USING DATA TO IMPROVE ENERGY PERFORMANCE
In 2022 the Digital Shop-floor Management (DSM) Energy system for measuring,
monitoring and managing energy performance, developed in-house by a multidis-
ciplinary team, was introduced at all French sites.
• REPLACEMENT OF ENERGY-
INTENSIVE MACHINES
Groupe SEB’s birthplace at Selongey (France)
receives a government subsidy (part of the
ADEME France Relance recovery plan) to carry
out a number of improvements to achieve an
11% energy saving: replacement of three
washing/degreasing tunnels, replacement of
a thermal fluid boiler with condensing boilers
and installation of free heat recovery on air
compressors.
An extensive program to renew the installed
base of hybrid injection presses has been
launched and will continue over three years
for all sites producing small domestic
appliances. The first will be Mayenne (France)
and Cajicá (Colombia).
• ENERGY-EFFICIENT BUILDINGS
All lighting on all sites worldwide has been
replaced by higher-quality, more energy-
efficient LED lights.
An audit of electricity consumption during
manufacturing downtime, while the facility
is unoccupied, has been carried out at all
French factories, and has led to significant
reductions thanks to targeted, rapidly
implemented responses.
• How it works:
Sensors connected to monitoring soft-
ware are fitted to equipment; energy
management modules identify and
track energy output, and apply correc-
tive measures if necessary.
• The results:
-7%
energy saving
in 2022 in France
over the 11 industrial
sites
-7%
saving in the
corresponding

From 2023 this tool will be rolled out
at all Groupe SEBs industrial facilities
worldwide to monitor energy use It
can also be developed to monitor water
consumption
