NEEA Previously Funded Initiative: Drive Power
In 1999, clear energy-efficiency data and life cycle analysis information were not available to customers making the decision to repair, rewind or buy new industrial motors. Rewinding a motor keeps operating costs the same or sometimes raises them, while investing money in a more energyefficient model reduces operating costs over the motor’s lifetime. Service centers…
