Spara Demand Control predicts when spikes in energy use are about to occur and takes automatic action to reduce consumption at that time while maintaining strict control over operations. Demand charges can make up as much as 40% of an electricity bill so avoiding these spikes can significantly reduce your overall energy costs.

Because of the ever-changing nature of energy use, as loads turn on and off, spikes in energy can occur at any time, often simply due to the coincidental run-cycles of loads that happen to overlap. Spara’s sophisticated predictive demand functionality identifies these occurrences before they happen and makes the necessary adjustments. Often it is just a matter of slightly delaying or shifting a particular action. This means peak kW is lowered while productivity is unaffected based on total kWh.

Processes are further protected through the use of Embedded Operator Intelligence^TM (EOI). With EOI, Powerit packages the experience of hundreds of energy curtailment and control applications into a library of user-selected rules that, when implemented into matching facility types such as food manufacturing, metals, or commercial buildings, become part of a synchronized, application-specific energy management strategy. Because you set the rules your processes are always protected while savings are maximized.
