Avaliação da gestão energética em uma indústria de embalagens plásticas: estudo de caso

Abstract

Will be presented in this paper a study about energetic management of a plastic package industry, located in Mato Grosso do Sul, with contracted demand of 780 kW and annual expenses of R$ 728.428,39. Analyzed the demand contract, the tariff modality considering the industry own generation during the peak hours and was determined the indicators of energetic management, such as power factor, average price, demand and specific cost. The results obtained proposed an increase to the demand contract to 810 kW, the maintenance of the green tariff and the usage of the industry own generation during the peak hours, obtaining an annual economy of up to R$ 988,81 in comparison with other simulated options. The instalation of a demand controller at the industry was another evaluated option in this study.
