Facilities Optimization at Ethanol Plant
An ethanol plant was looking for a way to control their electricity and energy charges, better control the efficiency of their pumps and more intelligently monitor their facility systems. A Facilities Optimization solution was recommended to measure and control the plant.
Project Details:
- Installation of a FOS system at the ethanol plant
- Baseline electricity expenses were over $5,000,000 per year
- Sensors monitor energy levels, electricity usage and gas leaks, sending data to central unit
- System intelligently controls and optimizes energy efficiency
- No capex expenses
- System is maintained and monitored on-site and remotely
Results:
- Customer saves over 11 million kWh (over 15%) per year
- Customer reduces its energy needs and intelligently controls their facility services
