into the atmosphere was achieved. The boiler room is also additionally powered
with biogas produced at the sewage pre-treatment plant. In 2013, the amount of
heat used by the breweries in Pozna ´ and Tychy from the so-called own sources
produced from gas, oil or biogas was 760,412 GJ. Besides, the truck fleet which
carries out Kompania Piwowarska's distribution processes is subjected to actions
aimed at converting to fuels of low carbon compounds content. The result is
replacing 20-30 % of the consumed diesel oil with natural gas (LPG). This tech-
nology makes it possible to reduce emission of particulate matter (Kompania
Piwowarska Sustainable Development 2013 ) (see Table 2 ).

3.4.2 Grupa Z Ǚ ywiec

Grupa Ǚ ywiec is also trying to rationally use energy at individual breweries and
technological processes. The company is trying to achieve one of the environ-
mental objectives that it sets itself, connected with the necessity to reduce CO 2
emission, in two ways: by reducing the total energy consumption and increas-
ing application of energy from renewable sources. In 2012, Grupa was success-
ful in improving the renewable sources share in the thermal energy consumption
(see Table 3 ). Simultaneously, the total thermal and electric energy use at Grupa
Ǚ ywiec rose to 1,313,715,021 MJ (i.e. by 1.1 %), which was, however, mostly
connected with an increase in production. The breweries in ElblǛg and Warka
