The commitment is paying off. Since 2017, we have achieved important results such as:
- Reducing our energy intensity by 12% (FY22 vs FY17).
- 76% of our energy comes from renewable sources (FY22: electricity from renewable sources, certified).
- Reducing the intensity of CO2 emissions by 86% (FY22 vs FY17).
In addition, we are also taking action to meet the Barry Callebaut Group's common goal of reducing our carbon footprint to 0 by 2025 and being a "carbon neutral" factory.
- Efficiency improvements (LED, motor efficiency improvement, etc.).
- Substitution of natural gas by heat pumps or sustainable fuels.
- Generation of renewable energy (photovoltaic or PPA).
We work so that, apart from our chocolate, the only thing our Gurb factory produces are tons of smiles.
