Böle Garveri is a tannery located outside Piteå with a long history of leather production. They are planning a new tannery in Bangladesh as a step in their ongoing expansion of their business. The leather industry in Bangladesh is currently chemically heavy and in many cases highly toxic to the environment. Böle Garveri intends to change the view of the leather industry with their green tanning process and commissioned this project to energy map the tannery, optimize their production and investigate the possibilities of becoming self sustaining with power production.
