SAVING ELECTRICITY IN INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION WHEN APPLYING TECHNOLOGY TO CONTROL THE SPEED OF ELECTRIC MOTORS

Abstract

Electricity plays a very important role in the development of the economy. However, electricity is not an unlimited resource. According to the trend of global demand for electricity is increasing rapidly. Vietnam is also one of the countries with rapidly increasing demand for electricity due to economic and population development, especially in the industrial and service sectors. Therefore, industrial enterprises need to invest in energy-saving technology and optimize production processes to reduce costs and electricity consumption. The paper focuses on analyzing, comparing, evaluating... the benefts of applying frequency converters to improve performance and save energy for electric drive systems in industrial plants. The installation of inverter control will increase energy effciency, save electricity consumption, improve power factors and process accuracy, soft start and overspeed capability, bringing economic, technical and safety benefts.
