Demand Side Management in Pellet Production: Internal and External Factors
This paper demonstrates a demand side
management case study: how to save energy and how research
and data analysis help to create an energy management system in
a pellet production facility; and shows ways to implement the EU
energy efficiency directive in production facilities. The study
carried out in this research serves as a far-reaching step that can
be taken to improve energy efficiency during the operation mode
of technological equipment. The benchmarking methodology is
used for analysis of results.
Internal and external factors and indicators, which affect
energy management potential in pellet production are analysed.
Analysis of external factors is based on the state legal framework
regulating the development of the energy sector. Methodology on
the analysis of energy demand includes the internal energy
management of an enterprise. The experimental results discussed
in this paper show that particular steps, which are oriented to
specific use of technological equipment, could play significant
role in energy efficiency improvement in industry which is
illustrated by the pre-milling process in the pellet production
system using power
