My factory has an air compressor from Cameroon, and I want to lower the temperature of the cooling water; I’m trying to estimate how much electricity can be saved as a result

My factory has an air compressor from Cameroon with a compressed air production capacity of 52,000 cubic meters per hour. It features three stages of compression; the pressure at the exit of the third stage is 4.5 BARG. The power consumption is 4,100 KW per hour. The temperature of the cooling water used in the first stage is 8.6 degrees, that in the second stage is 3.6 times that of the first stage, and the temperature of the cooling water at the inlet is 2 degrees. I would like to reduce the temperature of the inlet cooling water to 0 degrees. I wonder, experts, how much electricity can be saved as a result.
Has it been resolved? I’d like to see the calculation process
