Energy Efficiency Across the Group

Western Europe

In Poland, when extending and modernising the Kasztelan brewery in Sierpc we managed to reduce relative electricity consumption to below 5 kWh per hl and reduce heat consumption in brewing by 30%. The key solutions employed were an energy-efficient upgrade of the brewhouse, hot water integration to avoid surplus and reuse waste heat, a new canning line with additional water reuse and non-electric heating features, and improved heat recovery from compressors and flue gases.

Asia

In the region, we launched an energy efficiency programme targeting boilers, refrigeration and energy waste controls. The initiative consisted of a utility management training course for utility, maintenance and plant managers, a series of energy audits, and the development of action plans at country and regional level.
