Availability of power is of prime importance, especially in a heavily populated country like India. The rising cost of power has a major impact on the bottom line of any commercial organization. Airconditioning constitutes nearly 60-65 % of the power consumption in official complexes and this figure rises to 75 % in hotels and hospitals. Apart from this, heat load conditions and usage patterns vary over the years, with wear and tear, resulting in further power consumption. By way of Blue Star's energy audit, you can actually stop your electricity bills from spiraling.
This comprehensive energy audit starts from identifying the consumption and ends only after executing the recommendations that result from the audit. We even audit other energy consuming devices such as lighting, giving you a one-stop solution. What's more, our audits are backed by guaranteed energy savings, and carried out by certified and experienced BEE Auditors.
Our Energy management services also include:
- Variable Frequency Drives (VFD)
There are several kinds of auxiliary equipment which enhance energy saving. Variable Frequency Drives (VFD) is one such important energy saving device which can be used in chillers, air handling units, cooling towers, pumps and other motors. Blue Star has partnered with Danfoss, Denmark, as their Energy Solution Partners.
Based on the fluctuation in the airconditioning demand from the end user, VFD changes the frequency and hence the rpm of the motor thereby saves energy.
- Part load management
Based on the climatic fluctuation on an annual basis and variation in the internal use on account of occupancy, it is essential to understand the quantity of heat used at various stages of climatic fluctuation. This will be instrumental in understanding the part load behaviour of the chiller and planning the airconditioning requirement.
- Air distribution optimization
It is essential to tune the volume of air according to the load at the end user area. This can be achieved through variable air volume (VAV) system or through Variable frequency Drive. Air distribution and air balancing play a critical role in energy savings too, because the airconditioning load is determined by the distribution and balancing of air. Blue Star has developed expertise in the area of air balancing, offering devices such as variable air volume systems to optimize the same.
- Water balancing
In any airconditioning plant condenser water and chilled water are balanced at the time of commissioning only, where there is a strong possibility of disturbances in this, on account of manual intervention. Hence it is essential to balance this chilled water and condenser water on periodical intervals to improve the performance of the chiller.
