Case Study: a US automotive equipment manufacturer achieves 15% portfolio decarbonisation with Anthesis energy audits and ECMs

A US automotive equipment manufacturer need to decarbonise its facilities has been accelerated through supply chain pressure exerted by automotive customers

The client, a US automotive equipment manufacturer, faced pressure from its supply chain to decarbonize its global facilities. It set goals to reduce its Scope 1 and 2 emissions intensity by 30% and increase renewable energy sourcing by 15% by 2030. To meet this challenge, the manufacturer engaged the sustainability firm Anthesis to conduct detailed ASHRAE level 2 energy audits across 15 sites.

Anthesis identified immediate energy savings and developed a portfolio of investment-grade energy conservation measures, including AI controls and system upgrades. These measures, which required over $65 million in CAPEX, are projected to deliver a 15% decarbonization of the portfolio and significant operational cost savings, all while meeting the manufacturer's strict five-year ROI threshold. The work by Anthesis provides a clear pathway for the manufacturer to achieve its 2030 sustainability goals.
