Cut the cost of compressed air equipment
Compressed air has had a long history of use in the Australian business sector, but many people are unaware that it uses up a large amount of power.
Up to 10% of energy used by Australia’s manufacturing sector goes on powering compressed air equipment and tools.[1]
With such significant and expensive energy use, there is a great deal of potential to save money through energy efficiency initiatives. This is important as many compressed air systems have a low energy energy efficiency and often leak.
When you optimise and upgrade your compressed air equipment and reduce compressed air usage, it’s estimated that savings of 20-50% in running costs are achievable.[2]
