Climate

Information on our energy consumption on site and for the outgoing delivery of our products, as well as our overall CO2 balance (Scopes 1–3), can be found in our listings on the topic of Climate.  

Electricity consumption

Electricity consumption (kWh) 2023 2022 2021 2020
Electricity consumption in production and administration 4,041,306.00 4,046,370.56 4,264,931.20 3,987,496.00
Electricity consumption in exhibition building 42,820.00 42,587.00 40,950.00 47,752.00

Heating

Heating (kWh) 2023 2022 2021 2020
Wood chips (t)* 803.94 511.96 569.60 1,299.77
Wood chips (kWh) 3,718,501 2,367,801.13 2,689,758.89 6,137,818.49
Heating oil (kWh) 10,060.00 28,050.67 5,583.33 42,288.17
Gas (exhibition building)** 0.00 69,654.98 92,228.71 85,239.00

* Chip volume calculation was optimised in 2023 to provide a more accurate figure.

** The gas heating was switched off in December 2022 and the exhibition was connected to the combustion plant.

Fuel

Fuel (kWh) 2023 2022 2021 2020
Fuels for the company's own truck fleet (l) 284,778.23 345,895.4 366,852.2 363,414.5
Fuels for truck fleet (kWh) 3,035,735.93 3,687,244.96 3,910,644.45 3,873,998.57
Fuels for the company car fleet (l) (all fuel types) 119,498.06 112,032.89 106,966.26 106,730.12
Fuels for the company car fleet in kWh (across all fuels, incl. consumption of electric vehicles) 1,308,923.57 1,185,568.29 1,106,854.52 1,109,759.65

Energy intensity

ENERGY INTENSITY** 2023 2022 2021
Lighting (kWh/m²) for building area 25.11 25.76 26.51
Compressed air (kWh/1000m³) for compressed air 110.22 111.29 111.23
Heating (kWh) for building area* 134.96 84.33 88.60

* The heating figure has dropped because a new key figure has been added for the amount of wood chips consumed.

** The energy intensity figures reflect three of the five energy indicators specified in ISO 50001; the figures for the vehicle fleet and extraction had not yet been finalised when the Sustainability Report was audited. The aim is for the energy intensity figures to improve every year. This was achieved in 2023 through specific measures such as the elimination of compressed air leaks, better control of the extraction system and the replacement of LED lights. The measures are managed by the Energy team.
