### Energy Efficiency Generates Annual Savings of $120,800 in a Paper Manufacturer in Santa Catarina, Brazil
Project under ANEEL/CELESC’s Energy Efficiency Program executed at IPEL and coordinated by Eletron Energia. The initiative automated production line electric motors, achieving a 42% reduction in energy costs for optimized equipment
The paper manufacturer IPEL has implemented, at its Indaial, Santa Catarina (Brazil) facility, a modernization project for the cellulose pulp preparation system, led by Eletron Energia S.A. The initiative replaced fixed motor starters with variable frequency drives (VFDs) equipped with dedicated process automation, allowing dynamic adjustment of motor speed according to process requirements.
The result was a 42% reduction in electricity consumption for the optimized equipment, equivalent to monthly savings of about $10,065, or approximately $120,800 per year.
According to IPEL’s general director, Luciano Barboza, high energy consumption has always been one of the main operational challenges. For this reason, the company has long developed energy efficiency projects focusing on environmental and operational benefits.
“This project developed by Eletron Energia brought a significant improvement to our processes, delivering tangible results for IPEL. More than that, it reinforces our commitment to sustainability and the long-term continuity of our business,” Barboza stated.
Integrated Engineering and Automation
Before modernization, the motors in IPEL’s pulp preparation sector operated 24 hours a day, even without active load, leading to excessive energy consumption and premature wear.
“It was like keeping a car revving in neutral all the time,” explains Alisson D’Agostin, Automation Specialist at Eletron Energia.
At that time, the system used soft starters, devices that smooth motor startup but do not allow speed control during operation. With the introduction of variable frequency drives, the motors can now operate at a variable speed, adapting to actual process demand.
The update also included the pulp pumping system, which was previously regulated manually using valves.
“The motor ran at full speed, and pressure was controlled by partially closing the valves, a less efficient approach,” says D’Agostin.
The automation enabled precise pressure control through frequency variation, enhancing efficiency and reducing mechanical wear.
Eletron Energia fully developed the motor control centers and the automated logic. Now, the operator selects parameters according to the type of paper being produced, and the system automatically adjusts time, volume, and rotation for optimal efficiency and process standardization.
“In summary, this project implemented variable frequency drives and a dedicated automation system, ensuring greater process reliability along with significant gains in energy efficiency and operational performance,” adds Victor Moraes, Engineer at Eletron Energia.
Financing Model and Investment Payback
The project, registered under code PE-05697-0115/2024 and titled “Indústria + Eficiente – IPEL Papel”, was fully financed by the Celesc Energy Efficiency Program (PEE), under regulation by the Brazilian Electricity Regulatory Agency (ANEEL).Eletron Energia conducted all feasibility studies, detailed design, and commissioning, as well as secured the funding.
“Celesc’s Energy Efficiency Program can be fully subsidized by the utilities, and the investment payback comes from the savings generated after implementation. It’s a model that enables improvements without direct costs to the company, making energy efficiency even more accessible,” notes D’Agostin.
According to him, the expected payback period is 18 months. Initial performance measurements already confirm the effectiveness of the improvements, which continue to be technically monitored.
Efficiency Combining Sustainability and a Forward-Looking Vision
IPEL’s general director emphasizes that the pursuit of efficiency is strategic in a highly competitive sector.
“We operate in the Tissue segment, producing sanitary paper products, which is extremely competitive,” he says. Thus, initiatives that help reduce operating costs —especially energy — are essential.
“This project not only strengthens our sustainable DNA but also enhances our competitiveness. These two factors go hand in hand and were decisive for the project’s success, which is already operating and delivering highly positive results.”
More than a business strategy, actions like IPEL’s align with Brazil’s broader energy transition agenda. As the country advances in public policies for decarbonization and gains global recognition for its mostly renewable power matrix, industrial energy efficiency initiatives become key to meeting emission reduction targets and promoting rational resource use.
For Engineer Victor Moraes, from Eletron Energia, the IPEL case exemplifies how energy efficiency can take a leading role in this transformation.
“Projects like IPEL’s must continue to gain traction. The company’s pioneering and highly strategic approach makes it an excellent example of how to combine sustainability and competitiveness intelligently,” concludes Moraes.

### Leading manufacturer of screws and fastening components for car manufacturers embraces efficiency on its way to carbon neutrality
Brugola OEB Industriale has embraced the concepts of sustainability and efficiency by implementing several strategies.
The first results are already tangible now, and other medium- and long-term projects will contribute to the achievement of carbon neutrality.
Italy's entrepreneurial fabric is rich with companies whose names have contributed to the prestige of an entire industry. These also include Brugola OEB Industriale Spa, known more simply as Brugola, a company founded in 1926 by Egidio Brugola, the man who in 1945 filed and was granted a patent for the hexagonal hollow head screw with a twist shank, known more commonly as the Allen screw. Brugola, which has been included in the automotive supply chain since the 1980s, is now a leading manufacturer of screws and fastening components for the world's major car manufacturers, a sector that is very aware of green issues and in which companies are required to have a sustainability plan. In the future, it will go more and more in this direction, until sustainability becomes a discriminating characteristic when choosing partners.
The benefits of sustainability
The entrepreneurial vision that guides Brugola includes sustainability and concern for the environment."The initiatives we have developed go in two directions. - confirms Jody Brugola, the company's president - One concerns the direct impact of our processes and, therefore, is carried out with technological improvements to reduce consumption and waste of raw materials and energy. The other involves actions to achieve carbon neutrality. We are a manufacturing company and it would be unrealistic to think of zero consumption, but we can implement offsetting projects to get as close as possible to the concept of zero impact. Each of these steps contributed to approaching and subsequently joining the Energy Efficiency Movement founded by ABB, a true movement designed to implement, improve and share best practices for a more energy-efficient future."Brugola's stated goal is to reduce the CO2 equivalent generated by 70 percent from a base year (2019) and to achieve total carbon neutrality by 2035.
A potential to be fully exploitedIn a manufacturing company, processes can conceal interesting efficiency gains. At Brugola we started with some relatively simple interventions, such as upgrading lighting systems with LED lights and recovering oils used in production cycles, to recent projects aimed at managing power grid surges with the goal of reducing machinery consumption by about 5/7 percent.
Great satisfaction has also come from other initiatives, as Marco Cerruti, the company's HSE manager, confirms.
"We took action on compressed air generation systems, which have always been an important cost item for us. Therefore, we have replaced compressors with more efficient models, which have ensured a reduction in electricity consumption of up to 35 percent for some of our plants."
"We have gone further," Cerruti adds, "from the compressors themselves, for example, we have recovered the heat that is generated by reusing it for heating some of the departments, achieving a 40 percent saving on natural gas consumption. Being part of the Energy Efficency Movement is an excellent opportunity to share these and other initiatives, in turn taking cues from the best practices of other movers."
Compensate, but locally!Then there is the issue of compensation, usually declined as reforestation of forested areas in remote places around the globe."Brugola on the contrary is a company that is very tied to the territory, and that is why we decided to start a partnership with a local company that is involved in creating giant bamboo forests. - concluded Cerruti - In fact, this is a fast-growing plant that is able to absorb up to 36 times more CO2 than a mixed forest in our latitudes. We currently contribute to the maintenance of 6 hectares planted in Lombardy, but each year we increase this to reach the company's carbon neutrality goal by 2035."

### Energy efficiency measures help reduce about 20’000 tonnes of CO2 emissions of multinational dairy producer
As the race towards net-zero intensifies, industrial manufacturers are increasingly focused on their path towards an emission-free operation of industrial plants. The implementation of energy efficiency measures within the industrial sector is, however, often delayed due to the associated capital expenditures and the potential additional burden on the balance sheet. Thanks to the collaboration between Energy Service Companies (“ESCOs”) and financial partners, energy off-takers can use the “Energy-as-a-Service” model to implement CO2 and cost-reducing measures without upfront investment costs, structured such that the service is off-balance sheet. This model not only reduces financial burden but also leverages the technological expertise of ESCOs, making them the ideal partners for off-takers in their journey towards net-zero.
Via this “Energy-as-a-Service” business model, the German ESCO ENCORE Efficiency has implemented a wide array of energy efficiency measures for a multinational dairy producer. Across the projects at production sites in Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, these efforts have significantly increased the efficiency of the off-taker’s utilities, resulting in a yearly reduction of approx. 100 GWh in energy consumption, energy cost savings of EUR 4m and a decrease of 20’000 tonnes of CO2 emissions. Through a bespoke financing partnership with Solas Capital, the retrofits of the production sites were realised without capital expenditure from the off-taker. The associated customised private credit solution is amortised over the life of the projects through the achieved energy savings, and the financing is structured to accomplish a fully off-balance sheet treatment of the service.
As an example, one of the key technologies implemented at the dairy producer’s sites is the installation of efficient compressed air units. While compressing air, the equipment generates heat, which is typically wasted, because the installations are hydraulically not very efficiently designed and controlled. However, with the right equipment and expertise, the heat produced can be distributed and used or stored for longer periods of time and used to make ancillary heating processes more efficient. By working with ENCORE Efficiency to replace three traditional compressed air units with two efficient air compressors on one production site, the dairy producer was able to significantly lower its carbon footprint and reduce CO2 emissions by over 170 tonnes annually. Other innovative projects, such as industrial heat pumps combined with very efficient modern refrigeration systems or electric steam boiler systems, lead to even higher CO2 and energy savings.
Overall, ENCORE Efficiency has identified more than 300 individual energy efficiency measures across the dairy producer’s processing sites, many of which ENCORE Efficiency expects to implement over the next 5 years. Given that the dairy producer processes billions of kilograms of milk annually into a wide range of products, the potential for efficiency improvements, and consequent CO2 reductions, is substantial. Through its ongoing collaboration with ENCORE Efficiency (in partnership with Solas Capital), they have been able to more rapidly unlock this potential and integrate renewable energy sources into its operational processes.

### District Heating Organizations Maximize Flexibility With Thermal Storage At Zero Operational Risks
District heating companies are introducing renewable energy sources to replace fossil fuels. Such energy generators operate at lower temperatures than conventional ones, which changes operating strategies and increases complexity, especially in times of high demand. To maintain operational and economic stability, district heating companies are taking various hardware and software measures. Thermal storage solutions (also known as buffers or accumulators) offer additional flexibility of action and have become an important asset for companies. However, the question remains: how and when to use thermal storage? 
To leverage all possible thermal storage benefits, many questions need to be answered. When is the most optimal time to charge and discharge the thermal storage? And what source is charging the buffer with what temperature – and how much energy will be stored? What companies need is real-time insights into their accumulators, combined with end-to-end data that shows them when to do what. Here are three key factors that explain why this is key for accumulator success: 
1. The network impacts how much heat is available in the accumulator 
2. External price signals change every day and throughout the year 
3. Production schedule changes daily based on demand 
To optimize the operation of thermal storage with flexibility and reliability in mind, organizations need to consider all the aspects of the heating system, from end-user demand and network dynamics to production schedule and electricity market volatility using end-to-end digital tooling such as Digital Twins. 
Mantova's district heating operator, SEI, has implemented a Digital Twin solution that allows it to dynamically optimize temperatures for peak demands by providing a real-time, end-to-end view into the decentralized thermal storage. With one of the objectives to reduce peak temperatures to lower overall heat losses, the Digital Twin solution forecasts supply temperatures as well as charging/discharging cycles at the same time. As a result, the amount of energy stored is optimized, and sudden supply peaks are avoided. Together with other insights from the Digital Twin such as implementation of the recommended operating parameters, SEI increased its heating grid's real-world efficiency and a decrease in annual CO2 emissions of over 550 tons.

### Revolutionizing Energy Efficiency in Paper Industry
In response to rising energy costs, industrial companies are seeking innovative ways to enhance energy efficiency. A notable example is La Papeterie du Léman, a French paper mill that has managed to save 1 tonne of steam per hour and 12.5 GWh of energy annually with the help of Alfa Laval heat transfer solutions. The company aimed to recover the condensate from their dryer efficiently, which was achieved by using the thermal heat from the condensate to preheat the water in their steam production process. The main challenge was transferring the steam upstream close to the boiler due to its high propensity for clogging. However, with Alfa Laval's heat exchangers, this issue was resolved, and the project was completed successfully within a year. The heat exchangers, strategically placed at the dryer outlet and where the machine waste goes to the sewage treatment plant, have proven to be the ideal solution for passing loaded fluids and maximizing heat extraction from the condensate without causing clogging.

### Baltic Queen vessel sees energy efficiency increased and emissions cut by 13% as a result of technical upgrade, leading also to financial savings
Nordic shipping giant Tallink Grupp has recently analysed the initial results of the most recent technical upgrade to its Tallinn-Stockholm route vessel Baltic Queen and found that the upgrade has led to a significant 13% increase in energy efficiency (i.e., the amount of fuel needed to travel 1 nautical mile has reduced by 13%) and reduction in emissions in the same amount in the last nine months. 
The technical upgrade, carried out during the ship’s regular docking in Naantali, Finland last September, involved the replacement of the vessel’s propeller blades with new innovative ones designed and manufactured by the Swedish subsidiary of global maritime technology experts Kongsberg Maritime, Kongsberg Maritime Sweden AB. The blades were designed specifically for this type of ship, considering the speed ranges required for the ship's operation, enabling to increase the efficiency of the ship's propulsion device in accordance with the ship's operational needs. In addition to reducing the vessel’s fuel consumption and emissions, under water analyses carried out in autumn 2023 also showed reduction of underwater noise generated by the ship.
The results of this technical upgrade, coupled with other technical and operational solutions implemented to reduce Baltic Queen’s environmental impacts, have led to the ship’s Environmental Ship Index (ESI)* now being comparable to those of the company’s newest and most environmentally friendly dual-fuel shuttle vessels Megastar and MyStar. With Baltic Queen’s ESI index now exceeding 94 points (maximum is 100 points), this has also led to considerable financial savings for the shipping company, as the Port of Tallinn offers vessels with ESI points exceeding 80 a 14% discount and any vessel exceeding 65 points an 8% tonnage charge discount. All Tallink Grupp’s vessels visiting the Port of Tallinn have an ESI index exceeding well over 65 points, so all receive an environmental discount from the port as a result. 
Commenting on Tallink Grupp’s latest environmental success, the company’s Chief Captain and Head of Ship Management, Captain Tarvi-Carlos Tuulik, said: 
“We carried out an extensive analysis before the new blades pilot project in close partnership with the blade manufacturers and our main engine manufacturers. Our crew had lots of questions ahead of the upgrade about the ship’s performance and manoeuvring capabilities once the blades were replaced as we had no experience with this kind of technical solution before. However, the support and cooperation with the technology manufacturers was superb, we were able to discuss and consider every possible risk, fine-tune the solution after installation based on our captain’s and crew’s feedback and suggestions, and the result speaks for itself – it definitely exceeds our expectations.  
„This project really is a win-win-win for us as it has enabled us to increase efficiencies, reduce fuel consumption, reduce emissions, reduce underwater noise and vessel vibration levels, significantly increase the overall comfort levels for passengers travelling in the stern cabins, and, last but not least, achieve considerable cost savings for the company. It has been good for the environment, our customers, and our bottom line. All we need to do now is identify more projects like this.“ 
Tallink Grupp is now assessing the benefits of similar upgrades to the company’s other vessels and, where possible and beneficial, similar solutions will be considered for other company vessels. At the same time, Tallink Grupp will also continue its search for other new and innovative solutions that will enable it to continuously make its operations more sustainable.

### Innovative Energy Efficiency Solution at Arlanda Airport
Arlanda Airport, a major hub for Scandinavian air traffic, has successfully optimized its energy efficiency, achieving annual energy savings of 19 GWh, equivalent to the energy used by 2,000 average-sized Swedish single-family houses. The key to this success was the use of an underground thermal water storage system, which utilizes the largest known aquifer located under the airport. The system, provided by Alfa Laval, stores hot water during the summer for use in the winter and vice versa, eliminating the need for chillers, heat pumps, and fossil fuels. Since its implementation in 2009, the system has not only achieved the projected energy savings but also reduced CO2 emissions by nearly 7,000 tonnes annually. This project serves as a model for energy efficiency and has earned recognition for its significant contribution to reducing environmental impact.

