Pulp and paper mills are among the highest electricity consumers in the industrial sector. Motor loads, pulping equipment, paper machines and drying processes drive continuous high demand. Rodan helps mills turn energy data into operational insight that reduces costs and generates revenue.
Pulp and paper mills operate large motor loads, refiners and compressors that drive significant demand spikes. Rodan helps you anticipate peak events using PeakIQ™ to identify peak risk hours before costs are set. For Ontario Class A customers, ICI costs average approximately $350,000 per MW-year.
Understanding how your major processes consume electricity is critical to managing costs. Through FacilityIQ™, you gain near real-time insight into mill energy consumption so your team can identify what is driving your highest demand moments.
Pulp and paper mills often have identifiable flexibility windows between production runs, during maintenance periods or in ancillary systems that can support demand response programs without disrupting core production. Rodan identifies those windows and manages enrollment, dispatch and settlement.
Rodan develops curtailment plans that work around your continuous process requirements, shift patterns and critical equipment so load reductions never compromise pulp quality, paper machine performance or recovery boiler operations.
Electricity prices and grid conditions shift constantly. MarketIQ™ provides visibility into pricing signals and grid conditions that affect your energy costs in Ontario's IESO market.
Rodan's in-house power systems engineers understand the technical complexity of mill electrical systems including high-voltage distribution, motor protection and grid interconnection. From arc flash studies to connection impact assessments, Rodan supports the full scope of mill electrical engineering requirements.
