Abstract

The paper describes the glass manufacturing process, the process areas and their energy intensity. The implementation of an energy management system, its operation and participation in the decision-making chain as well as benefits from implementation are also described. The use of regression as a numerical technique for determining energy consumption is presented with reference to the historical experience of the glassworks and its developed trends on the example of gas consumption in the melting process in the glass furnace. The paper compared the deviation of actual energy consumption in the glass melting process to that calculated from linear regression variables for data before and after the implementation of the energy management system. The study confirmed the sensibility of implementing the described managing system. Constant observation and response to factors affecting the running process allows for its stabilization and optimization.
