ENERGY CONSERVATION STRATEGIES OF A SPINNING MILL

India, despite being one of the largest producers of electrical energy in the world is facing a deficit of electrical energy against its exponentially growing demand. Energy audit is one of the methods to conserve the energy such that to reduce the gap between supply and demand. This paper highlights the energy audit conducted at Energy audit had been conducted in one of the leading textile mill, which is located in northern part of Andhra Pradesh. The audit has estimated energy saving potential of the spinning mill by suggesting cost effective measures. The estimated energy saving potential, Green house gas emission reduction, implementation cost and payback period for different energy conserving alternatives are accounted in this paper.
