Emerson’s semiconductor fabrication plant faced production issues from poor temperature and humidity control, and high energy costs with aging mechanical equipment. One project addressed both problems and created a new opportunity to connect another building to the existing CHW system infrastructure.
New precision control of CHW and HW throughout the facility reduced flow by 50% and the peak cooling load by 20%. Upgrading plant equipment completed the project, reducing total plant kWh consumption by 65%.
