Heineken España: Improved-visibility into water and energy-usage delivers sustainability and efficiency gains
Nov. 12, 2024
After several challenges, the Seville brewery now has access to improved data and the ability to view sustainability metrics in real time. It can view real time operations against both yearly sustainability targets and historical levels and make dynamic process adjustments.
Sustainability has been a core operating principle for Heineken, founded in Amsterdam, for 150 years. In 2010, the company launched an aggressive 10-year plan to reduce water usage and increase energy efficiency throughout its breweries, offices, and warehouses. When Heineken’s new brewery in Seville, Spain, started approaching its technological benchmark limits, the Seville brewery deployed AVEVA PI System as its energy and water monitoring solution. In doing so, it was able to push its sustainability improvements past the technological limits.
