As the largest community-owned utility in Florida and the eighth largest in the United States, JEA serves 360,000 customers in Jacksonville and parts of three adjacent counties. JEA has net generating capability of over 2,300 MW and owns and operates a combination of generation, transmission and distribution assets. Water and sewer systems are also part of its utility service offerings. 

As a part of efforts to maximize reliability across this extensive service area, JEA installed an automated energy analysis system. The system helps engineering personnel isolate and correct power quality issues and equipment risks throughout their network.

When it comes to the United States Air Force Medical Service (AFMS), the mission always comes first. But that can be a challenge, particularly when the AFMS offers medical service to more than 2.63 million eligible beneficiaries, including active duty personnel, family members and retirees, at 62 campuses nationwide, including dozens of hospitals, medical centers and clinics.

Second only to crude oil, electrical power is typically one of the highest production costs and key elements in the refining business. In the extremely competitive petrochemical industry, products are produced 24 hours/day - 7 days/week and pumped directly into the market without an inventory buffer. Unscheduled interruptions or disturbances which affect process equipment can lead to millions of dollars in lost production and electrical equipment if not managed properly. Therefore, the continuous supply of high quality power is essential to survival in the refining industry. This paper describes one west coast Refinery's success in proactively managing 110MW of power consumption with their PowerLogic power monitoring and control system that paid for itself in less than one year after it was fully commissioned.

Installation drives energy conservation and results in significant overall energy consumption cost savings

Less than a year after global power and automation leader Schneider Electric launched a new Enterprise Energy Management (EEM) solution designed to facilitate smart monitoring of energy usage to drive conservation initiatives leading to cost savings, one end user, U.S. auto-maker Ford Motor Company, has reported positive results.

Market growth and frequent product innovations were forcing the facility personnel at Smith and Nephew's Memphis plant to struggle to keep up with the demand for changes in the manufacturing processes. Without a good monitoring system to provide an accurate picture of loading, electricians struggled to determine if particular circuits could handle new loads. After installing a PowerLogic system, the staff soon had accurate peak demand data that allowed them to add new loads to existing circuits and avoid a $2 million expansion.

Durham College needed more electrical data in order to manage energy saving projects. Following work completed by Square D POWERLOGIC, the the base load dropped from 600,000 kWh per month in 1989 to 400,000 kWh per month in 1997. The average demand peaks were also reduced from 1,600 kW to 1,000 kW over the same time period. As a result of these reductions the College realized a cost savings of approximately $400,000 in 1998.

MEXICO'S NATIONAL PRIZE FOR CONSERVATION OF ELECTRIC POWER

A chemical manufacturing company needed a more efficient and controlled way to ensure compliance with an automated Time of Use/Dispatch Power rate schedule from their utility. Plant personnel however, had no way of knowing power usage and were unequipped to shed load when directed by the utility system. A PowerLogic system with circuit monitors was installed and programmed to automatically identify which areas of the manufacturing process needed to cut back usage when called on. Based on programmed setpoints the circuit monitor for each area signaled operators to trim power usage. The PowerLogic system provided a simple solution for avoiding expensive demand charges.
