Roctel
2020
CHP Power generation provided by 2 x 1.5MW Caterpillar generator sets
ProPhase completed a grid-isolated project for Roctel in Guelph, Ontario. Roctel Manufacturing is a division of Linamar, and manufactures parts for the automotive industry in an environmentally responsible manners.
This energy project can transition between grid supply and utility supply to take advantage of Global Adjustment rates and displaces load from the grid at peak times by switching to on-site natural gas generation power supply. The facility is 127,888 sq. ft. and carries the ISO 450001 and ISO 140001 certifications.
Two Caterpillar 1.5MW containerized generator sets were installed.
The project interfaces with the utility since metering regulations in Ontario require the generation be revenue metered for Gross Load Billing (GLB). Additionally, SCADA interface to the utility allows the utility to observe when the facility is “islanded” from the grid, as well as facility generation and load data.
Identifying specific needs for communication and data systems, electrical installations, power generation, and building automation systems.
Making sure project managers and key stakeholders align on project goals, timelines, and expectations.
For each aspect of the project, ProPhase’s team consisted of experts in their respective fields to ensure high-quality work.
Maintaining a clean safety record and ensuring the wellbeing of all workers and Roctel’s employees.
By scheduling during nighttime and off-hours, ProPhase reduces any impact on Roctel’s operations and customer experience.
Our 4 challenges faced during the project include:
Synchronizing the installation and integration of communication and data systems, electrical systems, power generation, and building automation systems across multiple locations.
Ensuring that the installations and upgrades did not disrupt Roctel’s daily operations and customer experience.
Maintaining high standards of safety and efficiency throughout the project to meet Roctel’s operational and regulatory requirements.
Adhering to strict project timelines to ensure that each store was operational as per the schedule.
ProPhase installed robust communication and data infrastructure, ensuring reliable connectivity and data flow across the store locations. This included fiber optic cabling, network setup, and data center installations.
Comprehensive electrical systems were installed, including lighting, power distribution, and emergency power systems. ProPhase’s attention to detail ensured that all installations met Target’s high standards for safety and reliability.
Energy-efficient cogeneration systems were implemented to provide stable and cost-effective power. These systems not only reduced energy costs but also contributed to a lower carbon footprint, aligning with Target’s sustainability goals.
Advanced building automation systems were installed to optimize energy usage, enhance security, and improve overall operational efficiency. These systems provided real-time monitoring and control over various building functions.
We partnered with Roctel to install a cogeneration system that provided reliable energy at a reduced cost while reducing emissions into the atmosphere.
The integration of advanced communication and data systems streamlined operations, reducing downtime and enhancing overall efficiency.
The cogeneration systems significantly reduced energy costs, providing a stable power supply and supporting Roctel’s sustainability initiatives.
ProPhase’s meticulous approach to electrical installations ensured a reliable and safe power infrastructure, minimizing the risk of outages and accidents.
The cogeneration system provided Roctel with reliable, stable power to their facilities, resulting in better energy management and security.
Before concluding the project, ProPhase ensures that all systems are fully operational and meet the client’s expectations:
Performing extensive testing of all systems to ensure they function correctly and efficiently.
Offering training sessions for Roctel’s staff to ensure they are well-versed in operating and maintaining the new systems.
Conducting a final review with Roctel’s management to confirm satisfaction and officially hand over the project.
ProPhase’s commitment to excellence extends beyond project completion:
Providing post-installation support and maintenance to ensure long-term reliability and performance of the installed systems.
Encouraging feedback from Roctel to continually improve services and address any future needs promptly.
