Pinch analysis is a powerful tool for energy optimization and reducing CO₂ emissions in industry.
Many companies today are confronted with rising energy costs and face the challenge of reducing their CO₂ emissions while securing their energy supply in the long term. This particularly affects companies in energy-intensive industries.
It makes strategic sense to reduce energy requirements in a first step with economically viable measures and then only provide the remaining non-savings-based energy requirements from the utility system.
The pinch analysis is a valuable tool to:
- systematically analyze and transparently present the energy balance of companies,
- determine the energy-saving potential,
- identify the "maximum" energy-saving potential,
- conceptually develop measures to increase efficiency and optimize the energy supply
- and to evaluate these measures economically.
