Reduce our fuel-use
intensity by 25 percent
per unit of production
by 2015.
Fuel-use intensity for our global
food and beverage manufactur-
ing operations has improved
bymore than 12percent as of the
third quarter 2010 versus the
2006 baseline. Our progress is
the result of a number of innova-
tions being introduced in facili-
ties around the world. In 2010,
we extended the deployment of
our new high-eciency heat
exchangers to production plants
in the U.K., Portugal, Spain and
India. This device, which was
piloted in Australia and Russia,
significantly improves heat trans-
fer and recaptures heat lost in
the potato chip frying process.
Frito-Lay’s Topeka, Kansas
facility has reduced its natural
gas consumption per pound of
product by 40percent since 1999
by installing new technologies,
including high-eciency oven
burners and a high-eciency
biomass boiler. In addition to
these and other technologies, our
resource conservation programs
are providing an essential foun-
dation for helping our plants to
reduce fuel-use intensity and
keeping us on track to meet this
2015goal.(*)

Commit to a goal of reducing
greenhouse gas (GHG)
intensity for U.S. operations
by 25percent through our
partnership with the U.S.
Environmental Protection
Agency Climate Leaders
program.
We have made important progress by
establishing a rigorous new internal
framework to drive our energy conser-
vation eorts and are on track to meet
our U.S. GHG intensity goal. Frito-Lay’s
transition to a more fuel-ecient fleet
included a significant investment in
electric-powered commercial trucks.
In 2010, 13 electric Frito-Lay delivery
trucks began their routes in the U.S. and
Canada, with another 163 scheduled
for launch in 2011. We believe this will
make Frito-Lay the largest operator
ofall-electric private delivery trucks in
North America. These trucks are esti-
mated to emit 75percent less greenhouse
gas than conventional diesel trucks and
will eliminate the need for approximately
500,000 gallons of fuel annually. (*)

The Perry, Georgia; Topeka, Kansas;
Modesto, California; Beloit, Wisconsin;
Jonesboro, Arkansas; and Killingly,
Connecticut manufacturing sites joined
the Casa Grande site in 2010. (*)
The solar power system at Frito-Lay’s Casa Grande,
Arizona plant is one way the facility hopes to
operate almost entirely on renewable energy sources.
