Voltage optimisation is a complex word for a simple solution for lower energy costs and carbon emissions. Powerstar is one of the world leaders in voltage optimisation technology and is offering a free webinar on Wednesday, 12 February,  to help businesses understand what it can do for them.


Voltage optimisation involves both the reduction and stabilisation of incoming electricity supply voltage to a level that the equipment in the building requires.

This provides three key benefits:

    lower energy costs

    reduced carbon emissions

    an improvement in the useful life of operating equipment

The average savings are between 12-15 per cent per annum. Currently, a short payback period is also provided.

The webinar explains how individual businesses can reduce operating costs and improve energy efficiency. Its keynote speakers deliver best practice examples and describe how worsening power quality issues affect business negatively. It explains the sustainability opportunities available to various businesses and allows individuals to have their questions answered by industry experts.

Each voltage optimisation system is tailored to the needs of the business, so that optimum savings and returns on investment are obtained in all cases. Typical payback periods are 3-5 years with 100 per cent reliability and no recorded failures. Verified savings are 100 per cent guaranteed.


The webinar on 12 February runs from 9-10am (AEST). Sam Czyczelis, general manager of Powerstar Australia is hosting the webinar and will explain why voltage optimisation is a technology that business and industry should consider as part of their energy saving measures in 2014.

“Voltage optimisation provides a proven and reliable way to reduce energy consumption, lower carbon emissions and save on electricity costs. The webinar is ideal for those considering valid energy saving technologies to form part of their own sustainability strategies or for energy industry experts looking to offer proven and reliable solutions to their clients.”
