Performance With Purpose: The Promise Of PepsiCo 1

The solar power system at Frito-Lay’s Casa Grande,Arizona plant is one way the facility hopes tooperate almost entirely on renewable energy sources.LEED awards for Existing BuildingsGold Certifications in 2010 from the U.S.Green Building Council Leadership inEnergy and Environmental Design.The Perry, Georgia; Topeka, Kansas;Modesto, California; Beloit, Wisconsin;Jonesboro, Arkansas; and Killingly,Connecticut manufacturing sites joinedthe Casa Grande site in 2010. (*)(*) See page 19.29Reduce our fuel-useintensity by 25 percentper unit of productionby 2015.Fuel-use intensity for our globalfood and beverage manufacturingoperations has improvedby more than 12 percent as of thethird quarter 2010 versus the2006 baseline. Our progress isthe result of a number of innovationsbeing introduced in facilitiesaround the world. In 2010,we extended the deployment ofour new high-efficiency heatexchangers to production plantsin the U.K., Portugal, Spain andIndia. This device, which waspiloted in Australia and Russia,significantly improves heat transferand recaptures heat lost inthe potato chip frying process.Frito-Lay’s Topeka, Kansasfacility has reduced its naturalgas consumption per pound ofproduct by 40 percent since 1999by installing new technologies,including high-efficiency ovenburners and a high-efficiencybiomass boiler. In addition tothese and other technologies, ourresource conservation programsare providing an essential foundationfor helping our plants toreduce fuel-use intensity andkeeping us on track to meet this2015 goal. (*)30Commit to a goal of reducinggreenhouse gas (GHG)intensity for U.S. operationsby 25 percent through ourpartnership with the U.S.Environmental ProtectionAgency Climate Leadersprogram.We have made important progress byestablishing a rigorous new internalframework to drive our energy conservationefforts and are on track to meetour U.S. GHG intensity goal. Frito-Lay’stransition to a more fuel-efficient fleetincluded a significant investment inelectric-powered commercial trucks.In 2010, 13 electric Frito-Lay deliverytrucks began their routes in the U.S. andCanada, with another 163 scheduledfor launch in 2011. We believe this willmake Frito-Lay the largest operatorof all-electric private delivery trucks inNorth America. These trucks are estimatedto emit 75 percent less greenhousegas than conventional diesel trucks andwill eliminate the need for approximately500,000 gallons of fuel annually. (*)37
