CONSULTANCY SERVICES Through its association with Energy & Combustion Services (ECS), Masana provides highly innovative solutions to the mining and industrial sectors, ensuring significant fuel savings to customers that are validated via expert measurement and verification methodologies certified to SANS 50010-2011; while following the International Performance and Verification Protocol (IPMVP - 2012). ECS professional services, technologies and support for the energy management process include: • Metering, measurement and data acquisition • Usage analysis • Energy auditing • Baseline energy modelling • Opportunity identification • Solutions development • Project Management and intervention tracking, monitoring and interactive reporting, Performance Dashboards • Productivity and Energy Management Information Systems ENERGY PLUS: ECS Productivity and Energy Management Services (Energy Plus) is a proven high performance management programme specifically designed for mining and industrial processes. Here, massive opportunities exist for productivity improvement and energy savings via strategic cost control, production process/systems optimisation and minimisation of waste. Energy Plus is the answer. MEASUREMENT AND VERIFICATION SERVICES: International Performance Measurement and Verification Protocol (IPMVP) is a globally recognised inspection process governed by various international standards and protocols, with a broad range of applications. SECTION 12L: Significant opportunity exists in the application of the Section 12L tax incentive to energy savings projects. Section 12L is an Energy incentive aimed at the efficient use of energy to safeguard the security of supply and it provides an opportunity for industry stakeholders to put energy efficiency measures in place to reduce carbon emissions going forward. It’s focused around predictive maintenance to improve downtime, reduce failure costs, help plant managers. Sensing and monitoring – New technology, with sensors and cloud software to detect and forecast bearing and gear failures on heavy equipment, often seeing bearing failures 12 - 18 months ahead of required repairs. INSPECTION TECHNOLOGY: iPhone/Android and cloud- based application for digitising all lubrication/machine checklists and performing. Better consistency, efficiency and data for analytics. CASE STUDY: Fuel Avoidance By implementing Energy Plus at a large open cast mining operation in South Africa and over a period of 8 years, the following fuel avoidance impacts as a percentage and Rands savings per year is shown below. 8.
