Nepal’s access to energy and modern energy services is inadequate and the use of energy is inefficient. The electrical power supply is characterized by scheduled power interruption up to 16 hours daily. The insufficient and interrupted supply of electricity affects industrial production negatively and forces more and more industrial and commercial enterprises to generate their own electricity generally by means of diesel generators. Over the last year its development has led to the increased import of petroleum products contributing to an increased trade balance deficit. Furthermore, the additional burning of fossil fuels results in higher emissions of climate change relevant and environmentally harmful pollutants.
Energy efficiency improvements help industries, business, governments, and consumers meet their needs by using less energy, saving them money, driving investment across all sectors of the economy, creating much needed jobs, and reducing the myriad of environmental impacts of the energy production system. The industrialists, regulators, and citizens are increasingly recognizing the energy efficiency is a crucially important national resource. In fact, the demand for the energy efficiency audit by the industrialists in Rupandehi is increasing day by day.
After performing the energy efficiency audits in the industries as well as the business, the project has identified the saving potential of around 2,000 kVA electrical demand, 3,39,000 kWh electricity, 33,380 litres of Diesel fuel, 27,300 litres of Furnace Oil and 31,14,000 MJ of thermal energy.
Electricity and each type of fuel savings are being compared with the annual electricity sales by Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) and fuel sales by Nepal Oil Corporation (NOC). Practice of energy efficiency in the different sectors has proved the saving of electrical energy equivalent to 4.03% of the sales by NEA and 2.39% of diesel sales by NOC. Finally, the energy efficiency project is being adopted by the industrialists and the business personnel to enhance their energy use.

[Oil & Gas White Paper] Optimizing Pipeline Energy ConsumptionSchneider Electric
Effective energy management can benefit the hydrocarbon pipeline operator. Energy consumption costs – the leading expense for most operators – are rising continuously; however, the commitments needed on the part of the operator often impede implementation of energy-saving practices.
Key to effective energy management is the ability to quantify energy consumption accurately at any specific time and its cost and that of drag reducing agent (DR) use. Operators committed to energy management can implement a real-time, system-wide power optimization solution that evaluates the resource efficiency of a steady-state model of the pipeline. This solution will also perform costing runs of alternative configurations, formulated for the next energy cost rate or other ‘what if’ scenarios, in order to find the most energy-efficient alternative that maintains operational safety and integrity. Implementing these alternatives, the operator can save one percent to five percent of energy costs and reduce carbon emissions.
This advanced information management technology makes these costing considerations so practical they can become a routine, real-time operations process. Putting available information to work with this solution can make power optimization extremely realistic and highly rewarding for the company while supporting overall operational security, safety and environmental stewardship.

cycle have improved dramatically, and the basic idea
of converting the stored energy of coal into electricity
accounts for more than 40% of the world’s power.
Solwatt is a comprehensive programme designed by Solvay to implement an energy management system on large energy-intensive industrial sites.
The review phase follows two streams:
The technical stream, aiming at documenting in an action plan a minimum of 10% savings through a series of short payback incremental improvements.
The behavioural and management stream, aiming at fostering a lasting culture of energy management and savings on the site, with a detailed structure of KPIs and KAIs.

Energy Analysis Plays an Important Role in Purchase DecisionsAvijit Choudhury
This document discusses factors to consider for electricity purchase decisions in Indonesia. It outlines electricity generation and pricing in Indonesia, noting heavy reliance on fossil fuels like coal and oil. Grid electricity prices are regulated and subsidized. Expanding generation from renewable sources like hydro, geothermal, and solar is a national goal. The document also compares costs of electricity from the grid versus gas-fired or coal-fired captive power plants for a factory, noting factors like fuel costs and efficiency. Waste heat recovery and use of gas-fired heat pumps can further reduce factory energy costs versus grid or conventional options.
The document discusses the importance of measurement, reporting and verification (MRV) protocols for energy service company (ESCO) projects in India. It describes a case study of an ESCO project to replace air conditioning units in a hospital where the projected energy savings turned out to be inaccurate due to flaws in the audit methodology. Specifically, the auditor extrapolated power consumption readings across the full run cycle of the AC units without considering that load varies over the cycle. Proper MRV protocols are needed to accurately establish baselines and verify savings to ensure the financial viability of ESCO projects.
This document summarizes a presentation given on the energy aspects of the auto industry. It notes that energy costs for the auto industry are expected to rise significantly in the coming years due to increasing fuel prices and sustainability concerns. While energy currently accounts for 10-15% of production costs, this is projected to rise to 19-26% within five years. The presentation emphasizes the importance of improving energy efficiency across the entire fragmented auto supply chain in order to control costs and comply with environmental regulations on greenhouse gas emissions. It provides examples of incentives for emission reductions and highlights Renault-Nissan's zero-carbon automotive plant as a case study for sustainable operations.
1. The fertilizer industry in India is energy intensive, with energy costs accounting for 65-87% of production costs.
2. Specific energy consumption (SEC) in the fertilizer industry has decreased over time through adoption of new technologies, retrofitting, and energy management practices.
3. SEC achieved by major fertilizer plants in India after the first PAT cycle ranged from 2.68 to 3.23 GCal/MT of urea, on par with global benchmarks.
1) The document discusses the need to consider additional factors when establishing baselines and measuring performance for power plants under the ISO 50001 energy management standard.
2) These factors include things like fuel availability, scheduling, ambient conditions, planned/forced outages that can impact a plant's loading and efficiency.
3) The document uses a case study of a gas-fired power plant to show how unaccounted factors led to its reported performance deteriorating against its baseline, though the plant operator argued external factors lowered its loading.
