AS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Power Efficiency Corporation (OTCBB: PEFF), a clean tech company focused on efficiency technologies for electric motors, announced today that it has been granted a patent from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for a core algorithm incorporated in its revolutionary E-Save Technology® platform. The patent encompasses the method, system and apparatus for controlling electric motors and optimizing their energy use. Power Efficiency Corporation’s E-Save Technology platform was developed to reduce electric motor energy consumption by matching the power supplied to the motor with its load. Most electric motors are sized for the worst case operating conditions of the equipment it is powering. Since most equipment does not operate constantly at its peak potential load, it is common to see a motor operate at less than 40% of the rated load for significant periods of time. E-Save Technology allows for variation in the load profile and adjusts the amount of energy required to optimize the energy use of the motor. This typically results in energy savings of up to 35% in appropriate applications.
