Power Factor Correction Unit

At Minetek, we offer cutting-edge power factor correction solutions designed to optimise energy usage, reduce electricity costs, and enhance overall power quality and efficiency.

Enhancing power efficiency

Our power factor correction units are engineered to ensure that the electricity you’re consuming works as efficiently as possible for your operations. Poor power factors result in inefficient power usage, which can significantly impact your bottom line. For example, if your power factor is 0.8, it means you’re only utilising 80% of the power you’re paying for, while still being charged for the full 100%. Our power correction units address this inefficiency by improving the quality of power, allowing it to be utilised more effectively. By increasing efficiency from 80% to 95-99%, every unit of power you purchase is utilised to its full potential.

Real-world impact

Consider a project involving two 630 kW fans collectively consuming 1 megawatt (MW) of power or more. In scenarios like underground ventilation systems, where fans operate 24/7, even a small improvement in power efficiency can lead to significant cost savings over time. By implementing power factor correction and enhancing power efficiency by just 20%, you not only offset the initial investment but also realise substantial savings in operational expenses (OPEX) in the long run.

Maximising returns, minimising Costs

Investing in power factor correction isn't just about optimising energy usage—it's about maximising returns and minimising costs over the long term. Our solutions empower businesses to operate more sustainably, reduce energy wastage, and ultimately achieve greater profitability.
