Power Factor vs. Consumption Invoice
Power Factor vs. Consumption Invoice
(OP)
Hello Everyone,
I have a query regarding the monthly invoice vs. power factor for industrial complex. The electricity provider accepted a power factor of 0.85 lagging at the connection point. The charging tariff will be for watt only, and at a fixed rate regardless of peak time... etc.
The question I have, what saving will be to the monthly consumption invoice if complex operated at 0.85 lagging instead of 0.95?
Fyi, plant loads are mostly induction motors + EAF's
Thanks in advance for your support.

RE: Power Factor vs. Consumption Invoice
As for your EAF loads, I need more information before commenting on the impact of the Energy Availability Factor on your power invoice.
