Within a year of joining the EII, Famz Foods started reducing its energy use and developed an action plan with details on becoming more energy efficient. The main ingredients in its recipe for energy efficiency are upgrades to lighting; refrigeration; controls; and heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC). After its plan is fully implemented, Famz Foods hopes to reduce its annual energy consumption by 20 percent, or 12 860 gigajoules (GJ). That would result in a reduction of 645 tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent per year. This should save the company over $150,000 in energy costs annually.
