Over 14 weeks, our team replaced Keroche's three legacy HFO burners with high-efficiency biomass systems. Steam output held. Fuel costs dropped 62%. Here is every detail.
For a major beverage manufacturer like Keroche Breweries, consistent steam output is critical to the production process. Relying on three legacy HFO burners was becoming financially unsustainable.
Over a meticulously planned 14-week period, the Lean Energy Solutions engineering team replaced the legacy systems with high-efficiency biomass combustion units. The project was executed with minimal disruption to the brewing schedule.
Post-conversion metrics exceeded expectations: steam output remained perfectly stable, while fuel costs plummeted by 62%. Keroche now operates on 100% sustainable biomass.
