Energy and water efficiency in the brewing industry 2000 to 2008

Reducing energy and water consumption is an important topic for the brewing industry. Both economic and environmental factors play a decisive role in the quest to minimise energy and water consumption. The question is what energy efficiencies do other breweries achieve and what is best practice? Prompted by an agreement with the government, the Dutch Brewers Association (CBK) set out to develop a methodology in 2000 to establish the worldwide benchmark in specific energy consumption for the brewing industry. The benchmark has been repeated in 2004 and again in 2008.