### Industrial heat recovery turned into district heating saves 240 GWh annually
Heat recovery made possible by Alfa Laval plate heat exchangers
About 65 MW of heat is generated in sulphur-burning acid plants with a daily capacity of 1,000 tons. Around two-thirds of the heat originate from the sulfur burner and the converter. Most acid producers know how to recover this heat for production of high-pressure steam. However, the remaining one third of generated heat is usually emitted into the sea or the air in direct cooling systems. The plate heat exchanger makes it possible to economically recover the heat from the circulating acid in the drying and absorption towers. By installing a closed loop of cooling water, the heat can be used for other purposes such as district heating, boiler feed water preheating, process heating in adjacent plants, space heating of factories and offices and production of fresh water by desalination.
From direct cooling to heat recovery
In early 1980s, Kemira changed its acid cooling system from direct cooling to heat recovery. In the direct cooling system, the heat from the absorption and drying towers was emitted to the sea. With the heat recovery system, the heat is instead transferred to a closed loop cooling water circuit containing demineralized water. This water is heated, and the hot water is used to heat district heating water for the city of Helsingborg.
In this heat recovery system, the acid from the absorption towers was cooled in four anodically protected shell-and-tube heat exchangers connected in parallel pairs. The acid from the drying tower was cooled in an anodically protected shell-and-tube heat exchanger.
By 1999, the lifetime of the anodically protected shell-and-tube heat exchangers had come to an end, and they needed to be replaced. At the same time, Kemira decided to totally rework their acid cooling system. Instead of using three acid tanks (one for each absorption tower and one for the drying system), they installed one acid tank, supplying both the drying system and the two absorption towers with circulating acid.
All the old coolers were replaced with three semi-welded Alfa Laval plate heat exchangers in D205 with FKMS gaskets, connected in parallel. The D205 plate material and the FKMS gaskets were selected due to the high acid temperature of 105°C.
New system leading to large energy, emissions, and cost savings
In the Kemira sulphur-burning acid plant, with a capacity of 1,000 tons per day, around 530 MWh is recovered from the drying and absorption towers per day. This heat is delivered to the district heating network of the city of Helsingborg. Kemira delivers a total of 240 GWh per year to the network.
This is equivalent to around 22,000m3 of oil, corresponding to approximately 25% of the city’s requirements. Of this total, 80 GWh is supplied as steam and the remainder is heat recovered from the drying and absorption towers. This means that during the winter months heat is provided to about 10% of the city’s inhabitants but in summertime Kemira supplies all heat needed for domestic water.
The total cost for the heat recovery system introduced in the early 1980s was 45 MSEK (including a 3.5 km long pipe to the district heating center). The payback time for the system was less than a year, since at the time Kemira supplied heat to the city worth 80 MSEK annually (due to higher acid capacity). The switch to a common acid tank for all three towers and new acid coolers in 1999 cost 10.5 MSEK. Calculated in today’s oil prices, the value of the heat supplied to the city is approximately 22 MSEK annually. As a result, the payback time was again less than one year.
For the city of Helsingborg, this arrangement means less dependence on oil and thus reduced emissions of sulphur dioxide into the air. Furthermore, the project eliminated the need for a new 45 MW co-generation unit, which would have cost the city 150 MSEK in the 1980s.
For Kemira, the delivery of heat has become an important complementary product to sulphuric acid and other chemicals. It has also nearly eliminated the need for cooling water.
Controlled temperature meeting seasonal variations
The demineralized water circuit heats the district heating water from 50 to 80°C in two of Alfa Laval’s large plate heat exchangers having a temperature approach of only 4°C. The temperature in the district heating circuit can be raised to 90-95°C by injecting waste steam from the sulphuric acid plant. Two of Alfa Laval’s medium-size plate heat exchangers are used as trim coolers in the demineralized water loop whenever needed to meet seasonal variations in demand for heating. The trim coolers are by-passed when they are not needed.

### Smart sensor data aids Bangkok’s with water loss prevention 
To overcome this challenge, the MWA needed to gather in-depth data from across the Bangkok water supply, so it decided to increase its install base of flowmeters. It has been using ABB AquaMaster flowmeters since 2007, and it increased the total number to over 400 with the help of ABB Channel Partner, Thai Meter.  
The meters were selected for their durability and accuracy, and because they eliminate the potential for error from manual data collection. They transmit data using GSM-SMS radio technology when they detect a possible leak, providing an early warning to the MWA so it can immediately begin water loss prevention efforts. The project aims to cut water losses to 19 percent by 2021.  
“To reduce water loss, the ABB flowmeter is one of the significant tools we use to provide high-resolution data that facilitates step testing, leakage detection, and water network analysis in the Bangkok Metropolitan area,” explains Mr. Supichete Tavorntaveevong, Director of the Water Loss Management department. 

### Real-time digital water management ensures clean drinking water in Indian district  
The Karnataka government needed a way to effectively monitor water flow and minimize leaks across a hugely dispersed network that includes 620 overhead tanks and 16 reservoirs. L&T Construction Water & Effluent Treatment IC, the lead contractor for the digital water management project, selected ABB AquaMaster 4 flowmeters and ABB Ability supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems.  
The digital water management project involved installing a network of RTUs (remote terminal units) for remote locations and pumping stations to track water use in real time. The SCADA systems monitor and analyze daily flow consumption patterns and identify possible leaks. They send this information in real-time to the central control room, which can deploy a repair team immediately.  
The digital water flowmeters are designed for ease of use, and do not require special cables, tools or expert training to install and read. They also integrate with GPS, making it easy to pinpoint potential leaks. A range of security features are designed to prevent tampering or data eavesdropping.  
Similar digital water flow technologies, including ABB flowmeters, are also in operation in cities across India, including Delhi, Bangalore, Surat, Ranchi, Kolkata, Udaipur, Chennai, and in semi-urban and rural areas like Gadag in Karnataka and Jawai in Rajasthan.  
G Srinivas Rao, Head of ABB Measurement & Analytics in India, says: “As India moves swiftly towards smart and sustainable villages, towns and cities, one of the key challenges is water management. This project shows how ABB’s digital water management solutions can be deployed not only in cities but also to provide clean drinking water in the villages that are crucial to our agrarian economy. We are proud partners in this project in the state where ABB India is headquartered, and in the district which contributes so significantly to our agricultural output.”

### ABB greenhouse gas sensors onboard SpaceX rocket to detect emissions 
he ABB-built greenhouse gas sensors can map emissions of methane from space at a resolution 100 times higher than any other sensor. While previously only larger regions could be surveyed, for the first time, the greater granularity of the GHGSat methane map now enables the identification of the source of the emissions. An additional nine units built by ABB were launched at the end of 2022 across the first private satellite constellation dedicated to emission measurement. 
Space offers the ideal location to freely monitor emissions across jurisdictions and quantitatively report on improvements. The ABB-built greenhouse gas sensors will provide valuable insights that will enable governments and industries worldwide to meet their emission reduction targets and reduce the negative impact of global warming. 
“We selected ABB for its ability to deliver world-class instruments while meeting the challenges of a new space company like ours,” said Stephane Germain, CEO of GHGSat. “We strive to innovate for the needs of the future, and we’re excited to work with ABB to achieve that.” 
“ABB shares GHGSat’s goal of reducing emissions through the creation of their greenhouse gas sensing constellation. Our selection as the manufacturer for these advanced sensors demonstrates our competitiveness and strong fit with the private space sector requirements,” said Marc Corriveau, General Manager ABB Measurement & Analytics Canada. 
“The space revolution is well underway, and ABB, with its heritage of unique space instruments and serial production of advanced measurement sensors for industrial applications, is extremely well positioned to serve this emerging sector,” he continued.  This marks the third GHGSat launch featuring optical sensors built at ABB’s state-of-the-art facility in Québec City. Beyond these, ABB has three more sensors ready for delivery: two designated for methane measurement, while the third will monitor CO2 emissions.  
With its involvement in the Canadian SCISAT mission and the Japanese GOSAT series of satellites, ABB has been at the forefront of greenhouse gas sensing from space for over two decades. ABB optical equipment already in space has accumulated over 100 years of reliable operation.  
The SCISAT sensor tracks subtle, long-term changes in the atmosphere’s composition down to parts per trillion. It works on over 70 molecules and pollutants and has been in service since 2003. Global weather agencies base their predictions on ABB equipment flying onboard the US National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) weather satellites (NPP and JPSS). This data saves lives by improving the timeliness and accuracy of weather forecasts for up to seven days. 
ABB is also a global leader in earthbound continuous emission monitoring, with over 60,000 systems installed in more than 50 countries worldwide. Continuous Emissions Monitoring Systems (CEMS) continuously record and evaluate emissions data across all industries. They provide important information for the environmental and economic operation of production facilities. The range includes the ACF5000, which accurately and reliably monitors up to 15 gas components simultaneously.

### Artificial intelligence and machine learning to cut energy use by 10 percent for global data center provider
Decision makers at STT GDC are considering a range of options to achieve this important goal, including alternative energy sources, optimizing water use, new construction technologies, and innovative cooling solutions. One step that the organization is already taking is applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to identify opportunities for energy optimization in its data centers.
In partnership with ABB, the STT GDC team is actively developing AI-based optimization models for the entire data center cooling plant, including the upstream chiller and distribution systems. Using sensors placed throughout the system, STT GDC will track and analyze data to facilitate dynamic cooling optimization and create a more energy efficient data center.
The first phase of the project will involve data exploration, modelling and validation using historical data. This will establish how digital solutions would impact existing operations and energy use, and reveal areas for improvement. The next phase will involve testing AI control logic in a real data center environment. The project targets energy savings of 10 percent within the cooling system – the most energy-intensive component of a data center.
“Our group’s AI roadmap will take a big leap forward with this pilot program. The vast amounts of data that can be captured and harnessed in a live data center environment makes for a strong base for AI applications, which can also be applied to other business processes, including capacity planning, risk mitigation and predictive maintenance,” explains Daniel Pointon, Group Chief Technology Officer, ST Telemedia Global Data Centres.
“At ABB, we have a strong track record of supporting data center operators with our best-in-class technology solutions.

### Heat transfer technology helps refinery reduce about 14,600 tonnes of CO₂
It is a frosty morning in Sweden’s western archipelago, a picture-postcard region where white and rust-red houses perch on bedrock worn smooth by wind and pounding waves. Fishing boats cut their way across the large fjord as a flock of seabirds circles overhead. Nestled in this idyllic landscape is one of Europe’s most modern and energy-efficient refineries – the Preem facility outside Lysekil.
Preem is Sweden’s largest fuel company and it has made sustainability central to its operations. It produces the first diesel in the world that has met the criteria of environmental sustainability certification – it’s made of 50 percent tall oil, a byproduct of the Swedish forest. The company also delivers extra energy from its two Swedish refineries – the other is in Gothenburg, just down the coast – to the surrounding area as heat, providing the energy equivalent of heating 36,000 homes. Its long-term ambition is to become entirely climate neutral. “Ultimately, we want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem,” says Gunnar Olsson, the company’s Technical Director.
The Lysekil refinary’s location by the sea is a source of inspiration for that work, says Olsson. “Being out here, so close to the coast, brings everything into sharper relief. We work and live side-by-side with nature.” Refining oil is a hugely energy-intensive process, so one area where the refinery has been focusing its efforts to reduce its environmental footprint is energy consumption. In 2012, Preem conducted a wide-ranging energy audit, when the refinery’s entire operations were analyzed for possible energy savings. The company's management decided to replace four of its traditional shell-and-tube heat exchangers at the Lysekil refinery with an Alfa Laval Compabloc welded plate heat exchanger in the atmospheric distillation process. This is one of the refinery’s most critical and energy-intensive processes, where crude oil is separated into different fractions.
And the result? The single Compabloc exchanger delivers 22.6MW of energy recovery – 7MW more than the previous installation. “The investment lowered our energy use substantially, and it’s brought down CO², sulphur and nitrogen oxide emissions,” says Olsson. In all, Preem estimates that 14,600 tonnes of CO² emissions have been cut annually.
The energy intensity of refining oil makes energy the largest cost at the facility. The Alfa Laval Compabloc exchanger results in significantly higher energy efficiency, since the temperature difference between two fluids (what is called the temperature approach) in the exchanger can be low as 3-5°C for the Compabloc exchanger to work. This allows the exchanger to recover more heat than the shell-and-tube heat exchangers traditionally used by refineries, while using significantly less plot space. In purely economic terms, the resulting energy efficiency improvements of the new Alfa Laval exchanger are worth about USD 2.2 million per year at the Lysekil refinery alone.
As the next step in its improvements to the facility, Preem is building an entirely new vacuum distillation unit – the part of the refinery process where the heavy oil residue remaining at the bottom of the atmospheric distillation is further refined. And Preem has extended its investment in Alfa Laval’s Compabloc technology and is installing these welded plate heat exchangers extensively throughout the process. “It was a pretty straightforward decision,” says Olsson. “They are much more energy efficient and compact, and the technology works even with a temperature approach of just a few degrees.”
In the refinery process, there are often major problems with residue deposits on the surface of the heat exchangers, which reduces heat transfer efficiency and increases the hydraulic resistance – a factor that can lead to reduced capacity. But Alfa Laval Compabloc exchangers in these applications have fewer problems with fouling, which leads to greater overall efficiency and sustainability gains. Fouling is something that Ibrahim Tahric, Mechanical Engineer at Preem, has experienced first-hand. There is definitely less fouling on the Compablocs compared to the shell-and-tube exchangers we use otherwise, so they require less maintenance,” he says.
Due to the risks involved in the handling of fuel and other refinery products at high temperatures and pressures, the refinery business is known for being extremely conservative when it comes to introducing new technologies. Still, Eva Andersson, Refinery Industry Manager at Alfa Laval, sees a trend among refineries that they start with testing one Compabloc exchanger in the distillation process and then make a larger investment once they have seen the results. “Both the business case and the environmental benefits for the Alfa Laval Compabloc exchangers are so strong,” says Andersson. “When I list the advantages, people often don’t believe that all of it could be true, but then they try it out and they discover that it holds up. It’s encouraging that responsible players like Preem are leading the way.”

### Energy-efficient desalination: Improving energy efficiency by 40 percent in a Singaporean desalination plant
A key piece of this strategy came online in 2021: the Keppel Marina East Desalination Plant (KMEDP), a dual-mode plant that processes seawater and reservoir water into clean drinking water. This plant alone provides 30 million gallons of water every day, serving seven percent of Singapore’s demand.  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e57qAW8ZqOE
Desalination will play an increasing role in Singapore’s water supply, reaching 30 percent of demand by 2060. However, desalination is energy intensive. To ensure that Singapore can meet its Long-Term Low-Emissions Development Strategy (LEDS) – ultimately achieving net zero emissions by 2050 – the country must invest in energy-efficient desalination.  
Powerful pumps are used throughout the Keppel Marina facility, including to draw water from either its reservoir or the ocean, depending on recent rainfall. The operator identified that the motors which power these pumps are an ideal opportunity to improve the plant’s energy efficiency.  
ABB’s WaterMaster electromagnetic flowmeters reliably monitor water flow rates and help to lower OPEX.
Following a joint analysis with ABB, experts determined that the plant could reduce its total energy consumption by 40 percent by switching to more energy-efficient motors, adding variable speed drives (VSDs) and switchgear, and optimizing processes.  
As a further benefit of these upgrades, operators have access to detailed, real-time data from throughout the energy-efficient desalination plant. They can also control it from a unified command center with the user-friendly ABB Ability™ System 800xA distributed control system. This improves the quality of operational processes and maximizes uptime, ensuring the consistent supply of desalinated water Singapore needs.  
An ABB Ability™ System 800xA distributed control system gives engineers wide visibility and precise control from a central command center.
Singapore’s Public Utilities Board (PUB) has awarded KMEDP a gold certification, and it was named “Desalination Plant of the Year” at the Global Water Awards in 2021. 
“ABB has decades of experience in creating integrated solutions for desalination plants worldwide, and ABB’s products and systems are found in all of Singapore’s water plants in one way or another. We are proud to be a part of Singapore’s water story as we continue to develop our long-standing relationship with PUB,” said JianYuan Ling, ABB’s Energy Industries Division Manager in Singapore.
ABB energy-efficient motors, variable speed drives and switchgear are in operation throughout the Keppel Marina East Desalination Plant.

