1 Energy Efficiency in Industrial Areas: Examples, Chances and Challenges Dr.-Ing. Alexander Schlüter

2 Primary energy / MWh/a Greenhouse gas emissions / t CO2e/a Introduction Present state Step a Step b Step c Step d Step e 0 Source: Schlüter et al. (2011)

3 Content of the presentation Introduction General information about energy efficiency measures Single measures Holistic approach Conclusion

4 Energy efficiency fields Increasing energy efficiency Industry, manufacturing trade Services, energy supply Households Transport, mobility Monitoring Development of controls Systems, machines and plants Organisation Sectoral addressing and implementation Intelligent decentralised hybrid structures Minimise conversion losses Usage of waste heat Minimise transport losses Monitoring (smart metering) Basic structure of buildings (financing programmes) Heat supply Pattern of use Lightweight construction Drive concepts Source: Hesselbach (2012), p.3

5 Final Energy Consumption in German Industry conversion in thermal energy (heat) 75 % other process heat 66% process cooling and air conditioning 1% mechanical energy 21% ICT (electricity) 1% lighting 2% space heating 8% hot water 1% Source: German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology (2014)

6 Example: Way to decrease energy costs Trend of costs when applying short time energy management Trend of costs when applying continuous enms-processes (constant improvements, training and motivation) Decision to implement an EnMS according to ISO Investment Ongoing Investment Rising demand of energy Simple measures of energy savings dropping costs more measures Saving energy becomes part of the company`s culture Activities for saving energy only occasionally, without continuous control und improvement Successful and longterm reduction of energy costs Source: Austrian Energy Agency (2007), p. 6

7 Energy monitoring Live monitoring Before optimization: know your energy flows! Measures on the basis of energetic comparison Analysis of historic data Key values and benchmarking kwh/part, kwh/kg Volume compressed air per day coefficient of performance Source: Limón GmbH

8 Main primary energy demand in a plastic processing factory HVAC: heating, ventilation and air conditioning Source: Schlüter, Rosano (2016)

9 Auto industry: Quick wins I Energy efficiency by increasing productivity Optimization of robots Usage of coolers instead of compression chillers Lighting 4,0 3,5 Adaption of the cooling water temperature 3,0 2,5 2,0 12 1,5 1,0-1,5 1,5-2,0 2,0-2,5 10 2,5-3,0 3,0-3,5 3,5-4,0 1, Sources: Ostfalia (2014); Schlüter (2013)

10 Auto industry: Quick wins 2 Optimization of pneumatic system Insulation of hot processes Luftein- und auslass Heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) geschlossener Strömungskanal Produkt Source: Müller et al. (2009), Gloor (2000); J. Wagner (2014)

11 Energetical overview concerning air-conditioning systems Deluting Air Customised method Layering Housing Spot cooling Conventional mixedventilation Air volume adaptation Luftein- und auslass Punktkühlung 0 % Produkt Punktkühlung: Standbyswitching geschlossener Strömungskanal Lufteinund auslass 23 C Nur Produkt auf 18 C -24 to -37 % Air volume sensors Layer ventilation -41 to -53 % Temperature sensors Connection of relevant production areas -63 % to -87 % Produkt (18 C) -95 to -99 % Cooling only the product Source: J. Wagner (2014) 11

12 Auto industry: Quick wins 2 Optimization of pneumatic system Insulation of hot processes Luftein- und auslass Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) geschlossener Strömungskanal Produkt Utilization of waste heat Heat recovery Switch off belts/machines when possible Source: Müller et al. (2009), Gloor (2000); J. Wagner (2014)

13 Changing a whole plastics factory Impact of a holistic approach Σ = 26 % Σ = 41 % Holistic approach clearly better Source: Schlüter, Rosano (2016) Dr.-Ing. Alexander Schlüter 13

14 Conclusion There are several opportunities to increase your energy efficiency! Conduct energy management system according to ISO 50001! Train your staff they might bring in ideas. Start with quick wins but try to think and conduct holistically!
