p.69: "In 2017, 43% of Gildan’s total energy was powered from renewable sources." -> 43% refers to fuel from biomass.
p.67: 2017 Energy consumption by type:
- Electricity (Indirect) (36.2%)
- Renewable fuels: biomass (42.4%)
- Non-renewable fuels: propane (0.7%), fuel oil (bunker) (10.1%), diesel (1.2%), natural gas (6.5%), liquid natural gas (2.9%) => Total: 21.4% or 21% (=64%-43%)
p.67: Energy consumption of Gildan-owned facilities in 2017:
- Absolute total energy (direct+indirect) = approx. 8,263,325 GJ
-> Absolute direct energy (renewable+non) = 64% or 5,288,528 GJ
=> Renewable fuel consumption = 8,263,325 x 0.43 = 3,553,230.
