ERICA Boards Installed
ERICA boards help the contractor prevent energy wastage using a power monitoring and control system. The system understands and knows where and when energy is being used and highlights opportunities to prevent energy wastage.
ERICA = Energy, Reduction, Information, Control, Automation.
They have done this by exchanging the generator for more efficient equipment such solar hybrid battery units as well as replacing diesel with HVO fuels or mains electricity where possible.
The power monitoring data enables sites to identify areas where energy is being wasted and the scheduler can be set to turn off heating, lighting & power circuits, when not required.
Effective use of the energy data and scheduler can highlight opportunities for sites to ‘downsize’ generators and maximise battery bank output through load control.
