Feb. 13, 2009

According to FoodProcessing.com sister site, PlantServices.com, Coca-Cola Enterprises (CCE) is nearly complete with a major lighting retrofit project to reduce energy consumption in its California facilities. The project will decrease CCE’s energy consumption for lighting by 5.6 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) a year, with the potential to decrease 113 million kilowatt-hours during the 20-year life of the new system.

The project has earned CCE the Orion Energy Systems Environmental Stewardship Award, which was presented by Orion’s executive vice president Michael Potts to Coca-Cola Enterprises’ executives during a ceremony at its Downey, Calif., production facility.
