Reduce Power Factor Penalty/ Optimizing Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings

Recognizing the Actual Expense of Energy

Energy is more than just electricity in industrial contexts; energy is the fuel of productivity.
When that energy is not properly managed, it can lead to wasted energy, vendor or utility bills with inflated charges, and penalties that are hidden, which eat into your profits.
Poor power factor is one of the most important yet least understood of the many contributors to these needless expenses.

The Power Factor Penalty Dilemma

Utility companies assess penalties once your reactive power exceeds a certain level. 
The reason for this penalty is that a low power factor causes an added load to the electrical system, which drives your utility to supply more current to provide the same amount of usable power.
This means: 
  • Higher electric bills 
  • More wear on your electric equipment 
  • Decreased reliability of electrical systems 
  • Overall poor efficiency 
In fact, industries sometimes end up paying more for energy that they never actually consumed.

The Resolution: Intelligent Power Factor Correction (iPFC)

Smart Power Factor Correction (SPFC) solutions will keep improving efficiency but the constant flux and huge variability of the modern industrial context is making SPFC obsolete. 
Modern-day industries demand intelligent, automated systems that not only monitor and analyze, but also optimize the energy live in real time. 
That is what NexXora’s Smart Power Factor Controller (SPFC) achieves.

How NexXora’s SPFC operates

NexXora’s Smart PFC system continually tracks kVAR consumption and supplies an instantaneous solution to changes in energy consumption.
Here’s how it provides smarter energy management:
Real-time power tracking
Continuously monitoring reactive power (kVAR) while keeping your system running at optimum efficiency levels.
Instant notification
When power consumption hits a critical level (i.e., 1000 kVAR), the system will send a signal to you before the penalties hit you. 
Dynamic optimization
It adjusts the system automatically to keep it at optimal power factor, eliminating waste and maximizing performance.
Life cycle of equipment
It balances loads and relieves your electrical components from overheating and wear and tear.
Financial savings
Optimizing power factor = less utility cost + improved efficiency of equipment.

Why Energy Efficiency Is No Longer Optional - But Now a Business Imperative?

With energy rates increasing and sustainability plans front and center for industry, energy efficiency is no longer optional; it’s now a must.
Smart correction of power factor not only prevents penalties but also leads to:
  • Reduced carbon footprint
  • Lower operational costs
  • Increased uptime and reliability
  • Enhanced overall productivity
