MYTILINEOS GROUP
SUSTAINABILITY REPORT 2011
110
The Company’s direct energy consumption in 2011 stood at 12,447 TJ. The total use of direct energy refers to primary sources of energy purchased by the
Company for its own consumption and, more specifically, to diesel fuel and natural gas which are used only for heating/transport and not for the Company’s
production activities. There was no direct energy consumption from renewable energy sources, and no production or sale of energy.
The total consumption of energy from sources outside the Company stood at 25,523 ΤJ, with 7.7% of this quantity coming from renewable energy sources
(mainly wind and solar). Purchase and consumption by the Company of energy from non-renewable energy sources during 2011 stood at 23,397,1 GJ, with
electricity accounting for 58.3% of this quantity, with natural gas accounting for a larger share (and petrol for a lower one) of the remaining 42%. The quantity
of primary fuels for the consumption of electricity cannot be estimated.
Water consumption
Although the total quantity of water used by the Company during 2011 and drawn from public water supply companies was reduced by 8.6% compared to
2010, total water consumption per person for 2011 stood at 13.42 m
3
, up 14.9% from the previous year. This was mainly due to the increased use of water
by the permanent employees of METKA S.A., despite the constant supervision and guidance that the Company provides in line with its strategy to limit water
consumption.
Waste disposal
METKA S.A. promotes the correct management of the waste produced by its activities, giving gives priority to separation at the source, recycling and final
disposal in order to conserve natural resources. The Company’s total quantity of waste in 2011 stood at 327.1 tons and 463 pieces of printer consumables.
Of this total quantity of waste, 99.3% was recycled.
