Increasing the Energy Efficiency of „EKO ON” Ltd

Proposed action is focused on the implementation of investments towards increasing the energy efficiency of the production process of “ECO ON” company through the execution of a complex of energy efficiency measures proposed by the study on energy efficiency of the production establishment of the company, based in the village of Velkovtci in the Municipality of Gabrovo. The applicant’s main activity includes the production of metal constructions and equipment for stock-breeding farms as the total quantity of energy consumed to provide the manufacturing process in 2015 is estimated to 67 042 kWh. With view of reducing the energy intensiveness of the company’s production activity, optimizing the production costs and increasing the economic effectiveness of the activities, we plan under this project to implement the following 6 basic measures outlined as particular recommendations from the study made on energy efficiency: - Measure 1: Purchase of automatic portal machine for cutting sheet metal; - Measure 2: Purchase of a screw compressor with frequency management and an integrated refrigerating dessicator; - Measure 3: Purchase of a gas lift truck; - Measure 4: Improving the energy characteristics of the company’s buildings area, including Measure 4.1. Replacement of door and window frames; Measure 4.2 - External thermal insulation and Measure 4.3 – Improving the effectiveness of the existing lighting system; - Measure 5: Recovery of waste heat (through fitting of a recovery panel), and - Measure 6: Introduction of and automatic system for monitoring of energy consumption. Proposed energy efficiency measures shall be realized as particular project activities that will result in achieving annul energy savings to the amount of 489 941 kWh, reaching an energy saving ration (ESR) of 62,76 % and respectively saving CO2 emissions with 371.639 tons/year.
