Abstract
As the most energy-intensive machines on the planet, induction motors are the subject of an ongoing study to increase their effectiveness. In this respect, new energy-efficient motors (NEEMs) are being developed. For increasing energy conservation, motors with efficiencies considerably higher than traditional standard motors (TSMs) and energy-efficient motors (EEMs) have been suggested. NEEMs have the potential to save a significant quantity of energy as well as operating costs. A comparative study is conducted in this paper to show how much energy and cost can be saved if TSMs in various industries in Pakistan are replaced with NEEMs, as well as their payback period. A data sample of 23 motors of different ratings has been collected in this pilot study and 90 percent confidence limits are calculated using a t-distribution. The energy conservation benefits of the NEEMs are found encouraging
