Energy Efficiency Case Studies for the F&B Industry

This section provides nine case studies of energy efficiency implementation that gave real benefits to enterprises within the F&B industry. These examples are drawn from the TBW project and SUSTENT Consulting Pvt. Ltd.’s work with the F&B industry in the Yangon region of Myanmar, India and Central Asia (Tajikistan and Uzbekistan). 25 The case studies described here are organized in ascending order of simple payback period. First, we provide examples of immediate payback period, followed by those examples where the payback period is longer. Usually, those initiatives that have a shorter payback period are also easier to implement.

25 For all calculations in all case studies, monetary benefits are converted to MMK (Myanmar kyat) using the following rates: 1 USD= 10,810 UZS (Uzbekistan Som), 1 USD= 9.88 TJS (Tajikistan Somoni), and 1 USD= 1848 MMK.
