A leaky, wasteful or inefficient compressed air system costs you money. One 1/8” hole can cost you up to $2,000 in wasted energy costs each year. Most of the money you spend on your compressed air system is on energy, not equipment, as shown below. Therefore, it makes sense to buy the most-efficient equipment available, and find and fix leaks and waste before they blow your profits.

Compressed Air Efficiency features two steps to help you identify and implement ways to save on energy for compressed air.

Step 1 – Diagnosis
The study includes:
|
Step 2 – Implementation
- Earn rebates for equipment updates or system improvements that result in lower energy use or higher production from your system
- Customers who participate in a preapproved Compressed Air Efficiency study or whose system is under 50 horsepower can receive up to $200 per kW saved
- Customers who choose not to participate in an Xcel Energy-funded study can receive up to $50 per kW saved
-
Preapproval is required prior to equipment purchase and installation
