Carbon Capture is a hot topic for industry. Regardless of a company’s position on the environment, finding ways to report a lower carbon footprint can make a financial impact on the bottom line. Motor reliability reduces a plant’s carbon footprint by decreasing energy consumption through optimized, efficient operation and fewer shutdowns. Increasing reliability means less energy is wasted, fewer motors need replaced, and the number of expensive restart processes is reduced, which lowers greenhouse gas emissions.
