Fuel economy and ROI analysis

As the head-to-head tests demonstrate, the Variable Speed Generator saves fuel, reduce CO² emission, reduce maintenance cost and noise emission. This document presents the return on your investment.

Savings

Total savings will depend primarily on the following factors: ! Cost of fuel ! Load factor (time spent at 100% load, 50% load, 25% load, etc.)

Table 1 provides two load profile examples (prime power 24 hour/day usage) where load varies throughout a given day, week or month:

Power Required Time spent at a given load

Profile 1 Profile 2

0% 0% 0%

10% 0% 55%

25% 15% 25%

50% 40% 10%

75% 40% 10%

100% 5% 0%

Load Factor 59.5% 33.6%

Table 1: Load profiles of two prime power applications

Profile 1* is a typical construction site load for an industrial generator. Profile 2** is a typical load found in the oil & gas industry, where the generator is powering 3 pump-jacks of 30hp each. The table below demonstrates the fuel consumption of the two units used for this comparison:
