Power Factor Correction (PFC) is a critical technique in electrical power systems used to improve the efficiency of power utilization and reduce energy losses. In industrial and commercial installations, where inductive loads such as motors, transformers, and fluorescent lighting are prevalent, poor power factor is a common issue that leads to higher currents, increased losses, and unnecessary costs.
Energy efficiency is a key driver for sustainability, cost reduction, and operational optimization in industries, commercial buildings, and residential facilities. An energy audit is a systematic approach to assessing energy consumption, identifying inefficiencies, and proposing cost-effective solutions to enhance energy savings. This article explores energy audit methodologies, essential tools, and strategies to maximize energy savings.
