Energy Consumption Calculator for Material Handling Systems
In this era of lean and green supply chains, distribution experts focus on cost savings and sustainable behavior, respectively. More than ever, engineers and business leaders are taking an extended view of the energy requirements of planned material handling systems and including those results in their cost justification and net carbon footprint.

HK Systems, in conjunction with business partners and clients, has developed a simple yet innovative tool to calculate the expected energy requirements of a material handling system design. This Excel-based calculator allows the user to select among a wide variety of equipment, environment and building elements to approximate the expected annual utilization in kWh as well as dollars. The tool also facilitates the comparison of two different designs so the user can contrast the annual costs and uncover projected inefficiencies.
