Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

KEY PRINCIPLES
Understand your bills Understand your equipment Monitor your consumption Have a Plan Train your staff (and yourself if needed)

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

UNDERSTANDING BILLS
Do

you ? Ltr, M, kWh, kVa, MIC, MDLV, Tuos, Duos.. Cost vs Consumption what do you control? Penalties, surcharges, excesses do you have any? Why? Oil, LPG, Mains/Natural Gas ok - !Gas! Electricity very difficult no explanations on websites very poor service

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

UNDERSTAND BILLS
All

Energy

Average Unit Price Divide total bill (net of VAT) by total units (Day+Night) = AUP then compare with similar size business Actual or Estimated make sure you notify monthly Can you access on-line meter readings examine consumption
especially when closed

Get supplier to explain your bill to you in detail and the elements you can manage

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

UNDERSTAND YOUR EQUIPMENT

Who controls your equipment?

You, your staff or Its always been that way

Create a list of all energy using equipment Decide when they will be on/off Train your staff Enforce it Give feedback

MONITOR CONSUMPTION

You cannot Manage if you dont Measure What do you currently measure ? Energy ? Waste ? Water ? Minimum Monthly, better weekly better on-line What about sub-metering 20%

MONITOR CONSUMPTION
Waste - What happened in December

Water -What happened here? possibly a leak

HAVE A PLAN
Dont leave it to chance One off campaigns lose their effectiveness If its not written down, it wont happen

Keep it simple keep it short make sure its attainable Resource it time is the key resource Focus on no/low cost

TRAIN YOUR STAFF

How can they deliver if you dont show/tell them? Include Energy, waste, water into regular training sessions Provide information/feedback to show how they effect performance/costs Link work with home

INEFFICIENT

LIGHTING

A heater and a light 80-90% of energy going to waste!

Low Cost

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

INEFFICIENT

LIGHTING

Excess double the amount required No cost take away 50%

T8s 24/7

MACHINE REPLACEMENT
Woodlands Hotel Adare

Replaced old dishwasher

New dishwasher- Lease cost 19,500/ annum over 5 years

Savings
Electricity Hot Water Chemicals Breakages Labour

Savings Annual savings (Year 1 to 5 ) = 33,500 Annual savings (Year 5+) = 53,000 ++ Think about your equipment.how old, how efficient

EQUIPMENT LEFT ON ALL THE TIME

Kitchen - Cork
Operating 2 Bain Maries ( 9KWhr) for 16 hrs each day

Reviewed need for this practise

Trained staff to turn off and use for 8 hrs/ day Savings - 2, 000 / annum

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

CHEAP EQUIPMENT

What does cheap equipment do?

Reduces capital/leasing requirements Short term solution

Increases whole of life costs Reduced life Inefficient Stupid but sometimes necessary then manage it!

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

POORLY SIZED EQUIPMENT

Cafe Restaurant
Operating a Rotary Toaster 2.3KWhr) for 14hrs each day ( Supplemented toaster with Pop Up Toaster

Savings - 1, 400 / annum

Reducing Costs Waste, Water, Energy BeGreen Workshops 2012

CASE STUDIES - LESSONS

Many savings result from changes in practices, procedures, habit Break the bad habits Challenge your existing practices Target the quick, no cost savings Use some of the savings to pay for actions that need some money

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS KPIS

Allows you to measure your performance over time

?? heating consumption Feb 2012 vs Feb 2011

kWh/M, kWh/unit of production, kWh/employye hour etc.does your industry have them? Could be compared against similar businesses
