Saving energy with OSWALD

Saving energy with modern electric motors

30% of the electricity generated worldwide powers electric motors. The optimisation and savings potential is enormous and is on the same order of magnitude as solar power generation.

Approaches:

• Customer-specific optimised drive solutions
• Increasing productivity with dynamic direct drive systems
• Use of direct drive systems without transmission components
• Energy optimisation of the machine, not the drive
• Use of inverters on previously unregulated motors
• Forgoing inverters on synchronous generators
• Use of generators for energy recovery
• Higher drive efficiencies (efficiency categories)

Other effects:
Space, equipment, and labour savings
