摘要

Irecently had the privilege to be a session speaker at the annual meeting of the Northwest Food Processors Assn. Jan. 13-16 in Portland, Ore. I was struck by the seriousness with which the food industry's senior management is considering the risks and opportunities regarding energy. The willingness to have an open and serious discussion about the future impacts of energy and climate change was both impressive and timely. This industry faces potentially game-changing influences around costs, the demands of consumers and the demands of food retailers. I thought this would be an interesting case to look at in more detail. The U.S. food industry has evolved for decades on a diet of cheap, freely available energy. This inevitably is reflected in the industry's operations. The various energy-related aspects of food processing and packaging, food preparation, sterilization, refrigeration, etc., have tended to be viewed separately with a relatively low level of integration. Elsewhere in the world, where energy prices have traditionally been higher, there is a higher degree of energy integration, including extensive heat recovery from process to process.
