Environmental Challenges
- Slight increase in emissions intensity for Scopes 1 and 2 in 2023, despite absolute emissions improvement. This was due to increased domestic manufacturing process emissions and mining and milling activity at the Delta facility offsetting significant equipment and volume-related energy reductions at other facilities.
Mitigation Strategies
- Launched a company-wide Energy Metrics program in 2023 to measure, aggregate, and report electricity and natural gas usage data.
- Developed and implemented a comprehensive set of energy reduction best practices across all manufacturing locations in 2023.
- Implemented various energy reduction activities at multiple facilities, including boiler replacement, compressor replacement, fume scrubber optimization, and machine optimization, resulting in significant energy savings.
