Análisis de necesidad para la implementación de un sistema de gestión energética en la Empresa Tecnoesa - Ecuador

Abstract

Energy is essential for development and the economy, the industrial sector constitutes one of the main consumers of energy, in Ecuador several actions have been implemented in the energy sector, since today it is imperative to take actions to reduce consumption, reason why it is necessary to measure its energy performance, the objective of this work is to carry out a study of energy need in the TECNOESA cylinder manufacturing plant by analyzing energy efficiency indicators for the implementation of a management system, therefore that a methodology based on the ISO 50001 standard is followed, in which the facilities are visited, energy consumption data for the year 2018 is collected, an energy review is made, LPG is the most used energy with a 77.5 %, electricity 20.2%. An analysis of electrical energy is carried out, using the base 100 and sumacum index of the first half of the year 2019, it is found that there are two periods of efficiency and a period of inefficiency, the highest specific electricity consumption index is 0.71 kWh / cylinder, in LPG it is necessary to discriminate the uses, both of the heat treatment and drying of the paint, obtaining 0.35 kg / cylinder and 0.40 kg / cylinder respectively, in the use of electrical energy there is a potential of savings made operational changes, in the case of LPG the data is inconclusive and technological improvements should be made, finally it is recommended to perform a SGE based on the ISO 50001 standard, which allows internal comparison of the level of efficiency and propose action plans to improve energy efficiency.
