Voltage management technology can cut carbon and reduce costs
when applied to sites with well suited load types and where voltage
levels can be easily reduced. However prospective
customers should understand the limitations as well as any
potential benefits before investing in this
technology.
We have consulted with voltage management suppliers, electrical
equipment manufacturers, trade bodies and electrical industry
experts to produce an introduction to voltage management technology
and techniques.
The guide provides an impartial view on voltage management
technology, the concepts behind calculating savings and guidance on
where it can be applied.
The guide provides insight into:
- The theory of saving energy by reducing voltage.
- The concepts of voltage dependent and voltage independent
loads.
- Voltage management techniques.
- Evaluating site potential for voltage management.
- Calculation of possible energy savings.
