Case Study: Global Food and Beverage Company achieves 19% annual energy cost reduction with CoolPlanetOS and ISO 50001

Global food & beverage company saves 19% /year & builds security via ISO 50001

A major global food and beverage company based in Europe engaged CoolPlanet to address its energy consumption and achieve cost savings at two of its major processing plants. The challenge was to quantify energy use and identify savings opportunities by creating a digital twin of the plants' energy usage, which involved retrieving data from numerous sources including energy bills, ERP, and SCADA systems.

Using its CoolPlanetOS platform, CoolPlanet implemented a series of efficiency projects, including LED lighting upgrades and compressor replacements, which led to significant energy cost savings. The vendor then guided the company through achieving ISO 50001 certification in just nine months. The solution resulted in a 19% reduction in annual energy costs, equating to over €620,000 in savings, and provided a framework for continuous improvement.
