2nd Generation Real Voltage Optimisation

  • 50% more Savings
  • Future proof your Electrical Infrastructure from grid instability

Voltage Optimisation (VO), is a term now frequently used to refer to the well-known energy-saving technique of reducing the electricity voltage supplied to a site, in order to reduce losses in equipment – thereby reducing energy consumption, CO2 emissions and your electricity bill.

It is a win - win proposition because the lifetime of all on site electrical equipment is extended as it will then run at 220 volts, the level it was designed to operate at.

The technology has been widely implemented in UK supermarkets, government buildings, factories and retail stores in recent years, as a means of saving energy in the face of rising power costs and Government Legislation such as the Carbon Reduction Commitment, (CRC).

To date the vast majority of Voltage Optimisation installations have been carried out using simple fixed-ratio voltage-reduction transformers. These fixed-ratio transformers will have a number of factory pre-set step down tap settings, normally 4%, 6%, 8% or 10%, which provide an output voltage directly mirroring the incoming voltage.

Building on this base Ecoadapt have now developed and manufactured alternative technologies for the UK market which provide greater savings but also future proofs your Electrical Infrastructure against grid instability.
