Case Study:
For any company, energy should directly relate to production. Knowing this, we can calculate Specific Energy Consumption (SEC), which is energy consumption per unit of production.
In 2015, we set out to work with Arun Plasto by monitoring their energy consumption for the production of disposable paper cups. We recorded what's the number of output and energy consumption per hour. These details were previously documented manually.
During this process, it was found that the specific energy was significantly high everyday at 5 o'clock in the evening. It was because that the machine kept running without being attended to as the workers leaving the shift were busy getting ready for home. Necessary measures were taken to avoid such reckless spending of energy.
Energyly has now over 1500+ customers spanning across multiple industries such as Manufacturing, Retail, Hospitality etc., and 30% of them are from Plastics Industry who have a turnover from 1 crore upto over 200 Crores.
Most of them use it only as a real-time energy monitoring tool to find out if the machines are working, and track downtime, machine to machine performance.
As an Owner of business, knowing the average price of energy for an industry is really valuable. I can use it to set up the benchmark point for competitions and tenders.
Not only did Energyly prove to be an excellent platform for technical monitoring of energy consumption devices, it also served as a source of learning for the entire factory.
Energyly is the ideal energy savings tool for us. We can implement efficiency measures and then see exactly how much we are saving.
