Industrial Buildings - Modernizing Manufacturing with Energy Autonomy
Challenge:
A manufacturing facility specializing in high-tech components in Texas grapples with unreliable power supply and high operational costs due to its energy-intensive processes. The company aims to gain energy autonomy to enhance production efficiency and reduce downtime caused by power outages.
Solution:
Amrenergy deploys a comprehensive microgrid system featuring solar panels, and a state-of-the-art battery storage system, that all orchestrates via a sophisticated energy management system tailored for industrial settings.
Implementation:
The initial phase involves an in-depth consultation to understand the specific energy demands and operational workflows of the facility. Amrenergy’s team will design a custom microgrid solution that not only caters to the high energy needs but also aligns with the company’s sustainability objectives.
Solar panels would be extensively installed over the large roof areas and unused land surrounding the facility. The battery storage system captures excess solar energy and supplies additional power during peak usage periods.
Desired Outcome:
The system fully offsets the facility’s energy consumption from the grid, providing 100% energy autonomy and significantly reducing energy costs by 50%. The reliable power supply eliminates downtime, increasing overall production efficiency and helping the company meet its sustainability targets ahead of schedule.
Benefits:
- Operational Resilience: Elimination of downtime due to power outages.
- Cost Reduction: Halved energy expenses, freeing up capital for reinvestment into core business activities.
- Sustainability Achievement: Meet corporate environmental goals through reduced reliance on non-renewable energy sources.
