Energy solution investments that bring a return: adjustable speed drives can be money well spent.
A flat economy puts tremendous pressure on manufacturers to find ways to lower variable costs. Simultaneously, headlines around the world increasingly point to a renewed focus on the need for energy efficiency. Regulators, market conditions, and their own initiatives to lower energy expenses while maintaining productivity put increased pressure on industrial energy users.
Over the next two decades, the U.S. the Department of Energy (DOE) forecasts increases in industrial natural gas and petroleum use of 31% and 25%, respectively. In addition, power density, or kilowatts of energy per square foot, is increasing in both traditional-economy applications (large ...
