Environmental performance
plants the thermal energy consumption has remained unchanged at 33 MJ/hl (target
2000:30 MJ/hl). The targets have not been reached. The specific thermal energy con
sumption of the maltings has increased with 14% from 2771 to 3152 MJ/ton (target
2000: 2990 MJ/hl). This is mainly the result of the contribution of the new maltings,
which have a high thermal energy consumption.
Complaints
In 2000 less complaints have been received. The number has decreased from 103 in
1999 to 71 in 2000. The reduction of complaints in Marseille (France) from 32 to 12
especially contributes to this. The large number of complaints in 1999 was caused by
odours from the waste water treatment plant. In 2000 modifications have been exe
cuted which resulted in a decrease in complaints.
Targets
For the coming period (2001-2003) Fleineken has set targets for water, electricity and
thermal energy consumption for breweries, maltings and softdrink production plants,
which aim at a reduction of these consumptions. The targets and data can be found in
the table on page 2.
