Energy Management and Sustainable Plant Performance
From rising energy prices to sustainability performance, many forces are behind the movement toward more effective and efficient energy management.
Governments are now requiring companies to track and report on carbon emissions. In fact, heavy energy users must report annually if they emit more than 25,000 metric tons of CO2e from stationary combustion sources.
It is not realistic to think that we can build enough coal-fired plants to keep up with surging U.S. electrical demand given the rising concern about climate change. It is a very daunting task to reduce C02 while increasing generation capacity. This leads to an energy supply and demand dilemma. Many parts of the world are seeing their peak margin (reserve) disappear with a robust economy and increasing demand for more power and are focusing on the last 10% of generation used in a peak situation, which can generate 30% or more of carbon emissions.
- U.S. electricity demand growing 1.5 – 3.0% annually
- U.S. electricity prices will rise “fairly dramatically” over the next 3 to 5 years as rate caps put in place during an earlier wave of utility mergers expire
- U.S. produces 20% of the world’s greenhouse gases and the electric utilities produce 40 percent of that (8% of the world’s greenhouse gases)
