See-UtiSave : Save Energy in Electrical Utilities

See-UtiSave Powerpoint Demo Download

Welcome to See-UtiSave (Save Electricity in Utilities: Motors, Transformers, Power Factor Improvement, Compressors, Pumps, DG sets, Industrial Fans, Refrigeration & Air Conditioning, Cooling Tower and Lighting; maintain history card and monitor energy consumption versus production at SEB/Feeder/DB level).

Due to rising electricity tariff, increase in percentage of energy cost in total production cost and cut-throat competition; it has become imperative for energy intensive manufacturing/processing units to optimize energy consumption. It has been observed that the utilities take major share of energy consumption in many industries. Now, to improve energy efficiency, there are many options. Techno-economic feasibility of these options has to be worked out before implementation. See-UtiSave is knowledge based IT solution to achieve this goal. It helps to identify & quantify energy wastage and facilitates selection & implementation of energy saving measures in electrical utilities.

See-UtiSave is developed by the consultants already working in the field, carrying out Energy Audit and implementing energy saving measures. See-UtiSave helps to understand the energy interactions, effects of various design & operating parameters on efficiency and quantify energy losses in transformers, power factor improvement, motors, compressors & cooling tower. It is highly interactive, user friendly and provides required knowledge base in the Help. The user can customize See-UtiSave by incorporating his plant particulars. It also serves as log-sheet for various records keeping. The analysis result can be printed in form of a report.

Now See-UtiSave also includes 200 tips for initiating & guiding efforts for energy conservation, equipment history card for maintenance, case studies, energy efficient equipment/retrofitting vendors and monitoring energy conservation measures (ECM) implementation & training modules.
