Popis: SYNOPSIS The Most significant use of energy by the water industry is in the consumption of electricity, which is attributable to the many pumping operations under taken. For most water undertakings, this represents more than 85 per cent of all energy used and involves several millions of pounds expenditure per annum. Therefore pumping operations warrant particular attention in energy management approach. Energy management can be related as a requirement to check both the economics of operations as well as to improve energy efficiency generally. With this consideration. examples are given of changes that have been made to pumping operations which are compatible with satisfying increasing demands for pumping and operational flexibiity in an environment of rising energy costs.