### Emissions monitoring system brings Vietnamese mill closer to sustainable steel production 
Fortunately, many in Vietnam’s steel industry are taking steps to reduce emissions. The Hoa Phat Hai Duong Complex, founded in 2007, produces 850,000 tons of steel each year. Its modern synchro production line is the largest in the country. To lower the plant’s emissions and work toward sustainable steel production, the operator – Hoa Phat Group – recognized that it first needed data.  
To develop a detailed picture of the facility’s emissions, the operators installed ten ABB Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS) into 10 smoke-exhausting pipes at different production lines and workshops. The CEMS include flow and dust measuring devices, a cold-dry gas analysis system, and an integrated data transmission system.  
The system can be monitored in real time by operators at the plant, enabling them to improve productivity, optimize combustion to reduce fuel and limit emissions, and decrease operating and maintenance costs for more sustainable steel manufacturing, among other benefits. It also ensures that the plant can comply with government steel manufacturing emissions standards.  
Other facilities in the Vietnam steel production community, including Mien Nam Steel Company, Ton Phuong Nam and Ton Dong A, have also adopted CEMS technology and are working toward reducing the carbon footprint of the steel industry. Vietnamese cement manufacturers – such as Song Gianh, Xuan Thanh, Van Hoa and Tam Diep – and power facilities – including Uong Bi, Na Duong PP, Mong Duong 1, Mong Duong 2 and Nghi Son PP – also use CEMS.  
“Our longstanding presence in the country as a leader in emission monitoring technologies and our positive reputation among existing customers throughout the country have resulted in earning the customer’s trust in ABB CEMS. Our CEMS not only helps Hoa Phat to achieve its optimal performance and cost savings, but also to increase uptime through reduced maintenance and calibration time. Furthermore, CEMS data transmission also establishes visibility of emission status and allows the customer to act when necessary to minimize impact on the environment,” said Nguyen Van Tu, ABB’s Manager for the Measurement and Analytics business in Vietnam. 

### Shore to ship power connection cuts emissions in the Port of Toulon
The Port of Toulon is governed by the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur (Région Sud PACA), which aims to reduce emissions with a plan for “zero-smoke stopovers” by providing electricity to ships in port. Shore to ship power connections allow ships to turn off diesel generators during port calls. This effort will also involve electrifying ports in Marseille and Nice.  
The port’s operators worked with an ABB-led consortium to plan and execute a turnkey project for delivery in 2023. It will be able to deliver power to all the ferries at the port simultaneously, or to one cruise ship. Each vessel will have access to 50 and 60 hertz power connections for maximum compatibility.  
The shore to ship power supply will automatically adjust the energy mix to serve the vessels, combining on-site solar, lithium battery storage, and grid access. It is designed to integrate additional technologies, such as fuel cells, in the future.  
“Toulon is the first Mediterranean port to supply power to all of its docks. This is an innovative project built on an intelligent energy flow management system with a unique energy mix. With the support of ABB as well as the Région Sud PACA and our partners, we are significantly improving air quality in the port, while maintaining business activity,” says Hubert Falco, President of the Toulon Provence Méditerranée Metropolis. 
He adds: “The shore to ship power connection will eliminate more than 80 percent of pollutant emissions. It will also save 9,000 hours of vessels running on diesel annually. For the ferry activity in the city of Toulon alone, this adds up to a reduction in sulfur emissions equivalent to those of 50,000 cars in a year.”  
“We are honored to have been selected by Toulon Provence Méditerranée Metropolis to work on this innovative project,” said Jyri Jusslin, Head of Service, ABB Marine & Ports. “We commend the Toulon authorities for grasping this opportunity. It sets a course for a more sustainable future with smart systems that already exist today.”

Different approaches to substation automation
Substation automation systems are composed of many elements: those that protect equipment and those that control switches, circuit breakers and transformers are key to operation. All of these require supervision and monitoring in respect to performance and limitations.  
There are two common architectures when it comes to substation automation.
The first commonly applies to new plants, in which the designer defines the network and infrastructure topology. This circumstance is best in order to mitigate risks, compile information from the electrical system and optimize implementation costs.
The second scenario more often applies to older plants, or those in operation for a number of years. Here, plants are often without a dedicated infrastructure for electrical automation. In these plants, it is common to find several automation systems for each substation. They often utilize PLCs from various vendors as supervisory systems. The lack of a central system to manage all substations makes information exchange troublesome and plant management, as a whole, much more difficult.  
In today’s technology environment, it is essential to have an automation system capable of integrating all available information into a single platform, regardless of protection relay model or protocol.
Integrating substation automation with the process control system is the best scenario. This builds a single database, allowing for complete plant management, in terms of both operation and maintenance. Making information available anywhere in the plant also facilitates remote operation, further enhancing monitoring capabilities.
The lack of a central system to manage all substations makes information exchange troublesome and plant management, as a whole, much more difficult
Making best-case integrated system scenario a reality
The best-case scenario, having equipment from multiple vendors integrated into a single system, has become reality with the advent of IEC 61850 and evolution of substation equipment like IEDs (Intelligent Electronic Devices) and digital meters. Such integration allows several substations, with IEDs from different vendors, to be grouped into a single system.​
Known as “interoperability,” this strategy allows for maintenance of the electrical system to be done using information from the whole plant, making operation easier than ever.
Having equipment from multiple vendors integrated into a single system, has become reality with the advent of IEC 61850 and evolution of substation equipment like IEDs
IEC 61850 standard - beyond communication protocol
The IEC 61850 standard is sometimes misinterpreted as solely communication protocol; however, it goes beyond that. In order to standardize communication in substation automation, IEC 61850 is based on three principles: interoperability; freedom of configuration and long-term stability.
Interoperability, as discussed, describes the ability for IEDs from different vendors to communicate with each other.
Freedom of configuration describes the ability for vendors to use different methods and philosophies for the internal programming of the logic performed by IEDs, allowing the freedom to allocate functions to one or more IEDs.
Long-term stability refers to the process of keeping communication protocol up-to-date in such a rapidly advancing technological field.
The three principles build upon one another, freedom of configuration cannot be achieved without interoperability and long-term stability is accomplished only after the first two are adopted protocol.
For these plant-wide goals to be met, the way devices exchange data is standardized through the use of a Logical Node. A Logical Node is “the smallest part of a function that exchanges data” (IEC 61850-SER ed1.0, 2010). Each substation function is broken into smaller parts; the way data is exchanged between each part is standardized, without affecting operation. This ensures interoperability, freedom of configuration and, of course, long-term stability.
Each substation function is broken into smaller parts; the way data is exchanged between each part is standardized, without affecting operation.
Facilitating information exchange between devices
In order to facilitate information exchange between devices, two communication protocols are defined: one for communication between IED and the supervisory system, MMS; and another for fast communication between IEDs for interlocks and logic selectivity, GOOSE.
MMS protocol (Manufacturing Message Specification) is used for communication between IEDs and the supervisory system based on client-server philosophy, i.e., the IED becomes a server for the information available and the supervisory system becomes a client for that information; it is used for supervision and operational data.
GOOSE protocol (Generic Object Oriented Substation Events) is used to exchange the critical time-information between IEDs inside the network for protection, for interlocking and logic selectivity purposes. This communication is based on MAC addresses, and allows the transmission of packets in the network as fast as 3 ms. GOOSE protocol is one of the great advantages of IEC 61850, reducing the amount of wiring between cubicles in a substation to perform logic selectivity schemes greatly reduces installation time and maintenance costs.
GOOSE protocol means an end to tiresome device-by-device implementation and far less hard-wiring greatly reducing installation time and maintenance costs
Communication possibilities offered by industrial networks
All communication between the devices is accomplished following Ethernet network protocol globally recognized in both enterprise and industry environments. At this point, it’s important to note the network configuration on an industrial project.
Today, it is no longer possible to foresee an industrial scenario without communication possibilities offered by industrial networks. The need for information integration (achieved long ago in IT scenarios) has become crucial in industrial scenarios , and will become increasingly so in the future.
The above figure presents a generic and minimalistic network topology of an electrical automation project in IEC 61850. Included is substation equipment like circuit breakers, switchgear etc., (given by iP ASS Switchgear boxes) as well as measurement instruments like CTs and VTs (MUPX and MUPY boxes), these are physically connected to the protection and control IEDs (given by boxes Bay Controller, Prot X and Prot Y), which are connected to an Ethernet switch. The switches of each substation are part of a network that is connected to protocol gateways and to human-machine interface equipment (HMI). GPS devices ar e also commonly used to synchronize time on the IEDs in order to allow the sequence of events (SoE).]
Today, it is no longer possible to foresee an industrial scenario without communication possibilities offered by industrial networks.
Advantages for the electrical system
As intelligence for protection and logic selectivity is distributed to and amongst the IEDs, the DCS can be in-charge of power management and other logics that require a higher level system view. Some functions such as load shedding, generator control, turbine management and transformer tap control can be run on the DCS. Some controllers have GOOSE interface, achieving operating times faster than 10 ms. This reduces selectivity adjustment times, taking care of the mechanical health of cabling, circuit breakers, switchgear and machines, without using hard wires. 
Another advantage provided with the advent of IEC 61850 is the generation of trend data for all equipment in the electrical system. Digital meters already have communication drivers, soon CTs, VTs, circuit breakers and switchgear will enter the market with the same. Soon, operators will be able to see a system even more integrated than currently possible, through a single standard of network

Integrated system real-life example at Vale Itabira mine
Information integration brought by the use of IEC 61850 protocols, especially interoperability, is better visualized through a real-life example. This section covers the integrated electrical automation system of Itabira, the iron ore beneficiation plant in the city of Itabira-MG, Brazil.
In this particular system, six substations were integrated into a single system. The involved substations are located in different places throughout the city, separated by distances up to 30 km.
Integrated system with six substations located in different places throughout the city, separated by distances up to 30 km
IEDs in use are from two different vendors, because retrofits were made at different periods and under different contracts.
The supervisory system is from a third vendor, it communicates with the IEDs via MMS protocol for system operation and supervision. Due to the large distance between the substations and the risk of lost or weak communication signals, a contingency solution is in place for each substation.
This contingency plan consists of a human machine interface touch-screen panel and a controller with GOOSE interface able to transfer data to and from IEDs, ensuring remote operation of circuit breakers and switches. This achieves the main project goal: to keep the operator away fr om the electrical cubicle, and consequently, away from electrical risk.
With IEC 61850, it was possible to get all the available information gathered in the same system, making electrical system operation possible regardless of where the operator is. Protocol adoption also allowed for the communication between IEDs, from different vendors, located in substations with notable distances between them. With the information centralized through Ethernet networks, the creation of a remote operating room was possible. From this room an operator can view everything that is happening in the system. IEDs can be parameterized and configured from anywhere with access to the system, adding yet another benefit to this standard.
After the project was completed, remote operation and maintenance was guaranteed and information from six different substations was integrated into one single system.

Note the common process and power automation workplace.
Advantages for the process control system
The adoption of Ethernet-based systems allows open protocols to be used more often, creating more complete automation systems, and thus, optimizing costs and information availability in plants of all sizes.
There still remains a strong separation between the electrical automation system, responsible for power management, and the process automation system, more focused on the production, in a way that there is little or no exchange of information between the two.
Increasingly, plant operators are opting to have a single system manage the entire plant, looking for excellent performance in both Process and Electrical automation, through a unique DCS system.
Among the advantages stemming from integrating electrical system with process control, cost reduction is key. This includes indirect costs shared between areas, such as training and investment. In addition, new features can be implemented with the combination of information.
Cost reduction is key: sharing indirect training and investment costs between areas and preventing equipment damage thanks to combined information
Examples of IED interactions with process equipment
An example of such new features can be found in the adoption of medium voltage protection relays for motor control in IEC 61850, in which it’s possible to use all the benefits of GOOSE messaging between IEDs without losing the interaction with process equipment, such as instrumentation, valves, and inverters.A real case for this functionality can be given by a conveyor that handles ore, steel or any other goods.In these cases, it is not uncommon for big medium voltage motors to be required for operation. In the event of failure, replacement is almost never immediate, causing damage and loss of production. Using features from the substation automation environment, like logic selectivity and interlocks, it’s possible to preserve equipment health.The following figures show that, using IEC 61850, it is possible to switch off motors before over-current effects are detected by CTs, lowering the impact on the motors, thus increasing their life cycle. This reduces the likelihood of damaged windings or more serious problems that would demand replacementor extended downtime.

Dramatic changes in established practice
The availability of quality system data is necessary to day-to-day operation, increasing demand for useful information in all areas including the industrial environment, and causing dramatic changes in established practice.
With the advent of IEC 61850, more information is collected from the electrical automation system, with Ethernet communication and data standardization. This enables interoperability and allows for freedom of configuration with IEDs from different vendors. With such a wealth of data available in supervisory systems, the information integration between automation systems allows multidisciplinary decisions to be made. This provides better efficiency. Moreover, applications developed for the electrical environment can be used in process control system as well, which is seen in the examples described.

### Saving Energy for Wastewater Companies
Archimedean Screws
These are often found on the inlet or used for returning the RAS to the inlet. They are often large powers and expensive to repair. Inverters can offer:
Up to 15% energy savings
Reduced revolutions leading to longer screw life
Reduced lifetime costs
Smoother flows (less on/off control)
Smooth starts reducing stress on V belts and gearboxes
You can read a case study about inverter technology on Archimedean Screws here.
Aeration
Sewage works often need aeration whether it be from surface aerators or blowers. These can be the site’s biggest electrical cost. Controlling the DO levels ensure an efficient works. Inverters offer:
Accurate DO control
Energy saving
Centrifugal Pumping
Centrifugal pumps are used in many and various applications in sewage works and pumping stations. They can be used for recirculation, RAS flow control, SAS pumping, storm pumping, sand filter pumping, washwater pumping and probably many others. If you can control the speeds and pump for longer you can save energy based on the well-known ‘Cube Law’. Inverters offer:
Potentially large energy savings
Controlled flow rates or pressures
Smoother flows
Reduced pipework stresses
Sludge Pumping
Sludge is pumped from the bottom of PSTs, Humus Tanks and clarifiers. These are often on simple on-off timer control. This means that there will be times when water is pumped and not sludge. IDS and EMS offer APS (Automatic Pumping System) which uses inverter calculated torque to avoid pumping water. The benefits are:
Significantly shorter pumping times
Reduced volume of pumped sludge
Less manual dewatering
Reduced tanker journeys
Controlled and improved sludge quality

### Real-time data improves efficiency for sustainable chemical production
The site’s switchgear was becoming crowded, making it difficult to add new equipment to the system. Some of the existing equipment was over fifty years old, well beyond its estimated service life. This additional complexity made servicing a challenging process. Decision makers agreed that the facility was overdue for an upgrade.  
ABB experts conducted an in-depth analysis and recommended replacing the entire system. To minimize downtime, the entire project was completed in just six weeks and took place in steps while the businesses maintained full production.  
The new system uses two incoming 132 kilovolt (kV) lines through two parallel switchgear and transformer circuits feeding down to two 6 kV networks. All of this is controlled and monitored from the safety of the operator control room using System 800xA.  
The system enables rapid switching between several operating modes as well as real-time monitoring and alerts. This greatly increases its reliability and resilience. It also improves the facility’s energy efficiency by providing a clear picture of energy consumption. Where operators previously had to make decisions based on a monthly bill, they now have in-depth data down to the second.  
“In a stress situation, for example, power failure on an incoming cable, we can go into the automation system and reconnect the entire 6.35 kV switchgear from pre-programmed sequences,” explains Arne Jönsson, electrical manager at Kemira Kemi. “We know what needs to be done and then the system knows the order in which it will happen. No need to run in front of the cabinets and control the switches.” 
He adds: “When we had a cable failure on the grid, half the plant was dead, but through a few keystrokes in 800xA we linked to another mode and the entire facility had power again after 15 minutes. If it were not for the parallel design, a cable failure would have caused several days of shutdown.”  
"Plant analysis conducted by ABB pointed to the risks of service disruptions to the former electrical system"

### Formula E a gamechanger for sustainability in transport and logistics 
The partnership between ABB and its official founding and logistics partner, DHL, offers mutual benefits beyond the two companies, extending to their respective customers. Partners of each business, such as Formula E, benefit from ABB’s energy-efficient technologies, data-driven insights, and service expertise integrated into DHL’s value chain through digitally connected devices.  
Simultaneously, this strategic alliance paves the way for reducing the carbon footprint of ABB’s products and services, contributing to more sustainable logistics and supply chain activities.  
Logistics represents a significant opportunity for reducing carbon dioxide emissions, as it underpins all products, services, and events through interconnected supply chains reliant on transportation and logistics. For example, transporting the championship’s freight city to city is a monumental task. Nearly 450 tons of freight must be moved – sometimes as far as 17,000 kilometers in one go – around the world.  
Transportation alone is responsible for 30 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions. As a result, ABB and DHL aim to optimize energy efficiency across the series’ entire supply chain. Whether it involves enhancing transportation methods, streamlining logistics facilities, or adopting sustainable routes, their joint efforts can foster greater sustainability in the logistics industry. This collaboration contributes to a greener planet, benefiting all stakeholders involved.  
Manuela Gianni, Head of DHL Motorsport Italy, says: “By 2030, we will be investing seven billion dollars in sustainable logistics. Our partnership with Formula E has inspired us to come up with new, innovative solutions to be on par with what they want to achieve, which is a 100% renewable energy target for all events.”

