Glen Dimplex and Vickers cut cost and C02 emissions 15 May 2013

Domestic appliances manufacturer Glen Dimplex Home Appliances has reduced CO2 emissions by 9,225 tonnes since 2005 by using Vickers energy efficiency technology – and now expects further substantial savings.

The firm recently upgraded its energy management system, installing Vickers' new V42 system to manage a reconfigured layout at its production plant in Prescot – leading to anticipated further savings of 12% energy, equating to an additional 554 tonnes of CO2 per year.

Glen Dimplex invested some £68,000 in the initial installation and the upgrade, but the group says it has saved more than 50,000,000 kWh or £1,250,000 in energy bills since the original installation in 2005.

Says Glen Dimplex Home Appliances facilities engineer Andy Black: "As a result of bringing our whole heating system in Liverpool under the control of Vickers systems, we are benefiting from greater energy operational efficiency, which translates into bottom line business benefits as well as carbon savings."
