ndrew Robinson, Managing Director of weld overlay cladding and fabrication specialist Arc Energy Resources, has joined the advisory board of the National Skills Academy for Nuclear (NSAN), with a view to helping companies that want to be involved in the nuclear sector and are currently working on their nuclear skills agenda.
Says Andrew: “NSAN is concerned there may not be sufficient ‘nuclear sector’ skills in UK engineering, and the Academy has been formed to help redress the problem. The more we looked at the training available, the more we felt this was an organisation we would like to be involved with. We had made contact with them at a couple of conferences and they then emailed me with an opportunity to get more involved and to become a member of the NSAN advisory board. For manufacturers the board considers topics ranging from what employers want, to what is actually lacking, so it is a useful facility to have.”
The unit has an extensive range of online courses available to help interested companies.
This includes NS4P - an online nuclear skills matrix that companies and their employers can log onto, to work towards a nuclear passport.
Membership also gives Arc Energy Resources access to companies such as Cavendish Nuclear, BA Systems, the MOD, Babcock and Rolls Royce, as well as all the nuclear operators out there, and as Andrew says: “For manufacturers like ourselves it is really helpful to be around a table with companies such as these, discussing the issues we are collectively facing. Nuclear has a great deal of potential for us and I believe Arc Energy Resources really has an important role to play.”

Does your energy monitoring system give you the full picture?
A
s new equipment is added to a rack within your facility, the result is often that contracted supply ratings are exceeded
which, in turn, causes an outage or a loss of redundancy. Having an inbuilt monitoring system will provide the precise capacity and load of each rack, allowing Facilities Managers to make informed decisions – resulting in an uninterrupted performance. One such system – the Socomec Diris Digiware - brings together digital electrical measuring technology – from sensors to software - monitoring several circuits via a single current measurement module.
Compact and quick to install, it provides the industry’s most accurate and effective metering, measurement and monitoring of electrical energy quality.

Rexel rolls out Rolec GroupManager A
www.socomec.co.uk Infinitely scalable, it is
capable of monitoring thousands of connection points and is able to accurately attribute cost at a rack level into legacy facilities.
Bringing the best from commercial boilers
s a business dedicated to driving forward the electric vehicle (EV) market, Rexel UK has introduced the new Rolec GroupManager – platform to allow users to effectively manage multiple private electric vehicle charging units. The first of its kind from Rolec, the remote management system is designed to provide full visibility and control across an entire charging network, including off-site units. The platform offers live data reporting for charging point usage, which is a particularly helpful monitoring tool for large organisations looking at fleet electric vehicle use and overall operational energy costs. Another key feature is the electricity load balancing system, designed to manage and co-ordinate incoming electricity supplies when the collective charging point potential exceeds the electricity supply available. The system incorporates a bank level security payment system, utilising a roaming GPRS signal that is compatible with all networks - searching for the strongest available signal at charging point location. The software can be easily updated remotely, all while ensuring effective data backup.

aul Sands, Sales and Marketing Director at Stokvis Energy Systems, considers the options for improving boiler efficiency in new and refurbishment situations. Within the commercial market today, approximately 70% of boilers from 30KW and higher are wall hung. Wall-hung boilers are often installed as a cascade of three or more units which not only means maintenance can be carried out without interruption of service, it also allows the duty to be shared. Interestingly most condensing boilers offer slightly better efficiency when running at a percentage of their potential output; which can be taken advantage of in a cascade arrangement. While figures vary between different boiler ranges, a model which delivers 102% net efficiency at 100% capacity might see this rise to 106% net when running at 25% capacity; this increase resulting from the lower volume of flue gas passing over the heat exchanger.
