Title: Pump System Upgrade Saves Energy and Increases Efficiency at a Wastewater Treatment Plant

Program Document ·
OSTI ID:1216018

This project increased the efficiency of the plant's major pumping system, resulting in projected annual energy and maintenance savings of $71,000 and 475,000 kWh, which represents 10% of the electricity used by that process. With a total cost of $188,000, and a $15,000 grant from the California Energy Commission, the simple payback is just over 26 months.