### Nasta eliminates 48 tons of annual CO2 emissions through electrification of construction equipment 
Nasta’s electrification of construction equipment started in 2019 when it won the contract to provide emission-free construction machines for a roadbuilding project in central Oslo. After completing the project, the company entered into talks with ABB, subsequently appointing them to supply all powertrain components along with knowledge-sharing on energy efficiency, sustainable construction equipment, and emission-free operations.    
The conversion process involves the removal of the current fuel tank and diesel engine, followed by the installation of an electric motor and drive, an energy management system, a battery and charging solution, and a power connection. ABB supplies the electric powertrain components, comprising the AMXE motor and HES880 drive, and provides technical advice.  
The electrification of construction equipment provides clear environmental benefits. A conventional diesel-powered 24-tonne excavator consumes about 18,000 liters of fuel annually, translating into around 48 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. With the conversion, these CO2 emissions, including sulfur oxide (SOx) emissions, are eliminated. The inherent efficiency of electric motors is much higher at 95 percent as opposed to a diesel engine’s 45 percent while producing significantly less noise pollution.  
Reducing carbon emissions in construction enhances the environment, benefiting both site workers and nearby residents. Additionally, operators have told Nasta that the electrified machines are much more responsive when performing excavation tasks.  
Sjur Wethal Helljesen, a senior consultant at Nasta, comments: “Working with ABB, we not only get rugged and reliable powertrain components but also the technical support we need to complete the electrification projects successfully.” 
Magnus Nordstrand, global product manager at ABB Motion, concludes: “Nasta’s redesign approach is a perfect match for our electric powertrain. Our drive is highly versatile and can be installed as a motor inverter, bi-directional line converter for grid connectivity, or DC/DC converter for the battery interface. Nasta’s current redesign solution includes a battery capacity of up to 300 kilowatt-hours (kWh), enabling the vehicle to operate for four to six hours.” 
In Norway, heavy vehicle distributor Nasta is converting diesel-powered machinery to electric power, increasing energy efficiency and reducing emissions. Watch the interview here.

### An electrical future for transportation
When it comes to transportation, the opportunities for improvement are obvious. Moving people, goods and raw materials accounts for almost 30% of worldwide carbon dioxide emissions. Moving away from fossil fuels and introducing electrical power is one way that we can help meet the sustainability targets that have been set. Together with industry partners, we are leading the green transition in all areas of transportation, from mining to marine.

### 5 things about e-mobility and heavy vehicles
Read the white paperDiscover how electrical powertrains can transform the efficiency of industrial vehicles, transportation and marine vessels.Read the white paper
1. Transport is responsible for 30% of global emissions
Vehicles which transport people, goods and raw materials account for over 25% of the world’s total energy consumption and they are responsible for almost 30% of global CO2 emissions. About one quarter of these emissions come from heavy vehicles like trucks and buses.
2. Electrification improves efficiency
Electric powertrains are more efficient than petrol or diesel driven powertrains and they do not generate any CO2 emissions. A modern electric powertrain for a heavy vehicle like a bus or train will include a traction inverter and electric motors. Electric motors can typically reach 95% efficiency, which makes them much more efficient than either petrol or diesel motors. In addition, traction inverters significantly reduce losses in the traction chain because they control the speed and torque of the electric motors directly, rather than using clutches or gears, which lose energy through friction and heat.
3. The technology is proven
The electric powertrain technology needed for heavy vehicles is mature and proven – it is already widely used in buses, trolley-buses and trains, for example. Electrification of these types of vehicles has demonstrated clear improvements in efficiency, while also reducing emissions and operating costs.
4. Heavy industrial vehicles can also be electrified
Specially designed heavy-duty electric powertrain components are already available for use in heavy industrial vehicles like trucks, excavators and mining machines. These can use battery power or overhead catenary power lines, as well as hybrid diesel-electric systems. Electric propulsion systems are also available for small to mid-size marine vessels, while for larger vessels, alternative fuels and power storage systems are under development for hybrid electrical propulsion.
5. Electrically powered vehicles can be more productive
Not only are electric powertrains are more efficient than mechanical powertrains, they also deliver power to the wheels more efficiently. This is a benefit for vehicles that haul heavy loads and it can improve productivity, as well as efficiency – simply put, each unit of energy does more useful work per tonne.

### 4 things about how data can drive energy efficiency
Read the white paperRead the white paper to find out what energy efficiency solutions are available now and how you can make better decisions to reduce your energy consumption.Read the white paper
1. Energy efficiency is an essential business driver
By combining advanced analytics and expertise, data can be brought together to give companies the knowledge and visibility they need to make better decisions about the energy efficiency of their motor systems. This can include data about motors, drives, entire powertrains and other connected equipment, as well as the equipment age and condition, its power consumption and performance, and the demands of the application, including load characteristics. Once enough relevant data has been gathered, then it can be analyzed and assessed, and used to develop the best long-term strategy for modernization, maintenance, energy savings and reductions in CO2 emissions. Continuous monitoring can also be used to follow the performance of motor systems and to identify areas with the potential for improvements in energy efficiency.
2. Fast data access and expertise help better decision making
Together with the University of St. Gallen, ABB has conducted study to find out more about industry attitudes to sustainability and energy efficiency, and the willingness to adopt new types of energy efficiency services. The results show that the majority of people surveyed think that sustainability will become the most important business driver in the future and that energy efficiency is a topic of growing importance. In addition, another study by ABB found that 96% of decision makers believe that digitalization is essential to sustainability.
3. The next step in reducing energy consumption: implementation
With the possibilities offered by the Internet of Things and digitalization, companies can now access new types of services to improve and optimize the efficiency of their motor systems. These include services like ABB AbilityTM Life Cycle Assessments for motors and drives, ABB Energy Appraisals, and ABB Digital Powertrain Energy Appraisals. These services combine data and expertise to give companies insights into the energy efficiency of their rotating electrical equipment. Together with an expert partner like ABB Motion Services they can then use these insights to make better decisions and implement solutions that improve the energy efficiency of their operations.
4. Long term planning: mitigating risks
Although modern technology offers clear opportunities for companies to reduce their energy costs, many are still reluctant to invest in modernization. Some of the common barriers to investment include justifying the up-front costs, a desire to avoid downtime and a lack of in-house digital skills. In fact, all these concerns can be easily overcome. The energy savings gained from more efficient motor systems will typically pay back the investment in just a few year – the technology already exists to reduce motor system energy demand by 20 to 30 percent. In addition, the reliability gains provided by modern equipment will lead to reduced downtime overall, and all the digital skills needed can be conveniently provided by an expert service partner, like ABB Motion Services.

### Reducing carbon emissions and waste. Driving the tomorrow.
Read the report hereA multi-industry study on the shift towards energy efficiency and sustainability.Read the report here
In recent years, as issues related to climate change have come to the fore, the will to move towards more sustainable operations has been growing in many companies. However, although the desire to change is present, practical questions remain.
A new report from the University of St Gallen and ABB, titled Sustainable operations through energy efficiency, addresses four main objectives to support energy efficiency-related activities in industries. Firstly, the study reveals what drives energy efficiency activities. Secondly, it identifies the roadblocks preventing them. Thirdly, use-cases are revealed. Fourthly, new business models that can help boost energy efficiency are explored.
To provide data for the study, 40 interviews were conducted with stakeholders whose roles are directly related to energy efficiency. The results from 182 online quantitative surveys from different industries and countries were also used, and four academic experts were interviewed.
The results of the survey show that today more than ever before industrial companies take the topic of energy efficiency seriously. Driving an increase in energy efficiency is a wide variety of factors including the need to develop revenue streams and maintain reputation and brand image. Companies face many challenges in advancing energy efficiency agendas, but with the help of digital technologies, improved collaboration, and new business models, these issues may be overcome.

### Using a data-driven approach to find opportunities for efficiency at a sustainable pulp facility  
However, with so many motors, operators found it difficult to identify additional opportunities to improve efficiency. They needed a way to understand how electricity was really being used throughout the facility and find the motors and other equipment that were wasting power.  
Waggeryd selected the ABB AbilityTM Condition Monitoring solution. This involved placing 156 smart sensors across the facility’s entire critical line, including on motors, pumps, and other machinery from a variety of manufacturers. Ninety-three smart sensors were fitted on the motors running the sustainable pulp mill, 42 on bearings, 10 sensors on gearings, and the remaining 11 on other process pumps throughout the operation. 
The condition monitoring system measures power consumption, speed, vibration frequencies, and temperatures, providing continuous information on the mill’s operation. This data allows for regular energy-use updates.  
ABB experts analyzed the entire powertrain to identify inefficiencies that may have otherwise been missed. After reviewing the data collected from the sensors throughout the facility, they produced a report, called a Digital Powertrain Energy Appraisal. The insights it provided have helped Waggeryd pinpoint areas in which they can make additional energy savings, bringing the facility closer to its goal of producing pulp energy efficiently.  
“The report done for Waggeryd informed them about motors that are wasting energy. It identified those that have low operating efficiency, as well as others that are wrongly dimensioned and thus underutilized, contributing to waste of active and reactive energy. As first steps to make good use of this info, Waggeryd decided that it will, in the near future, modernize six motors from a top-10 motors list, thus enabling improvements and savings of both active and reactive energy,” explains Peter Isberg, Digital Lead at ABB Motion Services. 
Andreas Råvik, Mill Manager at Waggeryd Cell, is pleased with the results. “We have improved the facility’s energy efficiency by working with ABB. By using their energy reports, we can identify assets like incorrectly dimensioned motors, or old motors with poor efficiency, and replace them. The power of digitalization has also resulted in fewer unplanned production stops, as we can rectify potential errors well in advance of a breakdown. The most important thing for us is that the factory runs every hour of every day of the year, with very few unplanned stops. When we achieve a high production level, then we are truly energy efficient.”

### A beacon of energy-efficient waste heat recovery
The Aurubis Group has taken this very approach to improving sustainability in one of their smelters. Partnering with the German energy supplier enercity Aktiengesellschaft, Aurubis has become the driving force behind a district heating network that serves Hamburg’s HafenCity neighbourhood. The energy for the network comes from waste heat that Aurubis recovers from their nearby sulphuric acid plant, using unique Alfa Laval plate heat exchanger technology that is designed to resist corrosion and withstand the high pressure and extreme heat associated with the process.
The Aurubis Group, one of the world’s largest producers and recyclers of copper, operates a large smelter on the island of Peute, located in the Elbe River, in the heart of Hamburg.
Sulphur dioxide gas is a by-product of the pyrometallurgical copper process used here. This gas is converted first to sulphur trioxide and subsequently to liquid sulphuric acid. The sulphuric acid is continuously diluted in the process. Acid dilution is a highly exothermic process, which releases significant amounts of heat. Thanks to Alfa Laval GPHE, this heat can be recovered by Aurubis for use in district heating.
The sulphuric acid production takes place in the smelter’s contact plant. At the heart of the plant lies an intermediate absorption tower. The heat of dilution from this step was originally cooled with river water from the Elbe and thus left unutilized. The aim of Aurubis’ collaborative project with enercity was to use heat exchangers to recover energy from this process, and to put that energy back to use sustainably by funnelling it into the HafenCity district heating network.
High demands on equipment design and materials
Aurubis’ preliminary challenge was that hot water used in this type of district heating scheme needs to have an initial temperature of at least 90°C. As a result, they had to begin by building a completely redesigned intermediate absorption tower, increasing the process temperature of the concentrated sulphuric acid to approximately 120°C, a temperature increase of nearly 50°C.
However, this new intermediate absorption tower added further complications to the already demanding project of designing a heat recovery system involving a substance as challenging as sulphuric acid. The higher process temperature substantially increased the corrosiveness of the medium.
This posed a particularly difficult challenge for the heat exchangers in the project, which needed to be constructed of highly corrosion-resistant materials in addition to being able to handle high pressures and temperatures, and to offer extremely high thermal performance to ensure an efficient transfer of heat from the Aurubis process to the district heating network.
A heat exchanger that’s up to the challenge
Aurubis contacted Alfa Laval, who worked with the copper producer to design customized plate heat exchangers, fully adapted to the demanding process environment. The final system was comprised of eight heat exchangers featuring state-of-the-art channel plate designs. Three of the heat exchangers – the intermediate absorption tower coolers - were semiwelded units, made in Hastelloy D-205 material, a nickel-based alloy that is particularly resistant to sulphuric acid corrosion. D-205 has delivered proven performance at many sulphuric acid plants across the globe since the 1990s. With more than 300 D-205 units installed world-wide, this tried-and-tested material was the obvious choice for ensuring reliable, safe, and efficient operation. The remaining five heat exchanger in the system are fully gasketed plate heat exchangers: three water-water heat exchangers, and two acid-acid interchangers.
Unlike traditional gasketed plate-and-frame heat exchangers, the Alfa Laval semi-welded design is capable of resisting mechanical fatigue in applications with high design pressures and temperatures. The unique plate design also ensures very high thermal efficiency, with a temperature approach as low as 3°C. This means that the water medium used to transfer heat to the district heating network can leave the heat exchanger only a few degrees cooler than the hot acid entering the unit.
Additionally, plate heat exchangers are more compact, allowing for easier, more cost-effective installation in a fraction of the space.
Improving sustainability across several dimensions
Aurubis uses roughly a quarter of the recovered heat from the sulphur dioxide conversion process to support other processes at the smelter. The rest of the heat, corresponding to approximately 160,000 MWh of energy, is fed through the district heating pipeline toward Hamburg’s HafenCity district. Here, the thermal efficiency of the Alfa Laval heat exchanger solution becomes particularly important. Since HafenCity is located on the other side of the Elbe from the Peute Island, the district heating route is more than three kilometres long. Every degree of recovered heat from the process is therefore critical.
Current estimates indicate that, in addition to the what Aurubis uses at the plant site, the recovered heat supplies as many as 8,000 four-person households, as well as area offices, hotels, and a university. As the recovered heat has an effective carbon footprint of zero, the project reduces CO2 emissions by 20,000 tonnes per year – half of them at Aurubis itself. An additional benefit is that Aurubis no longer needs to rely on cooling water taken from the Elbe River, which further benefits the local ecology.
The German Energy Agency has recognized the project as a “beacon of energy-efficient waste-heat utilization.” And there is still potential to do even more. Currently, only one of the three lines of the Aurubis contact plant supplies industrial waste heat to HafenCity, meaning that 480,000,000 kWh can potentially still be recovered. In the future, this could result in a 140,000 tonne-per-year reduction in CO2 emissions.

