Achieving the best outcomes for members and customers

Always an opportunity to save energy

At BCAS, we believe there is always an opportunity to save energy. With energy costs having risen by 50% (and higher in some instances) in recent months the more customers can do to improve the efficiency of their compressed air system, the more opportunities there are for cost savings.

Our BCAS members have a key role to play in helping our customers to mitigate for these rising costs by advising on the numerous ways that they can improve the energy performance of their equipment.

A compressed air system is just that; a system, and every element of it impacts on its energy consumption. Therefore, when exploring the potential savings that could be realised, it is important to take a full, system approach, – from generation to air treatment to distribution and finally, the point of use.

The BCAS 10% Taskforce campaign sets out to achieve precisely this. Working with our members, this valuable resource at taskforce10.bcas.org.uk sets out some of the straightforward ways to save energy consumption from compressed air systems and minimise avoidable waste.

In doing so, industry can make considerable overhead, and carbon footprint savings alongside a significant contribution to bottom line profitability and environmental performance.

Looking to the future

As I mentioned at the start of this article, I’m joining BCAS at an exciting time, where the actions our team, and our wider membership take can have a positive and lasting impact on compressed air system efficiency. Whether it’s helping save end-users cost, improving safety or ensuring compliance, BCAS has a vital role to play in our industry and I’m excited for what the future holds
