Eficiencia Energética en Instalaciones de Agua

This free course introduces the contents for carrying out an energy audit. The program provides the necessary tools to diagnose the energy consumption in these facilities and to propose solutions and improvement measures, as well as the drafting of the energy audit report.

AIMED AT:

  • Profiles with an interest in developing or continuing their professional development in water technology and management and sustainable development, and who wish to contribute to reducing the environmental impact associated with the energy management of a water infrastructure.

IF YOU COMPLETE IT SUCCESSFULLY YOU WILL BE ABLE TO:

  • Quantify the energy consumption of a water installation and its associated costs.

  • Determine the energy efficiency of the equipment that make up the water installations.

  • Identify and characterize the factors affecting energy consumption.

  • Detect the parts of the installation that are not energy efficient.

  • Prepare an energy audit report.

  • Identify and present possible improvements to the energy efficiency of a facility.

Energy efficiency in water installations

Over the past few years, governments have developed a series of directives to achieve energy consumption and demand reduction objectives and its incentive through subsidies to promote energy efficiency. The objective is to reduce energy dependence and reduce atmospheric emissions.

In addition, the integral water cycle companies are promoting a series of measures to improve the quality of the water cycle. optimization of energy consumption in different cyclist facilities. To this end, a diagnosis of energy consumption is carried out in order to provide a series of improvement actions that will allow to obtain a better energy efficiency. triple objective:

  • Reduce energy consumption.
  • Minimize CO2 emissions to the atmosphere.
  • Reduce electricity bill costs.

The scope of the energy consumption diagnosis includes the energy efficiency analysis of the equipment with the highest consumption and the study of the current energy billing, as well as other technical and operational aspects that allow optimizing the energy consumption of the installation. For this, initially it will be necessary to collect data in the field with portable measuring equipment. From the study of these data obtained, it will be possible to calculate the yields and ratios that will provide the knowledge of the current state of the installation, in order to subsequently carry out a series of proposals that will help to improve the energy efficiency of the installation.