### Sweetening the world through energy efficiency
Processing 21,000 tons a day 
The Südzucker group is a multinational producer of sugar, starch and fruit products based in Germany. With over a hundred years of history, today they produce 3.7 million tons of sugar annually at their beet sugar factories in Germany, France, Belgium, Poland, and Moldavia. The vast majority of beet sugar arrives at the factories over the 120 days of the beet season, which runs from October to January. “At our Longchamps production site in Belgium, 21,000 tonnes of beet are processed into sugar juice every day during this period,” explains Michel Benaets. Not surprisingly, for these four months the production machines run 24 hours a day, requiring a lot of energy usage over a relatively short time. It is during this period that the greatest energy and cost savings are to be realised.
Of course, we want to be sustainable.
“The initiative came from the Belgian plant to reduce costs and energy usage,” Benaets comments. “Of course, as a global company we want to be sustainable, and all our clients want to know what we do in this regard and to work with a company that has effective plans.”
The first step was to find out where the most energy was being consumed.
“We have many sources of high energy usage,” says Benaets, “for example transporting thousands of tons of beet every day requires 3000 Ton/H of water, and moving that around is energy intensive.” In fact, this transportation is the most energy-intensive part of the process. Slicing machines and pressing machines were next on the list.
Identifying energy saving possibilities. 
Südzucker cooperated with ABB to introduce tangible improvements in energy efficiency to their production processes at Longchamps. “When we looked at the entire chain,” continues Benaets, “we found the domains where the biggest potential energy savings existed. We identified the slicing machines as having the best savings potential. The results showed that replacing their six old 160kW asynchronous motors would lead to the best improvements.”
We found the biggest potential energy savings.
The decision was made to replace those motors with 134kW ABB SynRM motors which have an energy efficiency rating of IE5. And, to minimize OPEX, they were paired with ACS880 drives to ensure as efficient operation as possible. The motor exchange has resulted in energy savings of 9.14 kWh per machine or 54.84 kWh in total, equivalent a reduction of just under 120 tons in CO2 emissions. Notable economic benefits have also manifested, resulting in an overall cost reduction of 27.42% for the substation. With such benefits readily available, other companies should seize the opportunity, Benaets says. The main requirement in this regard is to effectively communicate information about the technology and its advantages, and share its successes. “We are very happy with our collaboration with ABB,” Benaets concludes, “and we encourage other companies to explore the available energy efficiency technology.” 

### An energy-efficient future for the metals industry
The iron and steel industry accounts for 7% of global carbon emissions. Part of the reason for this is the highly energy-intensive processes involved in production.
Using energy in steel production
“Steel is produced in several different ways,” explains Mannisto. “One way is to take iron ore and melt it into iro in a blast furnace. I would say that the blast furnace is the biggest energy consumer in the metals industry.” This consumption is mainly because of the large amounts of coke required to fuel such a furnace.
Smelting old steel for recycling purposes using an electric arc furnace is another method of steel production.
“Then, to form the molten steel into pipes, rods, steel sheets, or whatever product you want, you need to reformulate it. This is done in rolling machines, which use big electric motors that also consume a large amount of electricity,” says Mannisto.
And, furthermore, apart from this equipment there are many auxiliary processes that require lots of energy such as water and flue gas treatment.
With the help of new technologies, it is time for the metals industry to increase energy efficiency, says Pasi Mannisto, Segment Manager at ABB Motion.
 Identifying efficiency possibilities
“To reduce the CO₂ emissions produced by the metals industry, we have to save a lot of energy and reduce the amount of fossil energy sources that are used,” continues Mannisto. In fact, there are many areas where energy efficiency can be improved.
Small streams together make a big impact.
“Energy efficiency increases can take place for example through electrification. Other methodologies involve digital algorithms to monitor and control energy use. Then of course using the best available technology such as high-efficiency motors and variable speed drives. Even reducing harmonics in the supply network will create small streams, and small streams together will make a big impact.”
Mannisto points out that these are all methods that are available now. But in the long-term the use of fossil fuels is being reduced in favour of hydrogen and other technologies.
Changing priorities in a changing world
In conclusion, Mannisto mentions that the metals industry has enjoyed cheap energy and cheap raw materials for a long time.
We only have one globe, so we have to work together.
“Although the metals industry has been quite traditional, in recent years awareness about environmental issues has risen. Now, of course, energy efficiency and the environment are always on the agenda and more and more companies are realising that we need to do something.”
The best way to create effective change, suggest Mannisto, is to strive for mutual advances in saving costs and resources. “We only have one globe, so we have to work together. ABB work with our customers to make their processes more effective. Let’s keep on going – we have a common goal.”

### AFV Beltrame leads the way toward energy-efficient steel
Operators undertook a 360-degree energy efficiency project, including optimizing various aspects of the steel plant’s operation through investment in new technologies. The project touched every aspect of the operation, from the furnaces to auxiliary systems such as compressed air, water, pumping and smoke extraction. 
Beltrame deployed ABB motors and drives in critical processes to great effect. The drives regulate the motors speed in crucial systems such as the water pumping system, reducing energy consumption. Similarly, the drives adjust the suction power of the flue gas extraction system based on furnace activity, conserving energy during low-heat phases. 
ABB drives were also employed in packing lines, further contributing to energy-efficient steel production. Remarkably, the investments in energy-efficient equipment paid for themselves within an average of 18 months. The company succeeded in reducing energy consumption by two to three percent annually at each plant. 
“We have accomplished this through technological evolution and unparalleled attention to efficiency on all fronts,” explains Gianmaria Zanni, Group Energy Manager at Beltrame. “And we were fortunate to choose a partner like ABB. In fact, it was our maintenance and technical people who strongly advised us to select ABB products. We did some testing and found that ABB equipment is more robust and reliable in heavy processes, and in dusty, harsh environments like ours.” 
“That makes a huge difference in a steel plant because reliability is essential. If a drive failed and we had to shut down a furnace or a production cycle, the cost would run to thousands of euros per hour. Our people have also commented that when they need support with ABB products, there’s always someone to talk to. So, if any issues come up, they can sort them out quickly and easily.” 

### 4 things about energy efficiency in iron and steel making
Read the white paperDecarbonizing and improving energy efficiency in the iron and steel industry.Read the white paper
1. The steel industry is the world’s largest industrial consumer of coal.
The steel industry uses coal to meet 75% of its energy needs. Together, iron and steel making account for about 7% of total global CO2 emissions.
2. Motor systems in iron and steel plants lose up to 70% of their energy through inefficiencies
In iron and steel plants, motor systems are used to run applications like fans, compressors, pumps and rolling mills. Although these motors systems consume only about 7% of the energy overall, it’s been estimated that up to 70% of the energy consumed by the motors in a steel plant is lost and wasted due to system inefficiencies.
3. Technologies are available to decarbonize steel production
Some technologies are already in use and under development which will help the industry achieve reduce the use fossil fuels in its processes. For example, electric arc furnaces can be used in place of basic oxygen furnaces, while hydrogen can be used as a reducing agent instead of carbon and coke.
4. Modernizing motor systems can lead to significant reductions in energy costs
Applications in iron and steel making often have variable loads, which means that motor systems that rely on mechanical speed control are not operating at their optimum efficiency. By using variable speed drives (VSD) to control motors, these applications can be made much more efficient. For example, adding VSDs to the fans used in a basic oxygen furnace can reduce power demand and the associated costs by about 20%.

### Peme Gourdin improves water pump energy efficiency by 10 percent
It was during this mobilization that, in 2018, leaders of a French water supply company launched an ambitious new project. Distribution of drinking water requires the use of energy-intensive pumps and motors. Wear and tear or poor operation of this equipment can result in significant energy losses. Extensive renovation was to begin on pump stations across a major French supply network.
In this project, ABB was joined by French design and manufacturing company Peme Gourdin, which produces centrifugal pumps for use in water supply networks. The results were impressive.
By producing energy efficient water pumps that used less power and had a longer service life, ABB and Peme Gourdin delivered an estimated 10 percent improvement in the overall electrical performance of water treatment plants.
A further step was to better regulate the pressure in each station and to avoid unnecessary energy consumption, leading to improved water pump efficiency. Pumping stations were reconfigured to account for recent changes in the network, such as the number of dependent households. Where needed, new high-efficiency motors were deployed to accommodate a change in demand. Then came the recalibration exercise, for more than a hundred machines.
Jean-Marc Guibert, President of Peme Gourdin, explains: “In recent years, the theme of energy efficiency has naturally become strategic for our business. It is not only a question of meeting the demands of our customers, but also of assuming our own corporate responsibility in the face of the current climate and energy challenges. We now offer machines that consume less energy and have a longer service life.”
“The results show that the quest for energy efficiency does not necessarily involve replacing all old equipment, but also maintaining and renovating it,” concludes Laure Kleiss, Business Motion Director at ABB France. “This is not a small detail when you consider that the major players in the water sector are now seeking to improve the carbon footprint of their installations, in particular by using longer-lasting machines.”

### IKEA boosts HVAC energy efficiency by 25 percent 
For IKEA, sustainability is a significant driver of innovation and growth, and one of the fundamental pillars of IKEA’s sustainability strategy is the reduction of its carbon footprint. The company’s goal is to reduce emissions by 80 percent by 2030. 
HVAC systems often account for around 40 percent of commercial buildings’ energy consumption, so developing more energy-efficient HVAC would be a huge step towards IKEA’s sustainability goals. 
With this in mind, the energy efficiency of HVAC systems was targeted for improvement in two of IKEA’s largest stores in Spain (in San Sebastián de los Reyes and Alcorçon). The two stores cover a combined area of approximately 80,000 square meters.  
IKEA took a decisive step to reduce HVAC emissions by installing new, energy-efficient air-conditioning systems optimized with ABB drives. Specifically, IKEA selected HVAC systems equipped with ABB ACH580 and ACH550 drives, and in total ABB has supplied 15 ACH580 low harmonic drives for these systems and a complete package of standard ACH580 and ACH550 drives, with an aggregate power of 600 kilowatts (kW). 
“At IKEA we are committed to sustainability and we strive to minimize the climate footprint of our operations,” explains Qi Kai Sheng, Head of Circularity and Climate Change in the Sustainability Department of IKEA Ibérica. “The implementation of energy efficiency solutions is a basic and vital element to continue growing our business while reducing our carbon footprint. These types of solutions will allow us to be more energy efficient by reducing our consumption, something that brings us a little closer to our aspiration to become a 100% circular business by 2030.” 
Juan Bachiller, Lead Business Manager of ABB in Spain adds: “Energy efficiency has the potential to contribute to reaching 40 percent of the emission reduction targets set in the Paris Agreement, and steps such as those we are taking to improve the HVAC systems of buildings such as these IKEA stores may seem small, but together, applying similar solutions in many buildings, they can represent giant steps towards a much more environmentally sustainable society.” 

### Delivering clean water, sustainably and efficiently
In Singapore, desalination is one of the ways in which the country provides drinking water to the 5.7 million residents of the island city-state. The latest and one of the world’s most modern desalination plants, the Keppel Marina East Desalination Plant (KMEDP), was officially opened in February 2021.
Innovative technology and process optimization in water treatment plants can realise reductions in energy consumption by up to 40%, says Eng Kwang Goh, Keppel Infrastructure, Singapore.
Sustainability at the centre
“The facility is Singapore’s first large scale, dual mode desalination plant built with the ability to treat either seawater or freshwater depending on prevailing weather conditions,” explains Eng Kwang Goh, Executive Director for Project Management and Water Services at Keppel Infrastructure. “The plant was designed with sustainability as a central theme.”
“We aimed to build a plant that is a model of efficiency.”
KMEDP is able to produce about 30 million gallons of freshwater every day. But, since the treatment equipment is located underground, the only thing most people see of the facility is the rooftop park, intended for community recreation.
Within the highly advanced facility, several processes in particular lend themselves to energy savings, in particular desalination. “The process of reverse osmosis through high pressure treatment systems is one of the more energy intensive steps in the water desalination processes,” Goh explains, “and the entire treatment process consumes up to 70% of the total plant power consumption.”
“We are committed to enhancing energy efficiency in our efforts to mitigate climate change.”
Innovative planning and advanced technology have been combined at KMEDP to increase efficiency. “The direct coupling configuration of the ultrafiltration and the reverse osmosis system retains booster pressure, significantly reducing energy consumption by eliminating the need to use booster pumps, and thereby saving 15% of the energy used in a pumping cycle.”
Another example of sustainable planning comes from the compact dissolved air flotation system – a clarification process that uses millions of air bubbles to remove suspended matter from treated water – which reduces the footprint of the plant by 30% alone.
“Variable speed drives and motors have also seen rapid advancement in the past decade,” points out Goh, “with today's innovative designs delivering energy efficiencies. These technologies together with process optimization could realise reductions of up to 40% in energy consumption.”
Supporting a global agenda
With an increasing global population, greater urbanization, and the growing threat of climate change, providing clean water is ever more vital. And it is easily possible to envisage more sustainable ways of supplying it thanks to projects like KMEDP that provide not only practical benefits but also encourage other companies and industries to follow suit.
“Keppel’s proactive management of our environmental impact enables us to improve resource efficiency, reduce costs and support the global climate change agenda by prioritising innovation and energy efficiency,” Goh concludes. “Keppel is well placed to support Singapore's push towards a more sustainable water future.”

### 4 ways utilities can improve their energy efficiency in the urban water and wastewater cycle
Read the white paperImproving the efficiency of pumping systems can reduce energy use everywhere fresh water is needed.Read the white paper
Here are 4 ways that utilities can save energy throughout their systems.
1. Energy optimizationVariable speed drives (VSDs), such as the ABB ACQ580 for water and wastewater, can include dynamic energy optimization controls that are built-in to the drive. These dynamic controls automatically adapt to changes in the motor load, reducing the energy needed to deliver the required torque. In turn, this reduces the total energy consumption when the system operates below the nominal load. In water and wastewater applications, energy optimization can improve the overall efficiency of a motor and drive system by 2 to 10%. In desalination applications, the energy savings can be between 30 to 60%.
2. Energy monitoringAn important aspect of improving energy efficiency is measuring energy use and the effect of changes to the system – and ensuring that they successfully reduce energy use. VSDs can include this type of energy monitoring function built-in, which enables utilities to follow their energy use and calculate energy savings in kWh, MWh, CO2 emissions and money saved.
3. High efficiency VSD motor packagesSince the demand for water varies during the day, it’s important that pumping systems operate efficiently at partial load. A proven way to improve the partial-load efficiency of a pumping system with a motor is to add a VSD. Because the VSD can directly control the speed and torque of the motor, it ensures that the motor only does the work needed to provide the required flow. This is much more efficient than running a motor at full speed and using valves and throttles to control the flow. On average, using VSDs with high-efficiency motors can lead to energy savings of 25 to 30%.
4. IE5 Synchronous reluctance motorsMany utilities run their older motors until the end of their working life, which can be several decades. However, these older motors are usually a lower efficiency class, like IE3. Upgrading to newer, more efficient motors, can reduce motor losses and further save energy. Each IE class delivers 20% lower losses, meaning that an IE4 motor will have 20% lower losses than an IE3 motor, while a ultra-premium efficiency IE5 motor, like ABB’s IE5 SynRM motors, can reduce total losses by up to 40%. As a result, replacing older motors, even if they are still in working order, can often pay back in just a few years.
By providing energy efficiency products and solutions, ABB helps water utility customers assess energy savings potential, Surendra Muppana, Global Water Segment Manager at ABB Motion, explains.

