Fuel & water costs cut

The new RO system has reduced water and energy losses by cutting the amount of boiler blowdown and water needed. Accurate metering of fuel oil and water has pinpointed the savings, including 3800 litres of oil saved over a 15-day period.

It is also anticipated that the savings are likely to be even higher than these measurements suggest because of reduced CO₂ emissions and a lower Climate Change Levy (CCL), although these have yet to be quantified.
