ManufacturingTo make this measure more effective and tailored to the specific context of your company, we recommend that you first perform an overall analysis of your energy situation.
This measure aims to replace a hydraulic bending machine or press brake operating with a three-phase asynchronous motor, with equivalent technology equipped with a servo motor. The hydraulic system runs continuously, even when the machine is not producing, resulting in significant and unnecessary energy consumption.
Implementing this measure can reduce electricity consumption by more than 30%. It is quite easy to carry out and does not require production shutdown. Although the technology is highly mature, energy cost savings alone may not always be sufficient for a return on investment. However, the lower the machine’s operating frequency, the greater the potential for energy and financial savings. It is therefore recommended to prioritise retrofitting machines with short operating times maximise return on investment.
A servo motor is a motor capable of accurately controlling rotary motion and maintaining a precise position. It can be used to drive different types of pistons, such as hydraulic, spindle or rocker pistons, allowing the equipment’s start-up and operation to be precisely adjusted according to actual needs.r.
For the machine equipped with a servo motor, financial savings are mainly achieved through significantly reduced electricity consumption, up to 70% compared to the baseline levels.
Apart from energy savings, a machine equipped with a servo motor offers several other advantages:
Please note: any application for government or non-government subsidies must comply with the “incentive effect”, subject to compliance with the subsidy conditions.
To ensure that the incentive effect of the aid is respected, no binding commitments may be made (acceptance of a quote; advance)
N.B. While several state subsidies cannot be granted for the same project, they can be combined with supplier subsidies.
Since 2015, natural gas and electricity suppliers are required to make energy savings for consumers under the obligation scheme. Since then, energy suppliers have been offering support and advice, as well as subsidy programmes for consumers to implement energy efficiency measures. The amount of the premium is proportional to the annual energy saving. The following suppliers offer this service for companies:
N.B. Les aides des fournisseurs sont cumulables avec une aide étatique pour le même projet.
The tax relief is calculated based on the investments and operating expenses incurred as part of an ecological and energy transition project.
The tax relief rate is set at 18% and is applied directly to the amount of tax due.
This deduction can be combined with standard state subsidies.
For the project to be eligible, it must meet at least one of the following objectives:
For certain objectives, minimum thresholds must be met.
To verify your eligibility and ensure that these thresholds are satisfied, it is recommended that the impact of the measure on one of the above conditions be certified by an expert or a design office.
