Brief summary on the trend of energy efficiency investments in the Indian Spinning Industry. Take a look at what's common and what's not?

1. #EnergyEfficiency Investment trend
in the #Spinning Industry.
Published by: The EDA Centre

2. Spinning Industry in India
40+ Million ~5000 MW
40+ Million Spindles Installed Capacity Aggregate electricity consumption across
all spinning units
500-750 MW
Potential to release 500 to 700 MWs at optimistic saving potential of around 10%-15%.

3. Investment Trend

4. What’s common?
Shift to Energy
Efficient Pumps &
Motors in H
Plants
Addressing
Compressed Air
Leakage
Switch to LEDs
Weather Based H
Plant Energy
Consumption
Optimization
Inverters on WCS

5. What’s not common?
Energy Saving by
reducing system
resistance in H-
plant by
providing
fogging system
for conventional
air washer
H Plant Energy
Consumption
monitoring on
Heat Load
Studying Energy
Consumption
Pattern to for
demand side
management .

6. What’s missing?
Energy Management
Standards
• EnMS implementation is not
being seen as a “way” to
advance Energy Efficiency
Technology Upgrades
• No mention of investments
done on shifting to a new
technology on the process or
auxiliary consumption
Slightly surprising
as most
international
reports point out
to EnMS
implementation
and technology
upgrade as
strategic ways to
advance Energy
Efficiency

7. Food for thought?
10%
Only 10% of
the units are
investing in
definite EDA
Strategy
30%
Only 30% of
the projects
are
uncommon.
80% to 20%
80% of the
investment
being done
on 20% of
energy
consumption
area.

8. Way ahead?
Energy
Productivity
Linking Energy
Consumption to
Process/Production
and focusing on
Energy Productivity
gains.
90% to 80%
Time to channelize
Energy Efficiency
investments into
areas that
consumer over 80%
of the total Energy
Consumption
Innovation
Investing in analysis
operational data to
discover/innovate
ways to
manage/reduce
energy demand or
increase
productivity.
