How does an inverter reduce energy consumption?
20/4/2022
Inverters also known as Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs) help match motor speeds to the exact requirements of each application, saving energy and providing improved control.

Yet only 20% of electric motors are controlled by inverters. That's a lot of wasted energy and a much higher amount of carbon emissions produced.
