Imagefarm

Imagefarm achieved energy bill savings of £9,000 and improved power quality to their 24/7 factory.

In 2011 bosses of Imagefarm, a food production facility, successfully implemented a strategy to tackle the problem of rising energy costs while improving the lifespan of their machinery. The company installed an iVolt voltage optimisation unit, which initially resulted in a 15% reduction in their electricity bills. With an annual energy bill of over £60,000, this represents an impressive saving of around £9,000 per year. The factory runs 24/7 and uses two main 500kVA transformers. As such, the energy savings brought about by the iVolt unit are particularly impressive.

Andy Bowers, the Operations Manager, stated that choosing the iVolt system has proved to be a “win win” for the company. When installed, they expect to recoup the cost of the unit within three years, which in itself was an excellent return on investment and when this was achieved, the company was even more impressed. He explains that the company looked at a variety of options for cutting costs, including voltage optimisation, and decided on the iVolt system in particular because it is the only one that allows them to monitor accurate savings in real-time. Additionally, they were attracted to the long-term benefits that the system would have on their equipment.
