Improving the Accuracy of Estimating the Power Consumption Efficiency in Industry

Abstract

The peculiarities of application of mathematical models of electricity consumption for estimation of energy use efficiency in enterprises are analyzed. It is determined that enterprises do not always take into account the interconnection of processes taking place in different departments, and as a result, the effectiveness of using mathematical models for both forecasting electricity consumption and assessing consumption efficiency is reduced. It was established that the use of refined mathematical models with a narrowed confidence interval expands the potential for energy saving of the enterprise and prompts a more detailed analysis, the search for additional controlled and uncontrolled factors of influence on the efficiency of electricity consumption.
