Energy efficiency in the water industry

When we move energy from power generators to industrial use, huge energy losses occur along the chain. With ABB drives we can cut the energy losses almost in half.

Variable speed drives can help in solving the energy challenges we all face. Pumps are one of the most common motor applications and offer the biggest potential for saving energy because at half the speed only one-eighth of the power is needed.

EnergySave is a is user-friendly and interactive energy saving calculator for comparing AC drive control against traditional flow control methods in different applications such as fan and pump.

Energy efficiency portalNearly 70 percent of all industrial electrical energy use goes to powering electric motors. Find out here how utilizing variable speed drives will save you energy and money.
