Abstract

Increasing energy cost and concern about global climate change highlight the need to realize energy self-sufficient in water distribution and treatment plant. A study on energy performance was conducted at Syarikat Air Melaka Berhad (SAMB) specification at Loji Air Bertam at Melaka to identify the most energy consumption system and proposed a method to reduce the energy consumption and to increase the system efficiency. Energy self-sufficient water system plant have been studied to reduce operation costs, energy consumption and system efficiency. By analysing the existing system in SAMB, the most energy contribution system is identified. After analysing the transformer's load distribution and energy consumption, the inefficient performance of transformer is because of the low amount of load running by each transformer. The role of transformer is to step down the voltage and provide isolation between primary and secondary. High distribution voltage levels is then passed through distribution transformer before going down to end-use levels. The programming language used in this study is Matlab. By doing analysis on effect load on transformer, combination of load is a great way to achieve energy savings as the efficiency is increase. Future recommendation is proposed in this project
