Scope of the audit

As a part of the study, we prepare a concept of optimization of electricity consumption in internal transmission networks. Precise measurements are performed with the use of specialized meters - these are the basis for power distribution assessment which, in turn, makes it possible to build a baseline electricity consumption profile at the plant / network balance limit and to identify the points with increased energy consumption or reduced energy quality points, and further to determine distribution losses.

Scope of research and analysis:

• analysis of the power supply system, including the power distribution per individual receiver currently applied,
• analysis of the compressed air production system,
• analysis of the ventilation and air conditioning systems (control and adjustment),
• analysis of the extraction systems installed over the stations (control and adjustment),
• analysis of the losses on individual components of the distribution system,,
• analysis of the efficiency of a transformer (mobility measurements),
• analysis of the technical condition of switchboards, including thermal imaging,
• analysis of the energy security of the installation (including power supply security),
• analysis of the lighting installation.

Measurements for the above specified scope:

• transformer losses measurement,
• measurements of the efficiency of air compressors and of the air leakage of compressed air systems (using a compressed air flow meter),
• measurement of electrical processes of propulsion systems,
• measurements of energy consumption and illumination,
• measurements of power distribution and quality of electricity.

The summary of the audit includes the presentation of economic effects achieved through implemented changes, together with approximate costs of recommended implementations and savings resulting from the upgraded system operation.
