Energy Management
All industries depend on good quality electrical energy that is free from surges, and harmonics. Managing this precious resource helps mitigate unjustified power bills and punitive charges. Typical aims of
energy management include restricting wastage, improving power factor, and keeping peak demand within the sanctioned load.
An increasing use of renewable energy sources like wind or solar power throw new challenges about metering the energy that is consumed or fed back to the utility grid. Hotels, offices, commercial buildings and similar also require close
monitoring of energy consumption. This is a challenge, especially when the utility authority of the building has to monitor electrical meters of a number of tenants on a regular basis. Aims of saving energy, improving productivity,
avoiding breakdowns, and preventing electrical pollution is mandated for all businesses, with stiff penalties for those not complying with the requirements.
