Electrical energy management in small, and medium size industries

There is a general awareness of the opportunities for reducing the cost of electricity consumption in industry, but the progress in implementation has been slow and stagnant, particularly in the small and medium size industries. Part of the reason for the slow progress is lack of information on methodologies for the electrical energy management in industries. The paper discusses common aspects of electrical energy management in small and medium size industries. It contains the finding and the analysis of the results obtained from the electrical energy audit program which is done in various industries. The analyses are focused on the load management, power factor management, transformers analysis and motor losses management.<<ETX>>
