Fonterra’s First Electrode Boiler Up And Running

Another successful decarbonisation project for the books! We’ve been so busy we haven’t had time to share updates, but we are thrilled to announce the Fonterra Edendale electrode boiler project has completed its 7-day trial test and is supplying steam to plant – a great milestone for the project!
This plant boasts a 20% reduction in emissions for the Edendale site which is equivalent to 47,500 tonnes of CO2 per annum.
Thanks goes out to the entire team for their contributions to this project, and to Fonterra for trusting us to supply their first Electrode Boiler.
