Energy Savings

First in Energy Efficiency Since 1920

The history of energy efficiency in industrial motors is really the story of ABB Motors and Mechanical Inc. For the past eight decades, we have led the industry in developing products that deliver greater performance and reliability while using less electricity. From the company’s founding in the 1920s through today, we have introduced efficiency enhancing advancements one after another. In fact, many of the advancements initiated by us have later been adopted as industry standards.
The issue of energy efficiency for electric motors and drives is becoming increasingly relevant as electricity costs continue to rise.

Total System Efficiency – Bringing the Best Together

Did you know that electric motors generate more than 60% of the total industrial demand for power? Specifying a Super-E motor is a significant step in improving your energy efficiency, however, take it one step further. Combine our  Super-E motors with matched V*S Drives and our high-efficiency Dodge gearing products. By creating an energy-matched package, you not only get the power you need, but you can also increase efficiency levels up to 95% and save even more!

Become more energy conscious and partner with us; let our products, services, and expertise help you improve efficiency and save money.

We can supply NEMA 3-phase motors that meet the increased energy efficiency demands required by the Energy Independence and Security Act. This legislation, which became mandatory on December 19, 2010, established stringent new efficiency standards for a broad range of 3-phase motors, including explosion proof, severe duty and brake motors, with horsepower ratings from 1 through 500 HP. We also offer motors complying with the DOE Small Motor Rule that went into effect March 9, 2015 and is constantly working on our product portfolio to ensure compliance to government regulations in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and other countries where standards are set for motor efficiency and electrical safety.
