Frequently Asked Questions
What is Electrical Efficiency?
An abundance of ideas have come to our attention to address the National Energy Crisis. “Renewables”, like Solar, Wind, Wave, Natural Gas and Bio-fuels, are discussed most often, and they can be part of the answer. Wouldn’t it make sense to make the electrical equipment we currently use operate more efficiently? Addressing electrical consumption before adding Renewables is the common-sense solution-- at a fraction of the cost.
How can I reduce my Carbon Footprint?
Reducing electrical consumption reduces your Carbon Footprint because you reduce the demand on the Electrical Grid. The result to you is a lower electric bill.
Why haven't we heard about this before?
This technology is not new. Power Companies have been Installing capacitor banks to inductive loads for years. When the cost of the kilowatt was low, it was not cost effective to correct the power factor of motors. With energy costs escalating and natural resources dwindling, it makes sense to do whatever is needed to improve the way we consume power. The KVAR Energy Savings Device is U.S. Patented, UL Listed and NASA Tested, with certifications from RoHS, Cleaner-Greener, and CSA. The product is manufactured and installed in compliance with Article 460 of the National Electric Code.
Can I save energy in my Home?
Your home will see a 6-10% guaranteed savings at the meter immediately after installing a KVAR unit. The typical NJ home saves 12% off the annual electric bill, about $240 a year.
What do the Power Companies think of KVAR?
Installing Kvar on your home Circuit Breaker panel saves you money. Programs offered from the Power Companies.
Are there applications for Commercial facilities?
Using the Patented sizing apparatus, measurements are taken to custom size units to larger motor loads to optimize savings. Commercial installations will typically see 6-17% savings and Industrial facilities will see 6-25% or more savings. The cost and the amount of savings vary with the size of each unit, and have a 5 year warranty. With the current cost of power, our projects have had an average pay-back period of less than 2 years.
Why can't Motors have Power Factor Correction built in at their Manufacture?
