Energy Audit Implementation in Rolling Mills

This Energy Audit report provides a detailed analysis of cost-effective energy efficiency and carbon dioxide emissions reduction opportunities in Rolling Mills. The aim of this report is to upscale energy efficiency interventions in about 300 small and medium-sized steel-rerolling mills in India and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by providing technical assistance and financial incentives. Technical parameters such as productivity, specific fuel consumption, and specific energy consumption were measured, and energy-efficient technologies were suggested and implemented in the Rolling Mill. The post-implementation field study showed a 10% reduction in specific energy consumption, resulting in an annual energy saving of about 127 MJ and 197 tons of carbon dioxide emission reduction. This report successfully demonstrated the adoption of energy-efficient and environmentally friendly technologies in steel re-rolling mills.
