The measure involves replacing simple machining tools, changing the production mode and avoiding shutdowns for unplanned maintenance and cleaning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
By installing these technologies, which have been available on the market for over 5 years, companies can save up to 30% on electricity costs and reduce their carbon footprint. This measure is not simple to implement and would entail a medium-to-long term return on investment. This measure can be implemented with only a partial production shutdown during installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
The unclogging timer is set so that the filter operates at maximum capacity. Considering that not all production machines are always running at maximum capacity, timed unclogging overestimates the unclogging requirement compared with reality. Unclogging a filter using a differential pressure sensor will significantly reduce compressed air consumption as it measures the condition of the filter by pressure difference. The production of compressed air has a relatively low efficiency of around 15 to 20%. The decrease in compressed air consumption is estimated at 70%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the filter bags need to be unclogged much less frequently, and since the mechanical force of the compressed air is no longer applied to an unloaded filter bag, the service life of the bags is considerably increased.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please note: any application for government or non-government subsidies must comply with the “incentive effect”, subject to compliance with the subsidy conditions.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> N.B. While several state subsidies cannot be granted for the same project, they can be combined with assistance from energy suppliers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n 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 (in MWh). The following suppliers offer this service for companies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n N.B.: Supplier subsidies can be combined with a state subsidy for the same project.<\/p>\n\n\n The tax relief is calculated based on the investments and operating expenses incurred as part of an ecological and energy transition project. For the project to be eligible, it must meet at least one of the following objectives:<\/p>\n For certain objectives, minimum thresholds must be met. Further details and conditions: Guichet.lu<\/a>
