Annual integrated report 2018

Driver-training programmes continue to monitor and improve driving behaviour, thereby reducing fuel consumption. Ongoing efforts in route optimisation also ensure fuel consumption is kept to a minimum. South African operations adopted energy- efficient electric trucks fitted with on-board computers and monitoring systems. This enables the tracking and management of efficient driving. Chinese fuel levies and government-imposed restrictions on the number of vehicles permitted in certain areas have helped reduce consumption. These initiatives are designed to curb air pollution. In our Asian operations, consumption of liquid petroleum gas (LPG), used mainly in forklifts, has increased following investment in new forklifts and additional warehouse space. Middle East have also reported increased LPG consumption by forklifts. Energy, and particularly electricity, is closely managed. However, scope 2 emissions rose by 9%. Management continue to drive efficiency gains despite the challenges posed in these countries by the environment, climate and the limited availability of alternative energy sources. Energy efficiency initiatives include the use of thermostats in our Brazilian freezers and the installation of LED lighting, sensor control and timers on electrical appliances. Ongoing retrofitting of energy-saving LED lighting continues. CFG building facilities are undergoing a full review, with the focus on energy-saving design improvements. Plans are underway to implement boiler heat recovery processes and reduce paraffin usage. Initiatives such as these in tandem with solar panel investment will improve our carbon footprint. Increased electricity and water usage in the Asian businesses is largely attributable to the new cold storage warehouse in Hong Kong. Increased consumption on the back of our Malaysian acquisition is also noted. However, efficiencies have been gained. BFA launched a national water-wise campaign. Where possible, borehole water was used to ease the strain on municipal water supplies. However, the quality of borehole water was not high enough to permit use in CFG water purification filtration systems. This limitation is being addressed by plans for new water purification and filtration investment. The BFA borehole water is not suitable for consumption but is used for vehicle wash bays and grey-water ablutions. The ammonia cooling towers can operate on a mix of municipal and borehole water. In the year ahead, installation of in-line meters will facilitate the measurement and tracking of borehole and rain water usage. Natural capital Outsourced third-party logistics (3PL) services have also contributed to reduced reported fuel consumption in South America and our Middle East region. Measures implemented in the Middle East follow significant fuel cost increases and new local taxes. Turkey’s EFE acquisition contributed to higher fuel consumption and distances travelled. 2018 % Change 2017 Diesel ( kilolitres ) 6 391 (17) 7 728 Petrol ( kilolitres ) 1 714 (2) 1 751 LPG (tonnes) 72 25 58 LNG (tonnes) 151 3 147 Aircon gas (tonnes) 13 – NR Electricity (non-renewable) (kWh) 61 895 273 12 55 183 915 Electricity (renewable) (kWh) – – – Municipal water ( kilolitres ) 329 4 318 Depot (m 2 ) 237 426 (3) 243 841 Vehicles 674 11 606 Scope 1+ emissions (tCO 2 e) (only refrigerants and aircon gases) 36 743 2017: NR Scope 3* (tonnes) Food waste 318 Waste recycled 399 Waste to landfill 1 316 2017: NR Scope 1 emissions (tCO 2 e) (excl refrigerants and aircon gases) 21 756 2017: 25 261 Scope 2 emissions (tCO 2 e) 47 012 2017: 43 256 NR = not reported * Emissions not calculated.
