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.

Just like every other industrial enterprise, the Hershey Company's candy manufacturing plant in Stuarts Draft, VA, needs electrical power. Unlike many other enterprises, plant management has taken a proactive approach to its power usage. In the late 1990s, due to a plant expansion, Hershey's corporate engineering arm decided to bring on a power monitoring and control system. Since then, the benefits of that decision,utilizing Square D Powerlogic products from Schneider Electric, have gone far beyond analysis of power usage and quality and a better understanding of how the electrical distribution system is functioning at any given time.

Many of the nation's larger campuses in operation today include their own water treatment plants and power plants. Supplying power to these campuses has become a huge endeavor. 

To meet demand at Kent State, the university recently built a new power plant and is updating its distribution systems on campus. Part of bringing the new Power Plant online, was updating the distribution system from a 5KV system to a 15KV system. 

The man charged with overseeing the campus' power is Tom Dunn, the Associate Director of Energy. He's been with Kent State for over 28 years. "By choice, we maintain a minimum import from the utility," says Dunn. "In the summer, it increases a little and we produce 80-85 percent of our own power and import 20 percent " but for the most part we're pretty self-sufficient." Even before the new Power Plant, a more robust power distribution system needed to be in place, and the need for an improved power monitoring system was identified.

Most probably wouldn’t consider a ski resort a particularly big consumer of energy. But depending on the weather of a given season – particularly related to snowfall – it can become just that very quickly.

Bear Creek Mountain Resort & Conference Center is located on more than 330 acres in scenic Berks County, Penn. In the winter, the resort features skiing, snowboarding and snow tubing, along with other winter activities. In the summer, it’s ideal for hiking, biking, fishing and boating. For skiing – the backbone of the business – the resort features 21 trails and seven ski lifts.

A leading real estate investment trust manages more than 60 office properties across seven major U.S. cities, and it has a portfolio that includes a prestigious 50-storey building in downtown Manhattan. The property manager wanted to improve the way energy was used and conserved within the building, find a cost-effective way of tracking actual utility usage by each tenant, and do so without adding significant overhead in meter reading or other administrative costs.
