Use of inverters in hydraulic lifts has decreased energy consumption, allowed smaller motor sizes and provided good ride performance for heavily used lifts.  Though the general trend in the industry toward lifts with lower energy requirements, use of hydraulic lifts with inverters has not found enough appeal yet.  This is because existing solutions are generally more demanding, rather costly, and requires high level of expertise to maintain. An energy efficient solution is not necessarily the cost-effective solution.  A successful advanced hydraulic solution not only offers good ride-quality, but easy installation and maintainability, high reliability and acceptable cost.  In short, high-tech solutions should not lower advantages of hydraulic elevators.
