Brewery Energy Use & Benchmarks7 / 17
Compressed Air & Site Utilities
Where compressed air is used in a brewery, and the ancillary loads (pumps, cold stores, lighting) that add up across the site.

Compressed air and the site's ancillary loads rarely dominate a brewery's energy bill the way the boiler or the glycol plant do — but they're everywhere, they're easy to leave running, and the compressed air course elsewhere on this platform already covers the physics in full. This lesson is about where a brewery specifically uses air and ancillary power, not how compressors work.
