Uncover Hidden Costs: How Power & Energy Logging Drove Efficiency at a Large Industrial Complex

At MPE Staffordshire, we understand the unique challenges faced by large industrial complexes when it comes to energy consumption. Optimising your electrical system for efficiency can significantly reduce costs and improve your bottom line. That’s where power and energy logging equipment comes in – a powerful tool to unlock valuable insights into your facility’s energy usage.

What is Power & Energy Logging?

Power and energy loggers are sophisticated instruments that continuously monitor and record electrical parameters at key points in your system. This data provides a clear picture of your energy consumption patterns, allowing you to identify areas for improvement.

Load Study Success Story: A Large Industrial Complex

Recently, we had the pleasure of working with a large industrial complex to conduct a comprehensive load study using power and energy logging equipment. Here’s how it unfolded:

  • Strategic Placement: Our team strategically placed loggers at critical points, starting from the incoming supply at the private transformer and cascading down to localised distribution boards feeding individual sections.
  • Data Collection: The loggers continuously recorded vital data like voltage, current, power factor, and energy consumption over a pre-determined period.
  • Detailed Analysis: Our MPE Staffordshire team meticulously analysed the collected data to identify peak demand periods, pinpoint areas of excessive energy usage, and assess the overall health of the electrical system.

Benefits Realised: A Transformation

By conducting a detailed load study with power and energy logging, the industrial complex gained a multitude of benefits:

  • Cost Savings: By identifying areas of energy waste and implementing targeted solutions, the complex achieved significant reductions in electricity bills.
  • Improved Efficiency: Optimisation of equipment operation and the distribution network ensured smooth power flow and minimised losses.
  • Capacity Planning: Understanding peak demand patterns allowed the complex to make informed decisions about future upgrades or expansion.
  • Preventive Maintenance: Identification of potential electrical issues before escalation prevented costly downtime or equipment failures.

Unlocking Efficiency for Your Business

The success story above demonstrates the power of power and energy logging in optimising energy usage in large industrial complexes. At MPE Staffordshire, we have the expertise and equipment to conduct a similar comprehensive load study for your facility. We’ll not only provide detailed data but also translate it into actionable insights to improve your energy efficiency.
