh MW has to be added by 2012 requiring an investment of Rs. 8,00,000 crore approximately. It is estimated that high energy saving potential in the country approximately to the tune of about 23% exists for the economy as a whole while in the electricity sector alone the energy saving potential is around 25000MW of installed capacity. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Conservation (contd.) • So Energy Efficiency/Conservation and Demand Side Management measures can reduce power demand and prune building up of additional generating capacity to the extent it can be conserved. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Why Energy Efficiency (EE) ? Negawatts win over Megawatts Economic perspective (National and/or Supplier) : • EE (or Negawatts) are cheaper than Megawatts • EE provides maximum system wide benefits • EE reduces need for imports & scare resources • EE mitigates risk from supply vulnerabilities Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Why Energy Efficiency (EE) ? Contd.. Customer Perspective : • Utilities come closer to customers, better control • Supply quality and reliability improvements • Lowers impact of tariff rationalisation / increase Societal Perspective : • Environmental benefits (emissions and wastes) Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Sector wise Energy Consumption Energy Management Cell, WBSEB

Energy Saving in Fan • Fans are used extensively in summer months. Use of high efficiency fan motor and use of electronic regulator (in place of conventional resistance regulator) can lead to about 20% saving in energy. The fans with aerodynamic designs and improved impellers consume about 20% less energy but are 30% costlier as compared to conventional fans. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Refrigerator • The efficiency of refrigerators in India, is rather poor. A typical 165 ltr. Indian refrigerator consumes about 540 KWHper year. Whereas on the other hand the 200 ltr. Korean model consumes about 240 KWH per year. High efficiency refrigerator are not manufactured in India. This refrigerators use a different compressor design which are very sensitive to voltage of electric supply. Unless quality of electric supply is improved this refrigerators can not be improved in India. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • The electric Motors form the heart of the industries, out of the total motors in operation 98% is Induction Motors.Induction Motors consumes 70% of the total Electrical Energy generated. • Capacity of :: MotorsαTorque α V2 Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors Causes for Energy Loss in Induction Motors The Various causes of Energy Loss in Induction Motors are due to the following factors: • Over sized Motors • Rewound Motors • Improper Voltage • Less Efficient Motor – Driven Equipment • Idle Run Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors Over sized Induction Motor • Sizing of Motors plays a vital Role in Energy Efficiency. It is very difficult to choose a right size of Motor in a single step application. • In any industry while designing the capacity of motor for a particular application involves two/three stages. Over sizing of motor is very common in typical industry Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors Over sized Induction Motor (contd.) The major reasons for over sizing of motors may be due to ::: • Starting torque requirements • Excess cushion & safety factors • Adhoc decisions Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Rewound Motors • Rewound Induction Motors are common in Indian Industries. Especially, in Textiles, Paper industries and Un-organised sectors such as small Flour mills, Lathe shop and Agricultural farms. Induction Motors are used even after more than four times rewound Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Rewound Motors (contd.) • Reason for loss in efficiency Rewound Motors ::: • Eddy Current loss – eddy current loss is proportional to the square of the thickness of the lamination • At the time motor coil burning the temperature of the winding rises more than 400oC, this temperature will evaporate the burnish insulation between lamination of both rotor and stator this results in increase of eddy current loss Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Presence of carbon: the stator and rotor core is made up of thin stamping (0.28mm to 0.45mm). The stamping are insulated from each other by varnish insulation coating, which consists of hydrocarbon. Therefore while motor coil burns varnish also burns and evaporates. The resulting deposition of some unburned carbon between the stampings which deteriorates the magnetic property and hence the magnetic loss increases. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Further the presence of carbon results in early magnetic saturation and reduces the flux density of the stator and rotor cores for the same magnetisation current. Usually, the Wrought iron, and Cast iron have early magnetic saturation and poor magnetic property because of the high carbon content compared to Steel. Thus in rewound motor magnetic loss increases. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Improper Voltage • The performance of any induction motor will be good, when the voltage/frequency ratio should be maintained constant. If a 380 Volt 50 Hz designed induction motor operated with 415V, 50Hz will lead to excess magnetisation loss. This will be the case in many of the important motor designed for other frequency and voltage than Indian frequency & voltage. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Case Study ::In a White Cement Plant • The DG set is imported from Czechoslovakia as a package of entire system. The cooling system pump & motor are the part of the system. In Czechoslovakia, the motors are designed for 380 volts, 50 Hz supply. But the cooling tower pump motor(22KW) is operated with 415Volts, 50Hz supply, leading to excess magnetization losses and excess temperature rise and one of the motor has already burned out due to insulation failure. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Case Study :: • Observations : Surface temperature measured :- • 80 % loaded 415V rated motor: 50 – 60oC • 80% loaded 380V rated motor : 72 – 76oC • Estimated saving potential : 8 – 10% • Recommendation: • The existing 380V, 50Hz motor in the cooling water pump (4 nos.) was replaced with 415V, 50Hz energy efficient motor which has the annual savings of Rs. 84000/- Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Less Efficient Motor – Driven Equipment • Earlier for variable speed, welding application etc., Motor Generator sets are used. This is the Energy Inefficient practice. This offers a good scope to reduce energy consumption by using the latest technology to meet the requirements • For example the recent method to get accurate variable speed control can be achieved by using Thyristor drives which is the ideal replacement for Ward Leonard drive. Similarly Motor Generator set is used for welding application. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Presently few machines are driven by Ward Leonard drives for better speed control. From Energy Efficiency point of view Ward Leonard drives are inefficient and operating efficiency is only 70 to 80% for full load condition. The power measurements indicated that no load power consumption of the drive varies from 10 to 14%. The modern Thyristor drives with fine speed control is popular in Industry and its efficiency is around 90 to 98%. The no load power consumption is more or less negligible. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Idle Run • In some of the industrial application, the auxiliaries equipment will run even main equipment is switched off. There is a possibility to switch off whenever possible by incorporating controls like interlocks and timer based controllers. This will reduce the idle running time and energy consumption. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Energy Saving in Motors • Case Study : In a Rubber Industry :: • Presently in Preformers, the Hydraulic drives are running continuously. The time study indicates around 5% of the time in a day the preformer hydraulic drive is running idle. There is a scope to reduce energy consumption during Lunch Break, Die Changing, Material Charging & Changing time. The Power Measurement Details are as follows : • Minicrowe Preformer : 18.5 KW • Idle running Power cons: 4.67 KW • Crowe Preformer : 30.0 KW • Idle running Power cons: 7.67 KW • Recommendation: Recommend to interlock between the rubber cutter and hydraulic drive motor to reduce idle running during Lunch Break, Die Changing, Material Charging & Changing time. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
Demand Side Management • The total demand of an area deeps on varying depending on the time of the day and the season. The Load Factor is the ratio of Average Power to Peak Power. A high Load Factor means lower cost of generation. Every electric utility tries to improve the power factor to a value close to 1. Energy Management Cell, WBSEB
