Good Morning ,
Our energy supplier has a rebate program. We would like to install a frequency drive for our air compressor.This is what we have at the moment.....
150 HP , 1785 RPM , 1.15 service factor
Starting Operation- Across the line Starter
( No wye/delta start just across the line )
Our plan is to put a frequency drive on this motor.
I need to justify this purchase and also convince the power company to pay 50% of this project.
On our bill, the first demand block is....
Billing units is 500 and the Charge rate is 1.72 for $860.00
Second demand block is......
Billing units is 437 and the charge rate is 1.69 for $738.00
By installing a frequency drive on this 150 hp motor , would that reduce these demand blocks. Could you also share some of the math that I would need to justify this with both parties.
Thanks so much in advance.
