Encorp Teams with Kmart
To reduce overall energy costs at the Kmart store in Linden, New Jersey, Kmart officials asked Encorp and Elektryon engineers to install a peak-shave and standby-power system. The site includes three Elektryon 100kw natural-gas POWR/MASTR's that each incorporate Encorp's Automatic Parallel Switch. In addition, to parallel with the utility, the site includes a Cutler-Hammer Softload ATS that features an Encorp Utility Power Control™.
Kmart's system operates in standby mode throughout most of the year, but during hot summer months, when peak loads are highest, the site operates in parallel with the utility. Using Encorp's capacity management software, the APS on each genset automatically starts the generators each weekday morning and then shuts them off at night. In addition, technicians use Encorp's Virtual Maintenance Monitor™ software to remotely monitor and troubleshoot the three gensets from an off-site dispatch center.
