Rising energy price and increasing environmental legislation make efficient energy management inevitable to business success in today's global economy.

Today it is no longer sufficient to optimise output, quality and production planning, and energy consumption is becoming a very important factor in the operating cost of textile plants. A sudden increase in energy usage in a production run can push an order easily into red. With ever rising energy price and increasing environmental legislation, efficient energy management has become a critical factor to business success in today's global economy.
