Developing a Low Carbon Process Optimisation Strategy
Working alongside a specialist company, Alpha Rowen has been taking active steps to reduce their carbon emissions since May 2010. This has involved purchasing of new equipment, and optimising our production processes to reduce carbon emissions every step of the way.
Lighting Improvements
Over the years, energy costs for lighting have been a key issue Alpha Rowen have been addressing. Regular upgrading of lighting in facilities where necessary have helped reduce energy usage and carbon emissions on all sites.
Sub Metering of High Energy Facilities
To truly be able to target and adjust where emissions are at their highest, sub-metering has been used to accurately record emissions of invisible waste, and allow Alpha Rowen to react appropriately. Sub-metering of the Furnaces has allowed their efficiency to grow and increase, without the increase of emissions.
