Energy Efficiency

Performance indicator

Energy used in production as a proportion of production output

Following the previous reduction from 2008 to 2009, 2010 data shows an increase from 2009, which represents a three per cent increase on the baseline year of 2008. However, the total energy used by the industry in 2010 has fallen significantly from the baseline year and is on par with the figure for 2009. The continued reduction in production volume over 2009, which has continued into 2010, has resulted in a fixed energy use from production sites being allocated to a lower volume of concrete.
