EVALUATING
INDUSTRIAL TRANSFORMER EFFICIENCY
Industrial
Transformer Purchases on a Simple
Payback Basis Industrial and commercial
customers who own their transformers
and pay for electricity on a per unit
basis can easily calculate the operating
cost of their transformers and thus,
determine how long it takes to recover
the price premium associated with
the purchase of higher-efficiency
transformers. Since the payback period
for AMDTs is relatively short, the
simple payback method provides a good
approximation:
A
simple payback calculation demonstrates
that for a wide range of price premiums
- the energy savings result in a relatively
short payback period for AMDTs.
