HOW WE’RE HELPING INDUSTRIAL CUSTOMERS SAVE ENERGY & MONEY
If you’re looking to reduce your energy use in your industrial facility, we’re here to help. We work with industrial and large commercial customers throughout Manitoba to help identify, investigate, and implement energy-saving opportunities to make your facility’s operations more energy efficient. With help from our team of experts, we provide complimentary benchmark studies, energy efficiency assessments, and incentives that help offset the costs of leak assessments and repairs and feasibility studies.
Once energy efficiency opportunities are identified, we also provide incentives to offset the costs of implementing energy efficiency upgrades. We take a project-based approach with the goal of maximizing your energy savings and incentives by participating in multiple programs that make sense for your business. We can help you lower your operating costs, improve the systems you currently use, and reduce your environmental impact.
That’s exactly how we helped McCain Foods Limited identify and implement several energy efficiency upgrades in their processing facilities.
SUBSTANTIAL SAVINGS FOR MCCAIN FOODS
McCain Foods is the world’s largest manufacturer of frozen potato products with two facilities in Manitoba. They’ve been working with us on numerous projects over the years including insulation and lighting upgrades as well as a variety of energy efficiency upgrades to their manufacturing processes. Projects have included compressed air upgrades, refrigeration upgrades, and recovering waste heat for reuse within their facility.
Since working with us, McCain Foods has significantly reduced their energy use and greenhouse gas emissions at their two Manitoba locations. They’re also realizing substantial energy bill savings through these energy efficiency upgrades.
“With help from both the knowledgeable team members and financial incentives, Efficiency Manitoba’s Custom Energy Solutions Program allowed us to identify and implement numerous upgrades in our facilities. We’re already seeing the benefits and look forward to working together on future projects.”
— Mike Weissig, Sustainability Manager at McCain Foods
WHAT’S NEXT?
McCain Foods is committed to continuing to find ways to reduce their energy consumption. They’re currently participating in our Strategic Energy Manager Initiative, which offers funding and training for an onsite energy manager to develop a focused, strategic approach to energy reduction within their organization. Mike had this to say:
“Having the opportunity to exchange ideas and entertain new concepts has been very helpful in growing our business while reducing energy consumption.”
