Energy Solutions Exhibition - Olympia Oct 2011
With the ever increasing emphasis on reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint, more and more companies are looking for ways to achieve this. CRC legislation is also increasing and putting additional pressure on large organisations with an, energy spend of over £500,000. With this in mind, Energy Managers are looking for ways to meet this criteria.
The Energy Solutions Expo attracts a wide range of delegates from all over the UK who are involved in the procurement of energy efficiency and sustainability products and technologies.
iVolt excelled themselves again this year with an even bigger stand, to pull in the crowds. The exhibition was a great success, with live demonstrations, competitions and a seminar. Live demonstrations of the iVolt were received well by the visitors to the stand, with the Radical SR8 RX attracting the attention of the crowds.
Seminars
CPD Seminar at Hilton - Jan 2012




iVolt held their first bi-annual seminar in January 2012 on Voltage Optimisation. The seminar was a great success, informing attendees about the technology behind the product and how voltage optimisation has evolved. The day included live hands on product demonstrations, a chance to engage with the experts, all candidates achieved a CPD (Continuing Professional Development) qualification in voltage optimisation. There was also a focus on carbon footprint and how iVolt can help cut your Company's energy costs and reduce your carbon footprint.
The seminar which took place at the Hilton Hotel Heathrow T5, received high attendance from procurement directors and finance directors from leading UK corporates, through to the smaller individual organisations, including retail and leisure.
Voltage reduction or optimisation as it's also called was developed by the Japanese in 1993. The evolution in the UK started about a decade ago with fixed reduction transformers. Fast forward to 2011 and voltage optimisation is a key solution in energy saving and carbon footprint reduction. Its most recent stage of evolution comes with the introduction of Intelligent Power Optimisation as the logical progression to this key energy saving solution.
Why Intelligent Power Optimisation is the only option for the future
Voltage reduction or optimisation as its also called was developed by the Japanese in 1993. The evolution in the UK started about a decade ago with fixed reduction transformers. Fast forward to 2011 and voltage optimisation is a key solution in energy saving and carbon foot print reduction. Its most recent stage of evolution comes with the introduction of Intelligent Power Optimisation as the logical progression to this key energy saving solution.
Voltage optimisation products are available in 4 different technologies;
1) Fixed type reduction,
2) Variable Optimisation Products using Variac/motorised based stabilisation,
3) Variable Optimisation Products using Relay based stabilisation and finally,
4) the measurable, maintenance free, solid state, fit-and-forget technology of iVolt's Intelligent Power Optimisation solution.
Intelligent Power Optimisation, unlike fixed reduction units provides maximum energy saving attainable (up to 30% more) without the risk of under-voltage. It will also enhance the power quality by smoothing out all variations in the supply and further enhancing 3 Phase installations by balancing all 3 Phases. Our Solid State, micro processor controlled iVolt will correct and stabilise the mains supply to 220V +/-1.5 at a speed in excess of 1250Volts/Second.
Microprocessor technology adds state of the art functionality like the patented iVolt IRT which allows the user to measure ENERGY SAVING IN REAL TIME without resorting to theoretical assumptions/calculations or taking the VO on/off line to compare before and after energy consumption. This is a huge step forward in identifying the true project costs and savings that have been achieved.
The company behind iVolt is the Sollatek Group with over 30 years global experience in voltage stabilisation/reduction has now shifted focus to help the UK market by applying its technology in this field. Backed up by a strong UK based R & D team who have designed and manufactured products in harsh power quality environments, the iVolt is a hybrid of the successful Sollatek AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulator) with over 5000 installations worldwide.
Intelligent Power Optimisation revealed and how IRT® Energy Monitor provides the definitive ROI measurement to the Energy Buyer
As every energy manager's main concern is the amount of energy saved and return on investment, the IRT will deliver on this concern by measuring the saving in real time. Using its in-built algorithm, the iVolt will gently remove optimisation and re-instate it at pre set times in a pre-defined cycle. Taking full power consumption measurement at every stage, the iVolt will compare real energy saved with or without optimisation. This takes place without user input. Up 90 days worth of data will be saved to its memory bank for downloading or polling remotely (TBA).
The iVolt will show the maximum saving optimisation can deliver with its accurate stabilised out of 220V +/-1.5%.
Case studies so far has shown iVolt optimisation can produce saving up to 18% in a general office/warehouse environment. Higher savings (>18%) has been made possible in a specialist food manufacturing company where refrigeration load is a significant portion of the over all load.

NEMEX SustainabilityLive! NEC May 2011 – (iVolt Launch)
iVolt stand at Sustainabilitylive!




Sollatek, a world leader in voltage stabilisation products, announces the launch of iVolt®. The iVolt® is a variable voltage optimisation unit that uses unique microprocessor, thyristor and transformer technology to maximise energy savings:
Saves up to 30% more than any fixed voltage reduction product. Guaranteed.
Integrated IRT Energy Monitor® for real-time tracking of energy savings.
iVolt® was launched on 24th May 2011, at the NEMEX Sustainabilitylive! Exhibition in Birmingham. This event proved to be a fantastic success, giving our new product a great start in the voltage optimisation market.
At NEMEX we introduced our unique Intelligent Power Optimisation technology which was met with equal enthusiasm by professionals across both the public and private sectors.
The iVolt stand made quite an impression, turning lots of heads with the presence of the Radical SR8 RX racing car sponsored by iVolt. As part of our sustainability commitment, iVolt Ltd. has offset the carbon emissions of the SR8 RX for the duration of its racing life, by planting native trees across the South East of England.
