On average these motors account for two thirds of any industrial facility’s total electricity consumption, but several measures can be taken to reduce both that proportion and the total cost of ownership. One way to lower energy costs is to participate in an efficient energy appraisal. http://www.abb.com/cawp/seitp202/1d8c92fef58854d0c1257ad400294a6a.aspx http://www.abb.com/cawp/seitp202/1d8c92fef58854d0c1257ad400294a6a.aspx Fri, 30 Nov 2012 08:46:11 GMT 2012-11-30 - In 2009, ABB performed an energy appraisal for Helsingin Energia's Hanasaari B power plant. ABB's experts assessed the extent to which electric motor replacement and the introduction of frequency converters would cut the plant's electricity consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, and what their payback time would be. http://www.abb.com/cawp/seitp202/68b644c2f7cab906c1257ac600302c09.aspx http://www.abb.com/cawp/seitp202/68b644c2f7cab906c1257ac600302c09.aspx
