VSDs - still delivering the best energy-saving solutions

摘要

Steve Brambley, deputy director of GAMBICA, explains how technologies that have been around for many years, such as variable speed drives, can still deliver some of the most impressive energy savings. n the emerging low carbon economy, there are many voices suggesting different ways of keeping the energy supply secure and sustainable. As a result, the simple variable speed drive (VSD) message is in danger of being smothered by renewable energy debates, nuclear generation concerns, smart grids, feed-in tariffs and a pethora of blue-sky, out-of-the-box, wheel-reinventions.
