Video: How Nestlé reduced its energy use by 36% per tonne of product

This video explains the £1.9B p.a. energy saving opportunity available to UK manufacturers and how Nestlé has made substantial energy efficiency improvements.

Despite ongoing improvements in energy use, the Next Manufacturing Revolution study* identified Energy Efficiency as a major opportunity for UK manufacturers worth:

• £1.9B p.a. in cost savings
• 19.2 MtCO₂e in greenhouse gas emission savings
• 3,500 new skilled full time jobs

This video describes:

1. How leading companies have saved up to 70% of their energy use through four different types of energy efficiency initiatives
2. How Nestlé has reduced its energy use by 36% per tonne of product since 2006 in UK and Ireland plants, with more savings on the way.

* The Next Manufacturing Revolution study available here was co-authored by Lavery/Pennell, the University of Cambridge’s Institute for Manufacturing and 2degrees.
