EFFICIENT USE OF ENERGY

energy consumption

Improvement of energy consumption in the above graph reflects the ongoing energy conservation program.

In the graph above, our electricity use shows progress in efforts to reduce electricity consumption.

 

ELECTRICITY CONSUMED BY MILL AREA

energy consumption

The above diagram shows the total energy consumed by production process during the 2013-2014 reporting period. Pulp production consumes 57%* while around 2% of the power we generate is sold to the local grid.

energy consumption

We are well within BAT range while we continue to seek ways to reduce heat consumption. Low-pressure steam is a byproduct of electricity generation. We conserve the additional energy present in this steam by using it to dry pulp and paper. Following condensation, water is sent back to our power station where it is reheated into high pressure steam and recycled through our system.
