One CloudFlow application experiment aims at minimizing energy consumption and noise emissions created by the fan and the cooling airflow of compressors. One of the physical improvements is the reduced fan power consumption from 4kWel to 2,75kWel (>30%). Clients from the experiment partner BOGE will save electricity cost that amounts to about 350,000 euros per year. The design and layout of the splitter-type silencer can be calculated within hours instead of days which also reduces the use of energy.
ESS design MEMS sensor components for commercial high-end applications. Cost savings due to chip area reduction is a major driver. With the CloudFlow portal ESS have access to high quality chip-design tools and can optimize chip size. 5% savings on a relatively small quantity of 1 million of ESS chips originally sized at 1640x1600 um each give approximately 235gr of savings in Si chips. This saves
• 188kg of fossil fuel
• 8.46 kg of chemicals
• 3.76 tons of water
