Energy efficiency
To improve energy efficiency and reduce the energy intensity of its operations, JSC FPC works to reduce its fuel and energy consumption every year.
Despite limitations related to the coronavirus pandemic, improvement of energy efficiency and reduction of energy intensity of the Company’s production operations, continued in 2021 through implementation of the following measures:
- Purchasing new, advanced, and energy-efficient rolling stock
- Using energy-saving technologies in the Company’s depot and site lighting systems (LEDs and smart control systems)
- Upgrading and converting boilers from liquid fuels to gas
- Retrofitting the Company’s buildings and structures with water consumption and discharge, electricity and heat meters
