Gestão energética: estudo de caso em uma lavanderia industrial

Abstract

In the last decade, electricity has shown a very high price increase, reaching much higher than the increase in inflation and, as it is an input of great use in the industrial sector, it has led companies to seek solutions to reduce such expenses. with electricity and improve its competitiveness in the market. Furthermore, one can also cite the gradual concern with the environmental issue causing the need for new ways of producing energy, mainly through renewable sources. The present work aimed to deepen the subject of energy management in the industrial sector. Therefore, it presents a case study of an industrial laundry in which energy management measures were applied, such as tariff analysis, with the implementation of an aerial substation on site and the installation of a photovoltaic system connected to the grid. Finally, the economic feasibility analysis of the proposed measures was exposed, reporting the savings generated during the useful life of the equipment. Therefore, proving that the two proposals are viable, varying only the initial investment value and the payback period
