Sustainable transport models
Specific material and product flows can be
modelled and measured for their CO₂eq
emissions impact. Thanks to the availability of
detailed information on shipments by road, sea
and train, we can simulate and evaluate
specific improvements - such as increased
efficiency or use of alternative fuels - so we
can decide on network set-up, optimising
loads, and transport modes. In one case, we
were able to model transportation options for
a new product to lower the climate impact by
48%. The approach helped our stakeholders
make improvements. Generally speaking, it will
allow us to find opportunities to reduce the
carbon footprint along our supply chain in
the coming years.
Energy efficiency
Energy-efficiency projects are fundamental to
working simultaneously on climate goals and
energy-supply security. In addition, during
fiscal year 2021/22, we have seen a
progressive increase in energy costs, which
has resulted in the current energy crisis. One of
the first and best tools used to decrease the
impact of the energy crisis and mitigate its
Installing heat-recovery systems.
• Checking thermal piping insulation and
steam traps.
• Installing LED lighting.
•
Replacing and improving refrigeration
and air-compressor units.
Installing high-efficiency motors and
inverters.
Fixing compressed-air leaks.
In addition, during fiscal year 2021/22 the
Alfreton plant in the UK joined the pool of
plants certified ISO 50001. This ISO
certification reinforces our training and
awareness activities, and promotes sensible
energy use and sharing of best practice
among plants.
What have we achieved?
In fiscal year 2021/22, we decreased our
energy-intensity ratio to 7.41 GJ per tonne of
product, and we confirmed a central capital
expenditure programme for reducing our
carbon footprint.
In addition, our total renewable energy
consumption resulted to 23.8%5.
We have targeted investments towards
effects has been energy efficiency. We develop increasing the production of on-site renewable
an energy-efficiency culture and spread it
through awareness, energy audits and
technical studies.
Energy efficiency in our operations
Our factories set local annual targets to
improve energy efficiency, and monitor their
results. Reducing energy consumption means
working on two fronts: making technical
changes while improving individual behaviour
and awareness. During this fiscal year we
have run many projects:
energy and using alternative sustainable fuels.
This year we have commissioned a 0,25 MW
photovoltaic plant (Phase IV) at Baramati
(India) and a new 1 MW photovoltaic plant is
under completion in Stadtallendorf (Germany).
Other photovoltaic plants are expected to be
installed in the next few years at Baramati
(India), Belsk (Poland), Poços de Caldas (Brazil)
and Alzira (Spain) with the scope to increase
the on-site renewable electricity production
across our plants.
We extended our renewable-energy purchases
for Baramati (India) and San José (Mexico). At
the end of fiscal year 2021/22, 18 of our plants
used 100% renewable electricity from the grid,
accounting for around 92% of the electricity
we purchased for all our manufacturing sites
worldwide.
5. Considering the manufacturing sites.
6. We considered the perimeter of 2020/2021. ICFC plants
(Alzira and Castel d'Ario) are out of the scope of this
report and not included in the 18 plants. Both plants
purchased 100% renewable electricity.
