Energy:
Our Performance
A corporate wide Energy Council reporting directly to the Global Chief Supply Chain Officer develops plant by plant, country and global energy targets and specific projects for their achievement. Within each brewery we have energy teams focused on identifying and implementing energy saving initiatives. Ideas are shared across sites via regional meetings and across businesses via quarterly global energy team meetings. We have undertaken lighting replacement projects at several of our breweries, replacing old light fittings with up to date more efficient ones along with control systems that detect the need for lights; we have also installed variable speed drives onto motors and optimized distribution voltage across sites. In Canada an upgrade of the heating, ventilation, air-conditioning systems across the sites has been hugely successful reducing energy and saving thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide.
Molson Coors' emission efficiency has improved by 21% since the 2008 baseline. Our target is 7% by the end of 2012 (Scope 1 & 2), meaning that we have reduced emissions by three times the initial goal. In 2011 we saw a 5.4% decrease in carbon intensity use over the previous year. The reduction in carbon intensity of our beer has also delivered an absolute carbon reduction of 20% since 2008.
This year's greenhouse gas emissions have been calculated using the latest available internationally accepted conversion factors and local electricity carbon intensity factors from official sources (e.g Canada EPA). The data has been independently reviewed in accordance with ISAE 3000.
Molson Coors evaluated and disclosed climate change risk to investors in our 2012 10K.
The data below is for Molson Coors Brewing Company (Molson Coors Canada and Molson Coors UK & Ireland) and MillerCoors (due to our 42% equity share we account for 42% of their environmental impact).

*In 2009 we enhanced the boundaries of our GHG emission inventory. In the UK and Canada fleet vehicles, offices and warehouses were included that were previously excluded.
** In 2010 we revised how we report purchased CO2. For the UK this meant moving purchased CO2 to Scope 3, for the US 50% of purchased CO2 is reported as fugitive emissions (Scope 1) and the other 50% as Scope 3.
***The methodology used for calculation of our scope 3 emissions has continued to expand and develop. Our calculations are based on life cycle analysis data and encompass emissions associated with travel, transport, agricultural raw material production, packaging material production, energy generation, waste disposal and consumption of our products.
