Power Factor

Power factor is a measure of how efficiently you are using the electricity you are purchasing from your electric utility. Equipment such as motors, HVAC blowers, pumps, and fans affects your power factor. Depending on your electric utility, a poor power factor can be costly. If you are large enough for your electric utility to have a demand meter at your facility that is used for billing purposes, there is a chance you are being penalized for a poor power factor and not even know it.




 

If there is an opportunity for savings on your electric bill by correcting a poor power factor, we will notify you. And we'll present you with options as to how you might wish to pay for needed equipment.

We can bring an energy expert into your facility to evaluate almost any project you may have. Whether it is a one-time situation or an ongoing maintenance agreement, we will work with you to determine what services best fit your needs.

To find out how we can help you experience significant energy cost savings e-mail us.
