Mr. Nguyen Van Cong, Director of the Department of Industry and Trade of Tien Giang Province, delivered a speech and inaugurated the seminar.

During the seminar, DAT presented and discussed the content of energy saving and improving production efficiency through solutions such as grid-connected solar power and energy-saving solutions for businesses through control applications for multi-pump systems, fans, boilers, and compressors.

Processing fisheries and textiles is currently a sector that significantly contributes to the industrial production value of Tien Giang Province. Each year, some businesses within this sector inefficiently use energy, resulting in substantial waste. Specifically, depending on the management level of the factories, the type of production line technology, or the product type, energy consumption fluctuates on average from 194 to 2,358 kWh per ton of product. If appropriate energy-saving solutions are applied, businesses are sure to benefit significantly from these measures.

To assist businesses in the fisheries and textile processing industries in implementing energy-saving measures in their units, DAT introduced some common energy-saving solutions:

  • Boilers and Steam Systems: To save energy, businesses should prioritize using the GD200A VFD, which helps boilers achieve high efficiency, stable boiler capacity, and protects motors from phase loss, phase contact, overcurrent, and overvoltage.
  • Lighting Systems: With large spaces, workshops consume a considerable amount of electricity to ensure sufficient lighting. Therefore, businesses need to arrange offices and production areas reasonably, maximizing the use of natural light. In addition, the use of solar energy should be considered to maximize cost savings on monthly electricity consumption.
  • Air Compressor Systems: Operating compressed air systems in manufacturing plants consumes a significant amount of energy with low efficiency. Using the GD200A and GD300-01 VFDs for air compressor systems helps businesses save 10%-30% of electrical energy.
  • Multi-Pump Systems: Using the specialized GD300-16 VFD to control pressure and alternate multi-pump systems helps save 10-20% of electricity costs for plants, ensuring stable output pressure and continuous water supply without voltage drops on the power lines.

Engineers from DAT shared insights during the seminar

Since 2006, the government has approved the National Target Program for Energy Efficiency, and the Ministry and Departments of Industry and Trade are tasked with leading the construction and implementation of the program.

This involves the efficient use of energy through technical management measures to reduce losses and lower energy consumption of vehicles and equipment while still meeting the goals set for the production process.

The seminar discussed the TCVN ISO 50001 standard – the national standard for energy management systems. The purpose of this standard is to help organizations establish the necessary systems and processes to improve energy efficiency, including energy performance, use, and consumption. The application of the standard aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate adverse effects on the environment.

Delegates and business owners in the Fisheries and Textile industries raised questions for discussion, shared experiences with DAT, and enthusiastically learned from the implementation of the energy-saving and efficient use program.

Currently, there are more than 14 Energy Conservation Centers nationwide in provinces and cities, nearly 40 promotion centers, and technology transfer centers. Energy-saving activities have been vigorously implemented by localities, contributing significantly to the success of the National Target Program for Energy Efficiency and Effectiveness.
