Write: Mandu [2011-05-20]
Recently, Baosteel Co. Ltd. Has passed National Energy Management System Certification, which has demonstrated Baosteel's Three Flows, One Status energy control & management system has run scientifically and efficiently and gained sound social and economic profits. It is also positive to improve energy management level.

With the rapid development of economy and steel capacity, energy scarcity and high cost have become the bottle neck to the development of steel corporations. During China's eleventh five-year plan, full play is given to energy saving and emission reduction, so that the energy utilization is further limited for steel corporations. In order to increase energy efficiency and reduce energy cost. The relevant state ministries and commissions have initiated National Energy Management System Certification Pilot among steel corporations, when Baosteel is one of them.

Baosteel gives full play to its expertise in system and energy management. Based on summary and self-examination, Baosteel has developed energy management and control system in 2008 and expanded its application in each business units. This system is cored as Three Flows One Status (energy flow, manufacturing flow, value flow and equipment status), formulating Who Uses, Who Manages duty system through identification and control on field energy resources. Through identification and control on energy efficiency factors, tremendously improving the controllable degree of energy efficiency so that energy management is extended from energy system to every aspect of energy efficiency. In order to continuously raise the efficiency, Baosteel has established full-step energy using regulations during shut-down as control measures of energy consumption sources, which has effectively avoided invalid energy consumption. Baosteel energy energy management and control system has realized the fundamental transformation from traditional energy index to energy value, as well as from result-oriented to process-oriented, when on-line energy management and control efficiency is fully demonstrated.

Baosteel energy management control system is rich in content, including 6 main function modules, 3 on-line information management system: energy saving target control, identification and control on energy efficiency factors, identification and control on energy consumption source, energy measurement and statistics, energy professional auditing, energy saving technology and projects, energy management analysis and decision support system, energy value management system, energy measuring equipment information system. The whole system is integrated into Baosteel comprehensive management system.

During over 2 years' running, remarkable outcomes have been made in improving energy utilizing efficiency and reducing energy cost for Baosteel energy management and control system, which has made due contributions for Baosteel to fulfill eleventh five-year plan energy saving target. From 2009 to 2010, the energy cost of Baosteel has been reduced by 1 billion RMB on the year-on-year basis for the consecutive 2 years. The energy consumption in blast furnace, steel making, hot rolling, etc is reduced on the year-on-year basis for the consecutive 2 years.

Certifying authority considers that the successful practice of Baosteel energy management control system is the exploration and innovation on the management methodology of steel corporation, with unique Baosteel characteristics. It not only brings about substantial economic profits, but also set up a mirror for metallurgical peers to improve energy management level, with strong practical and promotion values.
