Business case for industrial DSM maintenance
Abstract
The performance of industrial DSM projects often deteriorates without proper maintenance. Underperforming DSM projects waste money and increase the demand for electricity from Eskom. A solution to this problem is dedicated maintenance on industrial DSM projects. This ensures maximum performance and maximum electricity cost savings. In this paper, the business case for industrial DSM maintenance is presented. Results show that the benefits significantly outweigh the cost of DSM maintenance