### Digital insights speed SCA toward energy savings of 50 gigawatt hours per year 
At SCA Munksund, Sweden - one of the company’s two kraftliner mills - 400,000 tons of packaging material are produced every year. The term “kraftliner” refers to paper or paperboard produced using the kraft process, which is massively energy intensive. This energy mostly goes into powering the mill’s electric motors - more than 2,400 of them.  
But SCA’s operators understood that improving the efficiency of those motors could save a significant amount of energy. To identify where improvements could be made, they needed to better understand how the motors performed. So SCA contracted ABB to collect and analyze data from its motor-installed base before making expert recommendations. 
The solution selected for the task, ABB Ability™ Condition Monitoring, enables the secure collection of data within different parameters over time. It is tailored to a facility’s specific operation and gathers data on temperature, operational patterns, stress levels, and more. The collected data can be analyzed and used to pinpoint opportunities to improve energy efficiency, reliability, and uptime, as well as enabling predictive maintenance.  
Motors that do not meet energy-efficiency requirements can often be recycled and upgraded with new, more efficient models, lowering carbon emissions and energy consumption. In addition to energy savings, the motor-recycling process adds significant environmental benefits: securing the return of metals into the market saves a considerable amount of carbon emissions, energy, and water.  
With the help of ABB’s digital solutions, SCA is now able to unlock deep, data-led insights into its industrial production processes. This once hidden information holds tremendous value, enabling SCA to cut costs, improve energy efficiency, and bring down carbon emissions.  
“SCA’s objective is to improve energy efficiency through efficiency enhancements of at least 50 GWh per year based on the company’s energy consumption in 2020,” explains Anders Kyösti, Technical Manager at SCA Munksund. “Electrical motors account for a large part of our energy consumption. Given higher energy prices and the trend towards electrification, optimizing energy use will become even more important in the future. Information gained through monitoring and analysis is extremely helpful in increasing our energy efficiency.” 
“Through data and analysis, the true use of the electrical motors is evaluated. The real utilization in time and power output is revealed, and thereby also the total power consumption. It enables us to very precisely suggest a replacement motor and quantify the annual energy savings as well as the reduction of reactive energy consumption,” adds Peter J. Isberg, ABB Motion Services Digital Lead, Sweden.  

### 3 ways digital solutions can reduce energy costs
Read the white paperNew digital solutions enable the constant optimization of energy intensive processes.Read the white paper
1. Data-driven decision making
Before you make investment decisions to reduce energy costs, you first need to know how and where your energy is being used. However, in many industries, it is still common for electricity usage to be assessed based on the energy bill for the whole facility. In contrast, digital solutions can help you assess the energy use of electrical motion equipment, like motors, generators and drives, and identify potential energy savings and CO₂ reductions. The real data obtained, when combined with the service expertise needed to analyze it, can support you in making better decisions.
2. Identify inefficiencies
Digital solutions can also be used to identify inefficiencies. In services that focus on energy efficiency, data about energy use is continuously gathered from connected motors, generators and drives, as well as other electrical components. Expert service partners can look deeper into this data to pinpoint inefficiencies and critical areas for improvement. They can then calculate how much energy and money you could potentially save by, for example, modernizing motor systems or adding variable speed drives. Your service partner can also support you by implementing the recommended energy efficiency solutions and services to deliver substantial energy efficiency gains and reduction in CO₂ emissions.
3. Flexible business models
Depending on your needs, service providers can also offer energy efficiency solutions using different business models. For example, they may offer turnkey solutions with clear energy efficiency goals that are executed at an agreed time, date and price. Or they may offer service agreements that include multiyear execution and operational support, while sharing the responsibility to gradually improve the energy efficiency of your equipment over time and maximizing the value you get from your assets. These are examples of flexible business models that can be tailored to your operations.
In the future, outcome-based business models will also become available. These are the next step in the evolution of digital services. With this type of business model, you will buy a longer-term outcome, rather than short-term actions. Together with your service partner you will use insights from existing data to specify and agree targets and KPIs. Then the service partner will take responsibility for delivering the agreed outcomes and avoiding risks. In this way, outcome-based business models will help companies reach their goals. It is expected that these types of new business models will also be applied to energy efficiency goals.
Digital monitoring solutions enabled a cement factory to save costs and improve the efficiency of their fan systems in just 3 months.

Reliable operations and energy efficiency with digital solutions
Fran Scott, science presenter and engineering enthusiast, interviews Mari E. Haapala, Digital Lead at ABB Motion, about the many ways that energy efficiency can be improved using digital solutions, through data insights and service expertise.
There are three main mechanisms for improving energy efficiency: we can change old, inefficient motors for new ones, use variable speed drives, and monitor and optimize assets with digital solutions.
All three mechanisms offer significant opportunities. In particular, through the collection and analysis of accurate data, customers can be advised on how best to improve their energy efficiency in the future, and what kind of modifications must be made to that end.
Although transitioning to a digital business model might seem daunting, ABB’s digital solutions provide an easy way for companies to benefit from new technologies without requiring significant investment. Decades of expertise enable the accurate analysis of collected data, providing guidance for maintenance work and information on the energy efficiency of assets.

### Real Estate, Real Energy Savings
Overall, buildings are responsible for over 30% of global energy consumption. We need to reconsider how we design and operate buildings, and to choose more energy efficient designs and technologies for the future. Governments around the world are already legislating to direct things in a more sustainable direction and, for example, the European Union hopes to reduce the energy consumption of new buildings to close to zero.
“Improving energy efficiency is an ideological change.”
Good business and environmental sense
Reducing the amount of energy we use in critical processes is an excellent way to reduce the environmental impact of operations. It also makes good business sense. Shareholders are demanding more corporate responsibility at the same time as regulations require companies to commit and adhere to emission targets. And cutting energy use reduces costs.
“Improving energy efficiency in their real estate is something most big companies have on their agenda,” explains Stefan Beretitsch, Global Head of Green Real Estate at ABB. “This is an ideological change.”
Jenny Björkman, Head of Real Estate at ABB Motion agrees. “New regulations are forcing companies to reduce their energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions,” she says.
Internal energy reviews at ABB sites worldwide saved the company over $8 million and 15% energy over three years, says Jenny Björkman, Head of Real Estate at ABB Motion.
Opportunities depend on the particular facility
Different facilities have different requirements and opportunities regarding energy investment. For example, old HVAC systems are inefficient, often equipped with low efficiency motors that should be upgraded. And while a lot of heat can be generated from production processes, that heat is frequently not reused. On the other hand, the large rooftops present in many industrial facilities are the perfect place to put PV modules and generate energy on-site.
In addition to basic elements which can reduce the running costs of a building, such as good thermal insulation, modern buildings can benefit from building management systems. With these systems, the energy requirements of the building are automatically adjusted to adapt to actual needs. For example, lights can be turned off when no one is using a room, air flow and heating can be reduced at weekends or lunch breaks, or blinds can be closed when the windows are in direct sunlight.
Even in sites not directly owned by ABB, the company is involved in improving energy efficiency. “As a tenant we also put pressure on our landlords to make sure that our leased sites are energy efficient while working to improve our own sites. It is important for all owners of real estate assets to be able to provide energy efficient buildings in the future,” explains Björkman.
Identifying potential energy savings
With pressure to adopt new best practices, it is not always easy to identify the best places to make energy savings when managing large property portfolios. Adopting a structured approach is needed in order to make suitable choices regarding energy conservation measures.
“Concentrating on low-hanging fruit is not the answer.”
“Concentrating on low-hanging fruit like changing to LED lightbulbs is not the answer,” Beretitsch says. “Soon we will reach the point where there are no such fruits left, and we need to do more to better efficiency.”As a large global company, ABB owns hundreds of sites worldwide. ABB Real Estate oversees the management of these facilities, and part of their remit is to increase energy efficiency.
“We have a wide range of sites, some are very old with little or no documentation, so it can be a challenge to get a clear idea of the technical infrastructure.”
Nonetheless, between 2018 and 2020, over $8 million in savings were realized through energy savings programs at ABB sites, and greenhouse gas emissions were cut by 19.5 kilotons per year.
ABB’s Green Real Estate adopts a modular approach which gives the company the opportunity to identify energy savings potentials at their sites.
At any given site, the total energy consumption may be known but not how much usage each element is responsible for. Therefore, the first step in improving energy efficiency is to analyse the energy structure and identify the main components, their condition, and how much energy they consume. With this information, benchmarks can be created, and energy and emission reduction goals set.
Analysing potential with Rapid Energy Reviews
To assist in this analysis, ABB introduced a new tool in 2020 – the Rapid Energy Review (RER). Local specialists with expertise in energy efficiency topics and knowledge of the location help detect energy savings potential.
“The results from completed RERs have identified an average energy savings potential of 15% and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions of 18%,” Björkman explains. With such savings come a payback time of less than one year compared to the costs of the RER service.
Energy savings of 15% and reduced greenhouse gas emissions
“We provide support with the processes to Real Estate departments in different countries,” says Beretitsch, “but we don’t reinvent the wheel at each site. We create a dynamic calculation for these kinds of investments, including the effects of future energy prices.”
With a clear idea of a site’s energy structure, the second step concentrates on short- and medium-term investments. Through optimizing, upgrading and metering components and sub-systems, immediate improvements can be seen.
“The building technology is the next level of savings,” continues Beretitsch, “including things like ventilation systems, HVAC, and heat recovery. These are the main topics that appear in our reviews.”
The third and final step of the process is to focus on the entire energy system. The ultimate goal is to develop emission-free sites through long-term investments.
Walking the energy efficiency talk
The introduction of ABB’s smart products is a key part of the GRE approach. Through connected assets, data is collected and analysed in ABB Ability’s energy management solutions. These platforms deliver valuable insights and enable the introduction of effective energy management strategies.
“At ABB, we are walking the talk,” concludes Björkman. “As a company we have made binding commitments regarding achieving carbon neutrality. And we use our own technology to do so. Increasing energy efficiency in real estate needs time and investment, but we are happy to see different stakeholders engaging in energy efficiency improvements together.”

### Alfa Laval joins ABB’s energy efficiency movement at COP26 event
Commits to five percent energy efficiency improvement in operations by 2023 compared to 2020. 
Recognizing the critical role that energy efficiency can play to decarbonize 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.
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.
“We are very happy to join this important movement,” said Thomas Møller, President of the Energy Division at Alfa Laval. “Our innovative and proven solutions make a big difference. The challenge is to change the norms and drive the implementation of the technology in a wider and broader scale together with partners.”
“We appreciate Alfa Laval taking a stand on energy efficiency and joining the movement,” said Morten Wierod, President of ABB Motion. “Their commitment is inspiring and makes a real difference as businesses strive to help humanity reach a net-zero future.”

### Energy-efficient heat pumps set to enable Helsinki district heating to go carbon-neutral
In Finland, the heating of properties constitutes more than one quarter of the country’s total energy consumption. Therefore, making it as efficient as possible will be essential to meeting the ambitious Carbon Neutral Finland 2035 goal.  
An increasingly popular approach involves combined heating and cooling (CHC). Oilon produces combined, energy-efficient heating and cooling systems, such as the ChillHeat heat pump. This eliminates the need for multiple types of equipment.  
Oilon deliveries of industrial heat pumps increased by 90 percent in just two years, and the company is quadrupling production to address the growing market. As Finland’s coal power stations are brought offline, heat pumps – which can generate heat even from cold, five-degree sea water – present a sustainable alternative.  
Oilon has selected ABB variable speed drives (VSDs) for its energy-efficient heating and cooling systems. These essential components can adjust the compressor’s speed to exactly suit the load.  
“A heat pump must be able to handle different load and temperature conditions. Frequency converter control enables precise control and a large partial capacity range,” Martti Kukkola, Chief Business Officer at Oilon, explains. “Our reasons for choosing ABB are reliability, an extensive range, and equipment that is functional from a techno-economic perspective.” 
“As a technology leader, we want to be the trailblazer for energy efficiency, and by cooperating with partners, we can do more and have a greater influence in this area. It is valuable to be able to build a more sustainable future with Oilon and Helen by combining Finnish innovation expertise,” adds Mika Männistö, Sales Director, ABB Motion Finland. 

### Keeping cool and saving energy
Within the industry, the refrigeration and cooling sector is responsible for ensuring that products are stored and transported at appropriate temperatures, helping prevent wastage. Refrigeration is required at all steps of production, from chilling and freezing in a factory to cold storage in a retail display. In a food plant, it can account for more than half of all electricity usage.
Rising temperatures increase energy demands
As the mean temperature in many countries increases, these applications will be more in demand, resulting in higher energy usage. However, because cooling systems use motors and drives, it is possible to control the temperature while avoiding wasted energy through the latest energy-efficient technology.
For example, in India, where the average annual temperature is expected to rise by 4°C by the end of the century, ABB’s customer Advance Techno Systems designs and manufactures industrial chillers that utilise the latest motors and drives.
“Our company slogan is Economy with Technical Excellence. This also relates to efficiency,” Vinod Limaye, Managing Director of ATS, says. “If you compare the very old technology with the new, by using various instruments and sensors, today we are achieving around 23% power savings.”
Generally, chillers comprise an expansion valve, an evaporator, a compressor, and a condenser. Motors and drives are used to push a refrigerant from the compressor through the condenser, and to pump water or air from there through the valve to the evaporator. Improving individual components in chillers is a good start.
“By analysing the energy usage of each part, we can achieve an overall reduction in energy usage,” says Limaye. “For example, we developed an evaporating condenser that uses 70% less energy than the alternative.”
Because cooling units normally run non-stop, ensuring that only the required amount of energy is used can make a huge difference in costs and efficiency. Traditionally, industrial chillers have operated with stop-start condensers and evaporator fans, sometimes enhanced with two-speed operation.
Refrigeration and freezing are energy intensive processes. By analyzing individual components of their chillers, Advance Techno Systems in Ahmedabad have reduced energy usage in their units, explains Vinod Limaye, Managing Director. 
Using the right amount of energy
While this was acceptable for decades, modern awareness of the need to reduce energy consumption and increase the sustainability of operations has led to variable speed drives (VSDs) and more efficient motors like ABB’s SynRM being introduced. VSDs adjust the speed of the motor depending on load requirements, so only as much energy as is necessary is used. This also reduces equipment stress, cuts maintenance costs, and extends service intervals.
“With VSDs we can achieve the exact temperatures required by our customers,” Limaye explains. “This is important in chillers because reducing the temperature in the condenser by one degree requires an increase in energy of about 2.75%. By introducing certain components into the process, we can achieve a 12% energy saving compared to other products on the market.”
Because refrigeration and cooling systems are so important to our way of life, making their future operation as sustainable as possible is hugely important. Keeping our drinks cold in the future is possible through the continued adoption of newer, more energy efficient technologies in the industry.

### 3 ways to improve energy efficiency in food and beverage production
Because increasing energy efficiency offers important power and cost savings in the food and beverage industry, identifying areas where efficiency can be most improved is paramount.
Read the white paperTo meet sustainability targets we need to move to more energy efficient means of food and beverage production and reduce waste. The technology to do so exists today.Read the white paper
1. Assess energy use in your facility
In order to save energy, you have to know how efficiently it is used. But in large facilities with thousands of motors and drives in operation, identifying specific potential savings is difficult. Energy appraisals such as those offered by ABB Motion Services identify how much energy is used in different areas of a facility, and even in individual components, among other data.
After an expert in energy efficiency undertakes a thorough assessment of a process, the most effective ways to implement energy efficiency measures – and thereby reduce costs - are suggested. This service also has the advantages of improving reliability and uptime.
2. Use variable speed drives and energy efficient motors to control processes that run at partial load
Applications such as fans, pumps, and conveyor belts are frequently among the least efficient in a facility. The problem is that they often run at partial load, where the needs of the operation require less energy than is actually used. For example, a pump might run constantly at full speed, using mechanical valves to control the flow rate. The motor is therefore working harder than it needs to.
Variable speed drives (VSDs), on the other hand, control the speed and torque of an electric motor, reducing or increasing them depending on the load requirements. This increases the efficiency of the application and reduces the need for oversized motors. Typically, the addition of a VSD to a fan, pump or compressor can result in a reduction in energy usage of 25%.
3. Prevent food waste
Globally, around 14% of food produced is lost before it reaches the retail stage. In the EU, an estimated 20% of the total food produced is lost or wasted. Naturally, this is a huge source of CO₂ emissions and inefficient energy usage. While food wastage has many causes, inefficient production methods and inadequate storage or transport are important contributors.
The use of VSDs, among other measures, can help improve production efficiency, both in terms of energy and wastage. Maintaining appropriate speeds for optimum product quality in processes such as mixing, and ensuring the solidity of the cold chain required to keep food fresh, for example, help lower energy usage and improve the sustainability of the processes.
Food production consumes 30% of the world’s energy. But solutions to optimizing processes like irrigation, milling and refrigeration exist to increase energy efficiency and help feed the planet. Interview with Brith Isaksson, ABB Global Segment Manager, Food & Beverage.

