ENERGY ENHANCEMENTS<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Improve your existing temperature control equipment to reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, extend plant life and mitigate breakdown risk with our eMission Critical solutions. We can conduct no-obligation energy analysis audits and consultation to illustrate the best opportunities to improve energy efficiency whether through free cooling, heat recovery or efficiency improvements such as adiabatic enhancements or variable speed drives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We provide data to show how efficiently your equipment is operating and recommend ways it can be improved with expected payback periods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

FREE COOLING<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Free Cooling\u00a0projects can save up to 80% of temperature control energy costs.\u00a0 In much of Western Europe, the relatively cool climate allows for partial or full free cooling for much of the year with substantial energy savings between October and April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any externally sited chiller can benefit from free cooling. This can be in the form of partial free cooling (where the chiller\u2019s compressors are still doing some of the work to cool) to full free cooling (where the full load on the chiller is offset). In contrast, an externally sited chiller\u2019s compressors with no free cooling capabilities will be working flat out to achieve the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

HEAT RECOVERY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Free heating can be achieved by recovering the \u201cwaste\u201d heat from cooling processes.\u00a0 Where heating or hot water is required for process or domestic use on the same site as cooling requirements, then systems can be created or retrofitted to utilise heat rejected from cooling to reduce or even remove the need for fossil fuel heating.\u00a0 Heat pumps are classed as a renewable energy and can improve TER from 1.5 to 9 giving up to 600% potential efficiency gains.\u00a0 Why waste \u201cwaste heat\u201d?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recycling waste heat from your cooling systems will help to increase the efficiency of your plant. \u00a0The waste heat that would have been rejected to the atmosphere, is recovered and reused for any number of process needs including heating or preheating water to use for either domestic hot water or process applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ADIABATIC ENHANCEMENTS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Available for new and existing equipment, an adiabatic enhancement is a unique system that improves the performance, reliability, and energy efficiency of all air-cooled equipment, without requiring energy to provide its cooling effect.\u00a0 The adiabatic enhancement works by reducing the temperature of the ambient air by as much as 20\u00b0C. A reduction of 10\u00b0C alone can generate a 13% reduction in energy consumption \u2013 delivering immediate cost savings and environmental benefits.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

VARIABLE SPEED FREQUENCY DRIVES (VSD)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Controlling the flow of air and water in process temperature control systems is an effective, permanent way to meet the everchanging demands put on a system and enhance its efficiency.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ICS Cool Energy can install a Variable Speed Drive or VSD (an electrical\/electronic system that provides infinitely variable speed control of AC induction motors).\u00a0 VSD\u2019s can be installed to meet varying system flow rate requirements or just to increase energy efficiency.\u00a0 Payback on an installed system can be as little as 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
