Contributing by Monitoring Energy Efficiency to the Development of Optimization Measures to Improve Energy Performance in an Industrial Platform

Abstract

Greenhouse gas emissions and climate change are currently major international problems. This makes it important to increase energy efficiency. The implementation of energy efficiency improvement measures has reduced energy demand for industrial platforms, so that energy plans designed before these measures are no longer appropriate for current tasks (extensions are not considered at this time). I intended to give a clear image and a better understanding of the factories’ power consumption (the industrial area in question is located near a city). A power plant-specific power system is quite disruptive, as can be seen from the monitored data at the power plant users and from the general power supply voltage bars (110 kV, 20 kV) as well as from the voltage bars of the adjacent users. Based on real-time measurements and monitoring devices, the following characteristic curves have been extracted for local energy systems. That is because data analysis is easy to be used for monitoring energy efficiency and elaborating optimization measures to improve power performance.
