British American Tobacco - reducing annual energy consumption by £1.02m
British American Tobacco (BAT) has large industrial sites worldwide and needs an experienced energy auditing team to undertake energy audits across their sites. The audits aimed to discover energy usage patterns and correlations, optimise energy systems’ operational philosophy, identify energy and carbon saving opportunities, and support them with carbon-neutral targets.
Challenge
Energy & Technical Services agreed to undertake the works just before the global pandemic struck, which then eliminated the possibility of visiting the BAT sites to undertake the audit works. It was then agreed that Energy & Technical Services would undertake the works using remote technology and transferring critical data to support the process.
Results
Energy & Technical Services used multi-variable regression analysis to provide BAT with a formula to benchmark their energy usage and flag excess energy consumption in real-time. We calculated the annual energy cost for all significant energy-consuming equipment. We provided options for a staged retrofit program for their ageing equipment, which improved resilience and reduced energy consumption. Finally, we provided the client with options for reducing annual energy consumption by £1.02m, delivering additional stakeholder value of £6.1m over ten years, and identified concepts for deep Scope 1 (fossil fuel) carbon savings.
