Energy Saving

Yihai Kerry strictly complies with the relevant laws and regulations in the places of operation,continuously strengthens energy management under the Company's Environmental Policy,and continuously monitors energy consumption through its data-management platform. The Group uses information technology to effectively manage energy data. We established the PIMS data monitoring system and the Enablon data statistics platform to track and record the energy consumption data in our factories. The energy management team regularly analyses and evaluates these energy consumption data and makes relevant recommendations to the factories for improvement. 

 

In 2022, the Group has realized the visualization of energy consumption and carbon emission data at multiple levels, including the Group, factories, production lines, etc., which enables online monitoring of energy indicators, regular analysis and evaluation, and prompts the direction of energy saving and carbon reduction.


We encourage all factories to establish energy management systems under the ISO 50001 standard to improve their energy management. At the end of the 2022, 44.2% of the Group's factories had obtained energy management system certification, and we will continue to increase the proportion of factories with energy management system certification in the future.

 

Energy-saving initiatives
Continuous Energy-saving Actions Administrative office energy-saving measures
  • All factories are encouraged to carry out energysaving actions every year to reduce energy consumption and improve energy efficiency.
  • In 2022, 69.5% of the Group's operating production companies, including core plants, carried out energy saving and carbon reduction programs.
  • Through energy-saving methods such as waste heat recovery, replacement of high-efficiency equipment, installation of LED lighting fixtures, and installation of variable frequency regulators, , a total of 194 energy-saving projects (including the continuation of the project in 2021) have been implemented, with an estimated total investment of about 220 million RMB, which is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by about 168,000 tons of CO2e.
  • Control the use of lights, air conditioners and ventilaters.
  • Set freezer temperatures at a reasonable level to reduce energy consumption.
  • Monitor water quality, and clean the filters in heat exchangers and air conditioner regularly.
  • Set the air-conditioners in energy-saving mode.
  • Add blackout curtains to reduce the load on air conditioners.
  • Adopt LED energy-saving lamps for the lighting system.
  • Adopt automatic sensor controls for parking lot lighting.
  • Turn off lights and air conditioners in unoccupied places.
