In the table, the types of fuel used by the Group, as well as energy consumption, are detailed

Some Italian plants of the Group self-produce much of the energy used.
In particular, three plants use energy from photovoltaic power: Prima Eastern, which owns a plant that covers about 7% of its needs, Prima Anagni, with a plant that covers about 12%, and Prima Components Ferentino. The plant of Prima Components Paliano has an electric power generator for emergency, with Customs Agency License (Licenza Agenzia Dogane), but without meter. The plant of Sole Oderzo, through cogeneration, produced in 2020 2,172 Mwh, consuming for this purpose 24,384 GJ methane; also the plant of Twice PS IT self-produces electrical and thermal energy through cogeneration, thanks to a plant managed by an external company. The plants in Anagni, Ferentino, Tecnoprima, Prima Eastern and SP Prima sell electricity for a total of 1,031 Mwh.

PSC Group aims to improve its environmental performance and energy consumption on a regular basis, in order to reduce it in production sites and offices, by implementing specific policies and projects. Specifially, among the initiatives launched, the followings are included:

• Installation of energy-efficient lighting systems and photocells for automatic on and off lights switching;
• Introduction of more effient production machinery and equipment, from an energetic point of view;
• Adoption of management systems which are environmental and in line with the IS014001 standard;
• The replacement in Prima Eastern plant of old moulds with both outdated technology and considerable energy consuption.
• Planning a trigeneration plant in Sole Oderzo, which will fully cover thermal energy, along with cooling energy and the 25% of electric energy. The plant will be operational in 2022.

In those plants using Word Class Manufacturing (WCM) method, such as Prima Components Anagni, Prima Components Ferentino, PSC Automotivos and PSMM of Pernambuco, Energy pillar aims to increase the ability of initiatives identifiation and implementation, in order to reduce waste and to improve energy effiency.

In the following table, for every business unit are reported values as variations compared to the machine hours worked (GJ/h).

KPI of monitoring of Group Performances: Energy Consumption

Energy consumption of the Group per unit of generated value, results in a slight increase, due to a reduction in generated value in 2020 compared to 2019.
