Energy and waste audits for industrial sites in the Philippines

A paid, scoped assessment of your site's waste streams and energy costs. It ends in measured quantities, a costed option comparison and a recommendation you can act on.

The problem it answers

Most industrial sites suspect their disposal costs and energy bills hide an opportunity, but nobody on site has the time or the reference data to prove it either way. Vendors will sell you their technology. What you need first is an answer to whether any technology makes financial sense on your numbers.

What we do

We assess the site with your data: waste composition and tonnage, current disposal costs, energy bills, thermal and power demand, permits and site constraints. The output is a written business case: what your waste and energy situation supports, what it does not, and the realistic routes. Those are anaerobic digestion, biomass or thermal energy, composting, co-digestion, or no project at all.

The audit is paid and scoped. That keeps the answer honest: we are not writing it to sell a machine, and more than one audit has ended in our advice not to build anything.

Boiler fuel switching for Scope 1

Fuel burned in your own boilers counts as Scope 1 emissions. A boiler fuel conversion starts with a paid boiler and utility audit. It measures efficiency, fuel consumption and the steam demand profile, and costs each option, including doing nothing.

Fuel switching to biomass, on an existing or a replacement boiler, works only where a residue supply can be secured under contract. A biomass boiler without a contracted residue supply ends up burning whatever fuel is available.

We expect electrifying process heat above about 150 °C to cost too much at current Philippine tariffs; the audit tests this on your numbers.

References: boiler audits at Knauf plants in five countries, on boilers of 15 to 50 tonnes of steam an hour (TPH), biomass and coal. The Philippine plant also received a sustainability transition plan. REURASIA also operates the 18 TPH biomass boiler at BECIS, Cabuyao.

Where it leads

If the case is strong, the audit becomes the technical basis for the next step: a pre-feasibility study, a leasing proposal, or a project design. If it is weak, you have spent a fraction of a project budget to find out early.

The first step

Tell us about the site and what it produces. We respond with the data checklist for a scoped audit proposal.

Sectors where this is usually the right first step: private landfills and waste operators, rice mills, sugar mills and distilleries, poultry and livestock farms, manufacturing plants with fuel-fired boilers.

Tell us about your site

What the site produces, what you pay to dispose of it, and what you pay for energy. An engineer reads it and comes back with the first step.
