Kyoto Group announces that it has signed a term sheet for delivering a Heatcube to one of Germany’s major paper and packaging manufacturers—Klingele. The designated site for installing a first Heatcube is at Klingele’s facility in Werne, a corrugated board plant in Germany.

Klingele Paper and Packaging Group, a global manufacturer with 13 corrugated board plants worldwide, 8 processing plants and 3 paper mills, aims to achieve a reduction of CO2 emissions by the year 2030. At the plant in Werne a reduction of 55% of CO2 emissions is planned by 2030. This goal will be accomplished through the utilization of off-grid wind and solar energy, coupled with the replacement of the existing gas boilers for steam production. To address the intermittent nature of renewables, Klingele plans to install Kyoto Group’s molten salt thermal energy storage solution, Heatcube. This innovative system will capture electricity when available and supply steam as needed. The recently announced AI-powered back end of Heatcube will also ensure state-of-the-art preventive and predictive maintenance for Klingele.

On December 15, 2023, Canadian Kraft Paper Industries Limited was ordered to pay a $1 million fine after pleading guilty at the Provincial Court of Manitoba to one charge under the federal Fisheries Act, one of the largest environmental fines in Manitoba history. The charges stemmed from a February 2019 pipe leak at Canadian Kraft Paper Industries Limited’s pulp and paper mill in The Pas, Manitoba. The leak resulted in the release of 23,000 litres of black liquor, a by-product of the manufacturing process, into Canadian Kraft Paper Industries Limited’s mill effluent treatment system. Environment and Climate Change Canada enforcement officers responded and collected samples. Through a subsequent investigation, they determined that over the course of six days, close to 181 million litres of acutely lethal effluent had been released from the effluent treatment system into the Saskatchewan River.

Elopak has announced plans to build its first U.S. production plant with the latest state-of-the-art technology for the production of Pure-Pak® cartons for liquid dairy, juices, plant-based products and liquid eggs.

In a statement, Elopak said, “Following the investment announcement in June 2023, the company has evaluated different financing opportunities and concluded to own and fully finance the plant on the balance sheet. Hence, the nominal cost of the investment will be recognized in the balance sheet instead of the discounted value of the lease payments, increasing the reported investment by around USD 15 million.”

This is economically more profitable for Elopak compared to partly leasing, which was assumed in June.
