The Situation
In the competitive world of luxury hospitality, one renowned hotel chain in India stands out for its extraordinary guest service and opulent accommodations. With properties in major cities and popular tourist spots, this brand has become synonymous with elegance and comfort.
However, the hotel was facing significant challenges with its outdated pump system. The existing pump, operating inefficiently at 15.3 kW/hr, consumed a staggering 134,028 kW annually. This inefficiency stemmed from the lack of a proper controller and reliance on a pressure switch, which resulted in excessive energy use and inconsistent pressure delivery. Moreover, the old pump system emitted 87.38 metric tonnes of CO₂ per year, posing a major obstacle to the hotel’s sustainability goals.
Our Hydro MPC-E system cut energy use by 65.7 MW /year and reduced CO₂ emissions to 44.45 mT tonnes, ensuring both sustainability and a swift ROI of 2 years.
The Solution
Grundfos conducted a thorough energy audit and engaged in detailed discussions with the consultant and hotel engineering team. Based on the findings, advanced Hydro MPC-E booster system was proposed. this is specifically designed to regulate both pressure and flow with precision.
The new system consisted of 4X CRE 10-5 pumps with 5.5 kW IE5 motors, equipped with a built-in controller and Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), delivering a substantial improvement in efficiency. By implementing this solution, the hotel was able to align with its sustainability goals, reduce energy usage, and lower CO₂ emissions, making strides toward a greener and more efficient operation.
The Outcome
The implementation of the Hydro MPC CRE system has yielded exceptional results for the hotel. The establishment has achieved a substantial annual energy savings of 65.75 MWh, alongside a significant reduction in carbon emissions amounting to 44.45 metric tons per year.
With the innovative and efficient solutions provided by Grundfos, the hotel realized a return on investment (ROI) in just 2.3 years. These advancements not only facilitated the hotel in meeting its ambitious sustainability objectives but also underscored its commitment to minimizing environmental impact.
