Alfa Laval, the company that delivers sustainable products and solutions for customers in energy, marine, and food & water, is now the first official member of ABB’s energy efficiency movement.
Public commitment
Recognizing the critical role that energy efficiency can play in the decarbonizing industry, Alfa Laval has made this public commitment to improve its own processes, in production, service, and products.
It includes setting the target of improving energy efficiency - measured in terms of megawatt-hours (MWh) consumed for each direct hour of operation - by five percent by 2023 compared to 2020. The announcement was made during an Alfa Laval event held at the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties (COP26) in Glasgow, Scotland.
#energyefficiencymovement
Energy efficiency can deliver a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of more than 40 percent over the next 20 years Launched in March of 2021 by ABB, the #energyefficiencymovement is a multi-stakeholder initiative to raise awareness and initiate action in order to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions to combat climate change.
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), energy efficiency can deliver a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of more than 40 percent over the next 20 years, with 50 percent of that reduction coming from the industrial sector.
