A EnergyCAP Case Study
Slaney Foods International, a beef processing business in Co. Wexford, faced limited visibility into energy use across its ultra‑modern facility, making it hard to manage consumption in key areas like effluent treatment, livestock processing and refrigeration. EnergyCAP was engaged to provide an energy management solution, deploying multi‑meter monitoring with 3G communications and an online dashboard to give plant operators actionable insight into electricity use.
EnergyCAP’s solution revealed major consumers and guided the installation of Variable Speed Drives on refrigeration condenser fans, cutting condenser fan energy use by 61% and reducing daily average fan costs from €19.02 to €7.36. EnergyCAP’s dashboard and reports also delivered real‑time alerts, Energy Performance Indicators and targeted wastage identification, enabling Slaney Foods International to quantify savings and identify further energy conservation measures.
