  1. Mining Solutions Energy Efficiency Solutions

  2. Challenges to the Mining Industry • Need to increase profits and reduce environmental impact • Important to avoid trimming material, labour and maintenance inputs because they can easily upset the delicate balance between product quality and process reliability • By Improving energy efficiency and reducing energy cost can gain a high-value way to quickly improve your business’s competitiveness

  3. The energy efficiency solution for Mining • Cost-effective PowerLogic technology provides energy intelligence to: • Proactively manage energy cost and usage • Increase energy efficiency • Fully utilize energy assets • Reduce emissions • Improve strategic decisions and energy management best practices • Automate (previously) manual tasks

  4. Enterprisesoftware Operationalsoftware Communications Factoryfloor LV Breakers MV Relays Meters Other Devices The right solutions…… A PowerLogic system supports multiple energy management applications and information sharing at all organisational levels. Energy managers can: • Identify waste • Benchmark their facility • Integrate energy management with business practices Production personnel can: • Monitor and react to real-time power system information • Improve process efficiency • Maintain / improve reliability

  5. The right solutions…. Monitor a single plant or global enterprise through intelligent energy meters linked to PowerLogic software. • Meters offer features and form factors to match any budget • Systems provide unmatched data sharing across platforms and integration with existing equipment such as WAGES meters • Versatile products adapt as your energy management needs change • Flexible communications provide information 24/7 through web and email • Adaptable schedule and event-driven reporting matches your needs • Effortless access to equipment status logs ease maintenance

  6. Cost allocation Use IEC and ANSI compliant PowerLogic metering and advanced software to: • Automatically collect, calculate and report costs for buildings, departments, processes, shifts, lines, or equipment • Compare efficiencies • Determine the true impact of energy prices on production lines • Identify opportunities to better balance consumption • Remove electricity budgeting guesswork, minimize administrative costs and reduce data entry errors

  7. Procurement optimization Use PowerLogic system information to negotiate bulk energy purchases to reduce price volatility and lower energy costs: • Consolidate cost information into easy to understand reports • Track real-time Internet pricing • Start generators or shed loads at cost thresholds automatically • Integrate costs for fuel, • Maintain environmental levies, and interconnection • Participate in spot energy market programs • Compare purchasing options

  8. Power factor correction A PowerLogic system alerts you to adverse trends so you, or your PowerLogic system, can take corrective action to eliminate penalties. Use your PowerLogic system to monitor power factor and control: • Capacitor banks • Load tap changers • Filter banks

  9. Measurement and verification Realize maximum long term payback with a PowerLogic system and assure your energy efficiency investments are sustainable and adjustable. • Benchmark against departments, processes and industry KPIs • Forecast results to compare different benefit scenarios • Document results so you can verify efficiency program financial benefits • Baseline performance-based energy service contract results • Validate utility bills, document errors and identify false penalty charges • Minimize the negative effects energy efficiency initiatives may pose to people or productivity

  10. Infrastructure optimization Extend equipment life with preventive and proactive maintenance • Match maintenance with equipment specifications • Track relay or breaker trips, UPS operations or remaining battery power automatically • Utilize alarm on temperatures, performance parameters and wear indicators • Reduce maintenance related labour costs Distribution system optimisation • Reduce capital expenses associated with poor power distribution system utilisation • Design power systems according to actual usage patterns • Generate load profiles automatically • Determine if your existing infrastructure will accommodate new processes

  11. Demand response and load curtailment Curtailing loads at your utility’s request helps you negotiate lower electricity rates. A PowerLogic system provides the tools to help you: • Evaluate the economic advantage of participation • Evaluate where, when and how much load should be shed • Verify curtailment activities in real time • Coordinate backup systems • Manage loads remotely or automatically • Verify contract compliance by all parties

  12. Peak demand reduction Using PowerLogic technology to reduce peak demand offers a quick and easy way to lower your electricity bill through: • Automatic forecasting of energy consumption and demand • Alerts that warn you when demand thresholds risk being exceeded • Isolating specific power-intensive activities that you may choose to reschedule to off-peak hours • Sequencing of motor and HVAC to startup to reduce instantaneous demand • Automatic load shedding or on-site generation start-up

  16. Load Management Load management involves an energy user who manipulating their load to reduce the demand they are putting on the electrical transmission and distribution network. This is typically done for one of three economically-driven reasons: • to avoid incurring a peak demand surcharge on their utility bill • to respond to a curtailment request from their local energy supplier (or independent system operator) if they are taking part in a demand response program • to take advantage of a special tariff or rate schedule structure.

  17. Load scheduling example Load Management: Load Scheduling Utilities often have different rates (tariffs) that apply for different times of the day. • Many large energy customers will often reschedule selected loads to different times of the day in order to: • take advantage of lower rates • avoid setting a new peak demand

  18. Load Management: Peak demand reduction Utilities structure the energy billing for large customers with various components. • One component is the charge for the total amount of energy the customer has consumed during the billing period. • Many utilities also add another component called the demand charge, which is normally based on the peak usage the customer experienced at some point during a preceding period, typically a month, a season or a year.

  19. Peak reduction example Load Management: Peak demand reduction Two important aspects of demand charges: • Once a demand peak is set, it can apply to every customer’s energy bill for up to a year in terms of calculating penalties. • Demand is generally calculated using aggregated intervals, not real-time data. This gives the customer time to react to the readings as each interval is measured.

  20. Alarming and Events • As a general statement, alarm and event management is a means of risk management and is a core element of the end user’s need to maintain high reliability and constant power to the critical loads within a facility. • Systems that provide these functions can be as simple as a single meter that sends an e-mail message and maintains a log of event data, or as intricate as a network of hundreds of meters and other devices connected to one or more software systems with multiple users.

  21. Alarming and Events Alarms are used to identify operational anomalies in the functioning of the electrical network and to notify appropriate personnel or systems • Reactive Alarm • The opening or closing of a relay can be used to trigger an alarm in the event of a tripped breaker condition • Active Alarm • A meter can be used to measure the load on a breaker and to trigger an alarm if the load exceeds a critical limit, such 60% or 80% of the rated capacity of the breaker. • Predictive Alarm • A meter, or the combination of a meter communicating with software, can compare loading, harmonic levels and temperature to indicate a high probability of a pending breaker trip.

  22. Energy Efficiency applications summary Use PowerLogic metering and advanced software for: • Cost Allocation • Procurement optimization • Power factor correction • Measurement and verification • Infrastructure optimization • Demand response and Load curtailment • Peak demand reduction