### The measure of a man is what he does with power — Plato (428/427–348/347 B.C.E.) - A call to action for COP26
There are basically four things we can do to cut our carbon emissions and fight climate change:
Change the way we live and consume
Improve energy efficiency
Switch to clean energy
Boost carbon capture – natural and technological
We will need all of the above. The extent to which we need to rely on the first category depends on how well we are able to implement measures in categories 2-4.
Last week, I participated in a TIME magazine panel discussion with Jennifer Anderson from Lazard Asset Management, Julien Gennetier from Alfa Laval, and Brian Motherway from the IEA, with Mark Barton as our moderator. We focused on energy efficiency as one of the key levers for combatting climate change. Watch the whole TIME magazine panel discussion, Leading with Technology, a part of The Sustainability Series.
Energy efficiency is not an if, it’s a must. It is a simple and impactful solution to a very complex existential crisis. It’s the low-hanging fruit we need to bridge our path to a carbon-free future where all energy is clean energy. It is a low-hanging fruit because a lot of the technologies and products needed to improve energy efficiency globally already exist today. We just need to take them into use.
What then is holding us back, preventing us from doing what is needed to preserve the planet for future generations? I think nothing, actually.
I see that the change is already happening. Our customers and partners are asking us at ABB how we can help them reduce energy usage and carbon emissions, and we are doing our best to deliver and to further push the boundaries of technology for greater energy efficiency.
As we heard from Jennifer Anderson in our panel discussion, investors are putting more and more emphasis on how the companies they are investing in are taking climate change and the environment into consideration.
And as the IEA World Energy Outlook 2021 report clearly states, clean energy technology is today a major area for investment, employment, and collaboration. A clean energy revolution is overdue.
What do we need in order to speed up the transition? I think we citizens and businesses need a bit of tough love from our political leaders - clear boundaries and direction to protect the planet and humans on it.There needs to be a price tag for polluting the atmosphere. Polluting can’t be free of charge. Once that’s in place, I am an optimist. I believe market dynamics and the adaptability and innovative power of humans will take care of the rest.
World leaders have a perfect opportunity in four weeks as they are getting together for COP26 in Glasgow. The meeting has the potential to change the direction of our planet. It can show us a way out of the climate crisis. It can define how we are able to:
minimize the carbon footprint as fast as possible.
empower people and businesses to act.
keep the wheels of the world turning even if the population is growing and living standards improving simultaneously.
We need the right regulations and incentives. We need governments, investors, businesses, individuals all to do their part. There is a big KPI on the line – the future of the planet and the humans on it.
We humans have grown to be the dominant species on earth. As a negative side-effect of our growth, we have put an unsustainable amount of stress on our planet. We have the power – It’s up to us to decide how to use it. I for one am ready for a change for the better.

### Metsä Board Husum mill’s high-efficiency motors save 83,000 kilowatt hours of power every year 
The plant needed to upgrade six older 30-kilowatt (kW) DC motors which were used to drive the filter drums in one of the bleachers. The motors operate almost constantly – approximately 8,600 hours per year – so any opportunity to improve their energy efficiency would result in significant emission and cost reductions.  
Metsä Board selected ABB’s most efficient solution, SynRM motor-drive packages, to replace the old motors. Compared with the IE2-rated induction motors, the SynRM models achieve 60 percent lower losses.  
Compared with the existing motors, each SynRM motor saves an average of 13,900 kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. The six motors, combined with ABB ACS880 drives, save more than 83,000 kWh per year – the equivalent amount of electricity used to power approximately four Swedish households.  
These energy savings mean that the motors are also more cost-effective to operate. The cost of upgrading to high-efficiency models pays for itself in just 18 months.  
“We want to be at the forefront of the industry in this regard. Metsä Group has a visionary view of achieving low energy consumption, and the most effective way to achieve our self-sufficiency targets is to use less energy while producing the same amount of product. That is why the SynRM project is important: by choosing energy-efficient motors, we get higher availability and lower energy consumption at the same time,” explains Elias Agrell, Automation Engineer at Husum.  
“Replacing the older DC-motor with efficient IE5-motors offers great energy savings and a short payback time for the investment,” says Stellan Rosenquist, Product Marketing Manager at ABB Motion, Sweden. Additionally, the lower losses in the motors will decrease the temperature rise, and increase service intervals, and the overall lifetime. In summary, this investment lowers the total life cycle cost for the owner.” 

### Energy Efficient Manufacturing is Key to Indonesia’s Sustainable Growth
Great hope is now placed on the manufacturing sector to resuscitate Indonesia’s economy. The realization of new investment and provision of job opportunities in the sector are pivotal to driving post-pandemic recovery efforts in the consumer-driven economy.
By the end of 2020, the manufacturing sector was the second largest energy user in Indonesia, behind the fuel-intensive transportation sector, according to the Industry Ministry. Industry demand for electricity will clearly not disappear and will instead continue to rise steeply to support the development of digital infrastructure and expedite the implementation of the Making Indonesia 4.0 roadmap, a central point in Indonesia’s strong commitment to Industry 4.0.
Energy efficiency in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector
The guarantee of a sufficient and reliable power capacity is of great importance in promoting growth in Indonesia’s manufacturing sector. Unless there is an extraordinary situation such as major disasters or a pandemic, cutting down on electricity consumption is obviously out of the question as Indonesia strives to boost national production capacity and increase its exports-to-GDP ratio from below 10 percent currently.
While expectations are currently being realigned due to Covid-19, the Energy and Mineral Resources Ministry has projected that the overall demand for electricity will rise by 4.9 percent annually until 2030, lower than the previous estimate of 6.4 percent. A total of 41 GW of power is expected to top up the 71 GW (as at June 2020) of installed capacity by 2030, with nearly half of it to come from renewable sources.
Energy efficiency measures lower costs and reduce carbon footprints
Energy procurement costs will continue to be one of the primary operational expenses that must be borne by companies. Efficiency measures through investment in and implementation of advanced technologies are thus becoming necessities, not only to lower costs but also to reduce carbon footprints from increased industrial activities.
Realizing sustainability with energy efficient solutions
When inadequately mitigated, a fast-evolving economy and growing manufacturing sector may risk putting more strains on the environment. Globally, industry accounts for 37 percent of energy use and 29 percent of CO2 emissions, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA) in its Tracking Industry report in 2020.
The shift to renewables is important to alleviate ecological impacts from increased power consumption
It is reassuring that the Indonesian government also considers low carbon development in planning its economy. The shift toward renewables that Indonesia is attempting now, for instance, is important to alleviate the inadvertent ecological impacts from a significant rise in power production and consumption in the future.
While the transition is still underway, priorities should also be allocated to encourage wider adoption of energy efficient initiatives and technologies to ensure there is sufficient, affordable, and sustainable energy reserves in the long run. As a large percentage of all industrial electrical energy use goes to powering electric motors, switching to energy efficient motors is obviously key to reducing energy use and carbon emissions.
Additionally, the utilization of smart, variable speed drives designed to run motors based on certain needs at a specific time - instead of at full speed all the time - has been found to help reduce energy consumption by 20-50 percent, according to an ABB independent study. Through an economic lens, the implementation of energy efficiency measures by Indonesian companies had saved up to Rp3.5 trillion in costs in 2019, the Industry Ministry has said.
Tackling challenges
The aforementioned ABB research showed that if all of the roughly 300 million industrial electric motors in active service today were replaced with higher-efficiency models and equipped with drives, global energy consumption could be reduced by up to 10 percent. Such a reduction would contribute to the 40 percent of total greenhouse gas emission reductions in 2040 that matches the target set in the 2015 Paris climate agreement.
Encouraging businesses to make the swap to energy efficient technologies in parallel with its highly promising move to decarbonize its power generation sector appears to be a no-brainer for Indonesia. These steps are beneficial in meeting Indonesia’s pledge to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 29-41 percent by 2030.
As the country is currently ranked among the world’s biggest producers of greenhouse gas emissions, which also have a large impact on global warming, every measure to help make Indonesia’s pledge comes true is important and critical in fighting climate change. The energy efficient solutions and technologies that are required are already available. All it takes now is a strong joint commitment and concerted efforts by all stakeholders to ensure continued progress and achieve its climate-resilient vision of growth.

### Driving energy efficiency
Speedy entertainment
Since its first race in Beijing in 2014, ABB Formula E has served up speedy entertainment for fans around the world with 12 teams competing in the 2020-21 series. The “E” stands for electric, meaning that cars cannot use any other type of energy to power themselves. But while it is a lot of fun, there is a deeper purpose to the series, in promoting sustainable mobility and ultimately helping to counteract climate change. These goals are shared by the companies involved. “The involvement of Porsche in Formula E is part of the global strategy of the manufacturer,” says Champenois.
In ABB Formula E, managing energy is vital if you want to finish the race, explains Olivier Champenois, Lead Race Engineer for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team. But small improvements in efficiency can add up to something greater, and the technology in use in ABB Formula E is also being developed for use in road cars.
One of the company’s long-term plans is to have a CO2-neutral value chain by 2030. “A key part of the company’s strategy is electrifying road cars,” he explains. Porsche’s first hybrid racing car was released in 2010 as the GT3 R, and since then several more have been manufactured, such as the 919 Hybrid, which won the 24 hours of Le Mans endurance race three times. For regular consumers, hybrids like the Cayenne and Panamera are available, along with the Porsche Taycan, the manufacturer’s first fully electric vehicle, available since 2019.
“If you don’t manage your energy, you don’t finish the race.”
Even if the cars used in ABB Formula E have much higher specifications than road cars, the principles governing their construction are broadly the same. “If you don’t manage your energy, you don’t finish the race,” says Champenois. “What we do in Formula E is try and maximize our performance to be the quickest at the finish line with the defined amount of energy, which is quite comparable with road cars where you want to extend your range with a given amount of electricity.”
As might be expected even by the layman, developing electric cars is not an easy process despite the steps made so far. Potential difficulties for electric road cars become much more pronounced in the world of high-performance racing. One particularly striking statistic is that ABB Formula E cars use a vastly smaller amount of energy when racing compared to petrol-drive cars. “We have to do a race with the equivalent of six litres of petrol in terms of energy,” Champenois points out, while a Formula 1 car can use up to 150 litres of fuel per race: a huge difference.
Optimizing energy efficiency bit-by-bit
Unsurprisingly, when trying to wring the best possible performance out of a relatively small amount of energy, energy efficiency has a particularly important role to play. Champenois states that power train efficiency, energy efficiency and management, and the software in use all need to be considered. While the software issue is of particular importance in racing, the power train and energy efficiency elements are equally vital for road cars. “The idea of Formula E is really to push the development of technologies which can be relevant to the road cars of the future, and that is directly connected to road car development.” He also points out that different types of cars need to be optimized in different ways – driving a car on a racetrack is quite distinct from driving in a city centre.
Clearly, ABB Formula E racing cars are extremely efficient – more than 95% of the power generated is used to create movement, compared with just 65% in Formula 1 cars - but as technology advances even more gains are to be made. “The current Gen 2 car is being pushed to its limits. The big step is when we go to Gen 3. With the car that is under development now we will be able to recuperate energy under braking on both axles, at the front and at the rear, meaning a big step in energy efficiency.”
“Energy is not an unlimited resource.”
Although the racing team’s immediate goal is success in the championship, there is the hope that the technology being developed will encourage other manufacturers on the path to a more sustainable industry. “We all know energy is not an unlimited resource, and as engineers we have to develop technologies that push the world to better utilisation of this energy,” Champenois concludes.
“Energy efficiency is really one of the key aspects of the drive towards sustainability. Small increments in a few areas can make a big difference, so I would say keep pushing for those small increments, and all-in-all they will make a big difference in the future.”

### A role Model for energy efficiency
A machine for making paper is a huge piece of equipment: almost 80 meters long, powered by dozens of electric motors, and in operation 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Model Group operates two of these mighty machines at its main Swiss facility in Weinfelden. These machines generate paper for corrugated cardboard production, which takes place in the same factory.
Energy-efficient paper production is of the highest priority for paper manufacturer Model Group. Philipp Lenhard, Technical Manager, explains how, using the latest motor technology, they have reduced their energy consumption by 900,000 kWh per year.
The production of paper is energy intensive. In addition to the electrical energy needed to drive the machines, a lot of heat is required. "We get it as steam via a three-kilometer pipe from the Weinfelden waste incineration plant," explains Philipp Lenhard, technical manager at the facility. "If we were to generate this heat ourselves, we would have to burn around 20 million liters of heating oil a year." With such large amounts of energy required, increasing efficiency would result in substantial energy and economic savings.
Sustainability in the DNA
Sustainability is to a large extent in the DNA of Model Group, as recycled fibers from paper and cardboard are largely the starting materials for its products. In Weinfelden, recycled cardboard and paper is used as the starting material, which is first cleaned of any contaminated material in several steps.
The powerful second paper machine of the Model AG facility in Weinfelden was retrofitted for better efficiency.
"Recycling and energy-efficient production have the highest priority for us - from an ecological as well as an economic point of view," says Lenhard. This priority also applied to the renewal of the drive systems for paper machine two in Weinfelden. Previously installed components were reaching the end of their technical life expectancy. Frequency converters suffered from a lack of spare parts, while the motors dated from 1991 and required extensive overhauling – a cost avoided with the retrofitting.
"When planning the retrofit, it was clear to us that energy efficiency was an important element when choosing a provider," says Lenhard.
This planning had to take into account tight time frames. The machine basically runs non-stop, and only stands still for a longer time in the summer, but for just six days. During this short period, the new components had to be ready on site, installed, and put into operation.
In a first step, the frequency converters were replaced in summer 2019 with the latest ABB ACS880 Multidrives. Then, in the summer of 2020, a total of 36 electric motors were replaced with the most efficient IE4-class models, also from ABB.“The offer from ABB was very convincing, technically speaking. And we already had reason to value the support we have received from their experts in the past, from configuration to commissioning,” Lenhard points out.
900 meters of paper per minute
The corona pandemic brought new challenges to the planning for the 2020 engine retrofit, but these were well handled. “We exchanged ideas through virtual meetings, and via tracking we were also able to see where the goods were on their delivery route. For us it was of the utmost importance that all the motors were here on time, otherwise we would have lost a year.”
“Recycling and energy-efficient production have the highest priority for us.”
Delivery and commissioning worked as planned. Paper machine two was able to start up again in August 2020 - quieter and more economical than before. “According to our calculations, we can save up to nearly 900,000 kilowatt hours a year with the energy-efficient motors and converters.” This is about the same amount of energy consumed by 200 single-family houses.
Today the 2.5-meter-wide paper web runs through paper machine two at some 900 meters per minute, although the new drive solutions are capable of running at a speed of one kilometer per minute. In addition, the new motors run at only 1,000 rpm – 33 per cent less than previously. This has made it possible to optimize or eliminate gears, thereby significantly reducing friction.
The final result of the retrofit is increased production speed, significant energy savings, and a return on investment (ROI) of five years at most.
Model Group
Model Group develops, produces, and supplies high-quality packaging made of solid and corrugated cardboard, from simple transport packaging to highly refined chocolate and perfume boxes. The group has subsidiaries in eight countries. The main markets include Germany, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Poland, Benelux, Austria, France, Slovakia, Croatia, Slovenia, Hungary, and Bosnia-Herzegovina. The company's headquarters are in Weinfelden, Switzerland.

