Guardian Glass, a leading glass manufacturer, was facing a challenge with its power reliability and efficiency. The company's 750,000-square-foot plant in Dewitt, Iowa operates a furnace at 2,800 ºF to pull approximately 700 tons of glass per day, every day, around the clock. The furnace is critical to the plant’s operation and any shutdown is unacceptable. However, the plant suffered a capacitor bank failure that caused the plant’s power factor to drop below the threshold where the company could claim valuable credits on its monthly energy bills. The loss of savings from the credits persisted for more than two years. Guardian Glass needed to improve its power factor over 95% to receive a monthly credit on utility bills.
