Millipore uses compressed air everywhere from injection molding, robotics, automation, and pneumatics. Many are validated GMP process. We have a connected load of air compressors totaling ca. 2,000 horsepower (in total) at the four factories. After two years of demand-side projects where we have reduced the energy consumption of the compressed air systems by 2 million KWH and saved over $270,000.
