“…Thus, it was suggested that an energy audit is a primary step towards improving EE at the facility level [18]. Additionally, Lin et al [70] used data from on-site energy audits from 118 Taiwanese firms over the period 2009-2013 to summarize the energy-saving potential and energy savings implemented in 2011 by 72 PPI firms in Taiwan, with the intention that the results would be used as a reference by the PPI for stimulating changes in EE.…”

Drivers, Barriers, and Success Factors for Improving Energy Management in the Pulp and Paper Industry

Successful energy management is a way to achieve energy efficiency in the pulp and paper industry (PPI), which is important for assuring energy supply security, for increasing economic competitiveness, and for mitigating greenhouse gases. However, research shows that although energy use within PPI can be reduced by 5.5-19.4% per year, some of this by energy management practices, energy management is not always implemented. Why is this so? What are the barriers to, and drivers of implementation? How can the barriers be overcome? A systematic review of barriers and drivers in energy management in the PPI within peer-reviewed scientific articles suggests that the world-wide events that affect energy supply, volatility, and use seemingly also affect the number and frequency of research articles on energy management in the PPI. The perception of energy management in the PPI seems to be dominated by the understanding that it can mostly be achieved through technological improvements aiming to improve energy efficiency. The main driver of energy management was shown to be economic conditions: high and unstable energy prices, followed by drivers such as the need to remain internationally competitive, collaboration and energy management systems. Meanwhile, examples of the most important barriers are technical risks, lack of access to capital, lack of time and other priorities, and slim organization. The success factors for enhancing drivers and overcoming barriers were continuous energy accounting, energy-related collaboration, energy-efficiency programmes, and benchmarking. Altogether, success factors for energy management for improved energy efficiency could be summarized in the 4M framework-the "4M for energy efficiency": mind, measure, monitor, and manage-that could be used as the energy management memory-tool that could lead to improved energy efficiency in other sectors as well.

“…Constant improvement of energy efficiency in the pulping and papermaking processes was, indeed, a frequent subject of academic research with industrial applications [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]. Fleiter et al [13] provided a comprehensive overview of the options to improve energy efficiency in the German pulp and paper industry with the emphasis on possible future trends.…”

Energy consumption optimization belongs to the main agendas in sustainable industries. Here, cost-saving opportunities in the pulp and paper industry as one of the largest industrial energy consumers worldwide are in the focus. Energy-saving measures are proposed employing a large-scale mathematical model of a paper machine based on mass and energy balances supported by real-time experiments in paper machine operation. The presented measures are based on the optimization of paper stock pumping and a drying section operation. The total energy-saving effect of the four proposed measures accounted for a reduction in specific heat and electricity consumption by more than 2 %. The proposed procedures require no or low investment costs with the overall simple rate of return of less than one year.

“…Igualmente, en (Boharb et al, 2016), se realiza una auditoría energética a una empresa dedicada a la producción y comercialización de alimentos para ganado en Marruecos, analizando el uso de la energía por parte de la empresa, realizando recomendaciones correspondientes. En la literatura (Lin et al, 2014), se resume el potencial de ahorro de energía entre 168.3-762.1 Tera julios de 118 empresas de Pulpa y Papel en Taiwán. Finalmente, en (Kong et al, 2013), se describe una auditoría energética de una fábrica de papel en China, para identificar oportunidades de conservación de energía y mitigación de CO 2 , con un potencial de ahorro de energía de 967,8 Tera julios y de 93.453 toneladas de CO 2 .…”

Introducción. Este articulo desarrolla un método para estimar costos eléctricos por unidades de producción en una industria, basada en la norma ISO 50002 y estándares ISA 5.1 e ISA 88.1. Objetivo. Encontrar indicadores que relacionen el consumo de energía con los niveles de producción. Materiales y métodos. El método consta de ocho pasos: definición de objetivos, recolección de datos históricos, definición de áreas de interés, realización del censo de carga, ejecución de medición, trabajo de campo, cálculos y resultados y análisis. Siendo aplicada en una industria licorera en Popayán Colombia, dónde se estimaba el costo eléctrico por producto asignando el 80% del total consumido al área de producción. Resultados. Con la aplicación del método se encontró la cantidad de energía necesaria para producir una unidad de aguardiente en distintas presentaciones; en el área de producción el consumo de energía es fluctuante cada mes, pero su promedio es del 22% del total facturado durante el periodo estudiado. Conclusiones. La estimación de energía teórica tiene un error del 2,4% en comparación con los equipos de medición, por lo que el método desarrollado es apropiado para la implementación práctica.
