Molson Coors has reduced its carbon emissions by 6.5% and saved more than £750,000 from the first year of operation of its new energy centre based at its Burton Brewery site in the UK. Through efficiency improvements in steam production, compressed air and refrigeration during the brewing process, Molson Coors has saved 8.3 million kWh of gas and 4.4 million kWh of electricity.

“We’re extremely happy with the progress that has been made as a result of our energy centre. The cost savings made have been utilised and re-invested into our brands, service and breweries,” explains Victoria Segebarth, supply chain director of Molson Coors UK & Ireland. “This has given us the opportunity to delight the world’s beer drinkers and focus on being first choice for customers and consumers, while still keeping our beer print to a minimum.”
