- [00:00:01.870]Hello and welcome
- [00:00:02.820]to the Nebraska Industrial Assessment Center video series,
- [00:00:05.620]where today we will be exploring barriers
- [00:00:07.760]to reducing peak demand.
- [00:00:09.610]In this video, we are going to explore
- [00:00:11.460]the challenges and barriers that can arise
- [00:00:13.980]when a facility is scheduling
- [00:00:15.270]their monthly fire pump test.
- [00:00:17.403]So when we take a look at this demand profile,
- [00:00:19.450]we can see that there's two different options
- [00:00:21.790]for times where your fire pump test could be scheduled.
- [00:00:24.930]If we look at option one,
- [00:00:26.550]we can see that it significantly increases
- [00:00:28.320]the facility's demand on top of their peak demand already,
- [00:00:31.860]and it exceeds about 250 kilowatts.
- [00:00:34.500]Whereas if the operation were scheduled to occur
- [00:00:37.500]during this lower peak demand time,
- [00:00:39.323]the demand would only reach about 200 kilowatts.
- [00:00:42.400]And as we can see,
- [00:00:43.720]there's a 50 kilowatt savings
- [00:00:45.200]between the two times where that operation
- [00:00:47.270]could be scheduled.
- [00:00:48.420]And so making sure that you effectively communicate
- [00:00:51.360]with the entity outside of your plant
- [00:00:52.950]that does your monthly testing is very crucial.
- [00:00:56.720]In addition, another necessary practice
- [00:00:58.794]for demand savings is to have effective demand management.
- [00:01:03.220]For an operation shift to result
- [00:01:04.800]in successful demand savings,
- [00:01:06.510]they must be properly scheduled and managed.
- [00:01:09.350]Even just one slipup,
- [00:01:10.670]such as accidentally running an independent process
- [00:01:13.385]during peak demand time,
- [00:01:15.269]can eliminate any potential for demand savings
- [00:01:18.106]for the duration of the billing period.
- [00:01:20.530]To ensure this does not occur,
- [00:01:22.490]effective communication between employees and management
- [00:01:25.029]is absolutely crucial.
