The other factor in the Group’s energy trends is the underlying
efficiency of our plants. A robust approach to energy management
is therefore crucial across our businesses and each business unit
regularly reviews its operational performance and responds to it
appropriately. This year, a series of detailed efficiency performance
tests was carried out by the Group’s Engineering Department on
all boilers within the Group’s businesses. The test had several
objectives, chief among them is to provide our businesses with
long term maintenance planning and identify boilers that need
replacement.
Since 2011, all biomass residue from our Sei-Menggaris
palm oil mill in Indonesia are either converted into fertilizer/
compost or clean energy. In the case of the latter, mesocarp
fibre, palm shell and shredded EFB are utilised as feedstock
for the steam boiler and the steam generated therefrom will
then fuel the steam turbine in the cogeneration plant. The
impact from the utilisation of biomass as renewal energy
has been significant. The electricity and heat energy
generated from the cogeneration plant is used to power
the oil mill, worker’s quarters and as well as government
facilities, schools and mosque. In FYE2016/17, 5,420,030
kWh of electricity was generated which is equivalent to 562
homes’ electricity use for one year*.