### 4 reasons to upgrade to modern motor systems
Cut energy costs now
By implementing new technologies and industry best-practices, energy efficiency can be improved by up to 30%.
Globally, electric motors account for almost 70% of electricity used in industrial applications. And 45% of the world’s electricity is used to power electric motors in buildings and industrial processes, including data centers, steel factories, food processing plants, and packaging centers. Unfortunately, most of the electric motors installed in these facilities are outdated and inefficient. This means that most businesses which rely on motors could cut their energy costs now, simply by modernizing their motors systems.
By implementing new technologies and industry best-practices, energy efficiency can be improved by up to 30%.
Only pay for the energy you need
When added to an existing motor of a pump, fan or compressor, a variable speed drive can typically reduce power consumption by 25%.
About 70% of industrial motors are used to power fans, pumps and compressors. Most of these operate at partial load, with the motor running at full speed while the speed or flow of the application is controlled mechanically using brakes, throttles or valves. In contrast, using a variable speed drive to control motor speed and torque directly, prevents energy being wasted by mechanical speed or flow control. This means that the motor system will only use the amount of electricity that is actually needed, when it’s needed, and no more.
Read the white paperGlobal electricity consumption could be cut by as much as 10 percent through the adoption of highly energy efficient IE5 motor technology, especially when replacing obsolete equipment. Changing only one motor can make a difference.Read the white paper 
Ensure future compliance
Upgrading to the most efficient motor technology available will help ensure future compliance.
Regulations are in place to help drive industry to update the installed base, however, these regulations typically specify the minimum acceptable energy efficiency standards. In fact, the latest available motor technology is already significantly more efficient than regulations require. For example, in the US, NEMA actively supports adoption of Premium efficiency motors (equivalent to IE3) to improve efficiency throughout the market. However, ABB’s EC Titanium technology delivers ultra-premium efficiency (equivalent to IE5), which is considerably more efficient than the minimum requirements, and it delivers 40% lower losses than Premium efficiency motors.
Since energy efficiency regulations are likely to get tighter over the upcoming years, it makes sense to upgrade motors to more than the minimum standards in advance. This will enable easier compliance, as well as bringing clear energy and cost savings.
The conversation about energy efficiency is changing. New technologies enable us to save more energy than ever before, explains Jesse Henson, President of ABB’s NEMA Motor Division. 
Benefit from overall life time savings
Upgrading technology now will pay back in savings for the rest of the application life cycle.
Although many older motors are still in good working order, they are built to meet older, outdated efficiency standards. This means that the whole system is running at a lower than optimum efficiency level, which will continue to add unnecessary costs throughout the lifetime of the application. As a result, it is well worthwhile updating a working motor to improve system efficiency before the end of its working life. The long-term savings far outweigh the initial costs and, in fact, the initial investment can often be paid back in as little as one to three years.

### Engineering a way out of a crisis
ABB Motion’s Sustainability Challenge 2021 put future engineers to the test
The competition – open to Swedish University and College students – was themed ‘Developing the most sustainable solution for a better world’. Launched in April, the contest brief pointed out that ‘the energy that does not need to be consumed has the least environmental impact’, a message that Carl took to heart while developing his entry.
“Being creative on demand was a challenge,” he says, “but I found that it was possible to work around this issue by inverting the problem. If you instead investigate reasons not to use energy efficiently, you have an easier time locating possible sources of the problem.” One issue that can prevent uptake of more efficient motors is the cost.
Carl’s solution, called “Charge per Energy”, seeks to reduce the number of inefficient motors connected to the grid. The idea is to charge customers a fee per megawatt hour for the use of an electric motor, rather than needing to purchase one themselves, thereby transferring the financial risk to ABB and ensuring that more energy efficient motors reach the market as quickly as possible.
“The fee per megawatt hour can be adjusted to ensure that the customer’s running costs remain unchanged,” explains Carl. “At the same time, the customer gets greater value for money as the new motors will have a higher availability factor.” Replacing inefficient motors has a great effect, helping to reduce energy usage and carbon emissions.
Engagement and opportunity
ABB Motion’s Sustainability Challenge aims to engage students with the pressing issue of energy efficiency. “When a third of all electricity consumption is spent on driving motors in the world, it is of the highest priority that we use as energy-efficient motors, generators and drive systems as possible", says David Bjerhag, Regional Division Manager, ABB Motors & Generators.
36 entries were submitted, of which ten were chosen as finalists. “This has been a really fun competition and a great way to have an exciting dialogue with students who are passionate about future energy solutions,” Bjerhag continues. “Carl's competition entry is both innovative and implementable and shows a deeper thinking linked to business systems that facilitates transactions between the parties".
Carl, who studies Energy Systems as part of his Master’s degree in Engineering, will start a summer job at ABB Motion in Västerås, Sweden as part of his award for winning the competition.
Carl believes it is possible to ‘engineer’ our way out of an environmental crisis, so his fellow students have a major role to play in improving sustainability. “Many talented engineers are educated each year and I am confident that the next generation of engineers will be the source of many new innovations and ideas.”
However, he adds, “It will require great effort and lots of multi-disciplinary research to ensure that solutions, which at first glance may appear good, do not further accelerate the crisis. The solutions that will take us out of the crisis also need to be cost effective, as they will otherwise have a hard time in a market economy. The Energy Efficiency Movement is a good initiative showing how you can build good businesses around efficient use of energy.”

### Improving transport efficiency
Transportation is an essential and integral part of our lives, and the world is seeking ways to reduce emissions and eliminate fossil-fuels. Therefore, we require cleaner, more sustainable and more energy efficient modes of transport.  
Electric trains are one of the most efficient modes of transport available and even when trains are powered by fossil fuels, they are still significantly more efficient than cars and trucks. For this reason, many countries and regions are investing heavily in their rail networks. For example, 2021 is “The European Year of Rail”. This is an EU initiative to promote rail as a sustainable, smart, and safe means of transport. Currently, the EU is calling for massive investments in energy efficiency, and it aims to decarbonize transport, and to promote and support a shift to rail use by both passengers and freight. 
Indeed, around the world, trillions of dollars are being invested over the next decade to improve rail networks in countries including China, India, Russia, and the USA. However, new regulations require the industry to improve its efficiency still further. Given the huge difference in operating needs between an electric car running around 4,500 hours in its lifetime, and an electric train running 6,500 hours a year with performance specifications 20 times higher, this is not a trivial task. 
Read the white paperTransportation is an essential and integral part of our lives, and the world is seeking ways to reduce emissions and eliminate fossil-fuels. Therefore, we require cleaner, more sustainable and more energy efficient modes of transport.Read the white paper 
The question, then, is how can we improve the efficiency of rail transport? There are several technologies available that can make trains more efficient. These include improving the efficiency of the traction chain and enabling hybrid electric-diesel operation, as well as retrofitting and upgrading older rolling stock. 
This white paper discusses the efficiency benefits of rail over other modes of transport, as well as looking at technologies like traction converters and on-board energy storage. 
Meeting sustainability goals requires concerted efforts from stakeholders in all areas of society. Two examples of forward-thinking companies are Rhaetian Railways (RhB) and Verkehrsbetriebe Zürich (VBZ) in Switzerland, which have adopted new technology as a means to increase value for their business, their customers, and wider society.

### Energy Efficiency First: setting the standard for a sustainable future
The realization that energy usage must become more sustainable and efficient is not new. The EU has played a part in promoting energy efficiency for two decades, and it is a vision shared by many parliamentarians. “Over the years, the European Parliament has been setting the agenda,” says Morten Petersen, “and, when I speak to my colleagues from different parliamentary groups, I see that the principle of ‘energy efficiency first’ has a key role to play in realizing our objectives.”  
The devil is in the detail 
‘Energy efficiency first’ is a key principle of the EU, intended to ensure sustainable and affordable energy supplies in the area. Elements of this strategy include the target of a 32.5% reduction in energy consumption, and legislation concerning the energy efficiency of buildings and consumer products, for example. 
Petersen is not complacent about the challenges ahead. “There is attention from the parliament, but we need to keep on pushing and ensure we keep it on the agenda,” he explains. “We need to make sure that energy efficiency is something that we are ambitious about. We are faced with a tsunami of legislation, so it is an exercise in itself to ensure a coherent, systematic approach, guaranteeing that the energy efficiency principle is there. The devil will be in the detail as usual, so we have to be vigilant.” 
“For every day that passes without serious action it is going to get more difficult.” 
Motivation creation 
Certain energy efficiency standards are more advanced than others, Petersen notes. Europe has long had legislation on electric light bulbs, and electric motors, for example. But applying energy efficiency to new areas can cause resistance. “As an example,” he says, “renovating buildings is a very costly exercise, even though you have high rates of return or low payback times. People are unsure what the benefits are. But if we point out that you also stimulate the local economy, create jobs, and so on, and make it easier to finance, then there is more motivation to renovate public and private buildings in an energy-efficient way.” 
Assuming that there are benefits to the energy efficiency first principle, and that the theory is sound, the challenge seems to be, then, how does one apply the principle in practice? “A mix of policy and incentives is needed. People should be encouraged to be an active member of society in relation to energy efficiency, and we have to make it easier for them to make the right choices.”  
The power of business 
Not surprisingly, businesses are also key to transformation. “They play a key role in developing smart solutions,” Petersen agrees, “not only in developing and implementing these technologies and proving their worth in financial terms, but also as a source of inspiration to all of us to improve energy efficiency. There are both idealistic and financial benefits.” 
Furthermore, collaboration between businesses and public authorities can yield immediate benefits. “There was an interesting project in a municipality in Denmark,” he continues, “where dashboard solutions were created for municipal buildings that might say, okay, the energy consumption on the third floor of this school is going through the roof. So, what is happening? A window might be open, or lights left on. And with this solution you incentivize the public authorities by saying they can save a certain amount if they close the window or turn off the light. These are the kinds of incentives and information flows that you have to have in order to make it convenient and easy for people to do the right thing.” 
"We hope our ambition will serve as an inspiration"
Recent initiatives such as the European Green Deal give support to Petersen’s ideas. “The concept of the Green Deal is fascinating, and I am a big fan,” he concurs. “The vision of transforming entire economies is mind-blowing. But if we succeed – and we must succeed, given the urgency of the situation – then Europe will be the first continent to have such a broad and coherent package of legislation, which will have an effect outside the EU’s borders. We talk about the Brussels effect in green sectors, where these crazy Europeans spend years legislating back and forth, but when they finally act, people take note and adopt the same practices. We hope our ambition will serve as an inspiration.”  
A diminishing path to success 
Where there is a will, there is a way, goes the saying. For Morten Petersen himself, the motivation to improve energy efficiency drastically and speedily is simple – combatting the climate crisis. “The climate issue and associated challenges are so serious,” he says, noting a recent IEA report about the path to net-zero energy use.  
“The report said that there is a way to achieve this by 2050, but the path is getting smaller and smaller. For every day that passes without serious action it is going to get more difficult, so I think that was a stern warning to all of us that we really have to get our act together. In doing so we need support from all of public life, from NGOs and academia to businesses, politicians and so on. Everybody has to play their role in this if we are to succeed.” 

### The role of industrial efficiency in fighting the climate emergency
In terms of ubiquitous technology, motors and drives must come near the top of the list. There is hardly any aspect of our daily lives which is untouched by them. “Electric motors and variable speed drives really enable our modern way of life,” explains Wierod, “even if most of us don’t think about them on a daily basis.”
Wierod’s main topic in this podcast is the role that energy-efficient motor and drives can play in the fight for a more sustainable future. Electric motors consume about 45% of global electricity, he points out, meaning that there are huge energy savings to be made. “In 2020 ABB’s installed bases or motors and drives saved over 198 terawatt hours of energy. By 2023, it is estimated that expanding this installation will help our customers save an additional 78 terawatt hours annually.”
One example of a project where significant savings were made was in Queensland, Australia, where a food and beverage manufacturer realised reductions of 14% in their energy consumption thanks to modern synchronous reluctance motor technology.
Industrial energy efficiency has the single greatest capacity for combating the climate emergency
For Wierod, there are two central elements in fighting global heating. The first is using technology to increase efficiency. Although renewable energy sources also have an important role to play, we cannot use them to replace carbon-based energy sources quickly enough. Therefore, improving the efficiency how we use energy is also required. “One of my main goals is to continue to set higher standards and make this technology available worldwide, so that we can really get the savings that we need to be able to create the future that we all want,” he says.
Secondly, cooperation between businesses, industry, decision-makers, and regulators is vital. “We can’t do this alone. We need commitment, collaboration, and action from all stakeholders. We need to be aware of the opportunities.” Wierod states, “I believe industrial energy efficiency, more than any other challenge, has the single greatest capacity for combating the climate emergency.”

### Ultra-low harmonic drives save Australian council’s water facility 30 percent on energy costs
Drawing the significant amount of electricity required to power these pumps disrupts the local grid. Electrical disturbance includes dimming of the lights in nearby buildings any time the pumps start or stop. The council aimed to eliminate these disturbances and upgrade the pump motors to more efficient models, in line with Stage 1 of the NSW Net Zero Plan.
Experts from Remtron, an ABB Channel Partner, worked with the council to identify the root of the issue: the system’s softstarter motor controller was introducing harmonic distortion into the power network. Harmonics lower energy efficiency and can cause issues for other electrical equipment on the network.
The experts recommended installing a variable speed drive to enable the pumps to operate closer to their best efficiency point (BEP). The council selected an ultra-low harmonic drive for the pur-pose. A typical 6 pulse drives produce 30-45 percent Total Harmonic Distortion (THDi), while ULH drives generally emit less than 3 percent. Now, even when the motor’s speed is varied, harmonics reduction ensures the network remains stable.
The council also replaced the motor with a more modern, efficient model. The combined benefits of variable speed operation and a more efficient motor have resulted in overall cost savings of up to 30 percent.
“The results are genuinely impressive. Using energy efficient motors and ultra-low harmonic drives, with the added benefit of Unity Power Factor, has allowed us to capture cost savings in total power consumption,” says Mitch Palmer, Electrical Supervisor for Construction and Mainte-nance at AlburyCity.
Naveen Nadesan of Remtron, an ABB Authorised Value Provider in Australia, and Mitch Palmer from AlburyCity Council in New South Wales, discuss how cooperative efforts to provide greater energy efficiency has resulted in multiple benefits.

### Ultra-low harmonic and regenerative drives for increased efficiency and reliability of processes and systems
The most common continuous disturbances present in many networks are harmonics, and these can have a significant effect not only on power network efficiency, but also on reliability. 
Harmonics are electromagnetic pollution on the power network
Harmonics are electromagnetic pollution on the power network, and they result in current and voltage waveform distortion. This negatively affects power networks and connected equipment. The higher the harmonic content, the higher the losses in the network and the higher the risk of connected equipment malfunction and failure. The effect of harmonics on equipment reliability can have serious implications for any electrical network, but most seriously for critical applications in facilities like hospitals, utilities and data centers.
Read the white paperHarmonics negatively affect power networks and connected equipment. Read the white paper to find out how harmonics can be mitigated and how this can benefit applications that require a low harmonic content.Read the white paper
Because harmonics can have negative effects on businesses and their applications, it’s critical to select equipment based on its power quality performance, and harmonics in particular. This also applies to drives that are installed to substantially increase process efficiency. Some drive technologies can introduce significant harmonic content to the network, resulting in poor network efficiency and reliability. To overcome harmonics, additional filtering is required, which can have its own negative effect on the network, like increased losses and poor performance at partial loads.
Arnold Taddeo, Global Head of Product Management for Drive Products at ABB, explains how the latest ultra-low harmonic drives ensure reliable operations and increase energy efficiency.
Another solution is to apply drives that simply do not generate harmonics in the first place. ABB’s ultra-low harmonic (ULH) drives are based on active front end technology with DC bus capacitors, and they produce a harmonic content that is less than 3%. In systems that require minimal harmonic content, this can lead to improved overall efficiency and contribute to process reliability.
In addition, ULH drives are available in variants that have regenerative capability. This allows energy to be recovered from system mechanics, for example, during application braking, instead of wasting it as heat through braking resistors or mechanical brakes. Because the energy is recovered and can be reused, this reduces energy consumption and costs, and improves the overall energy efficiency of the application.
This white paper discusses electrical harmonics, their sources and ULH drives / ULH drives with regenerative capability for increased process and system efficiency without compromising on reliability.

### On the right track with Energy Storage Systems
Globally, transport accounts for approximately one-fifth of carbon dioxide emissions. It is well-known that public transport is more environmentally friendly than private vehicles, but even trains and buses have opportunities for improved energy efficiency. For example, even if electric power is available for train operation, infrastructure issues might mean that diesel power is still used. Or, in the case of buses using diesel motors, traffic jams result in decreased efficiency and increased pollution.
“With ESS you can run without diesel to reduce emissions and fossil fuel consumption.”
“In some crowded areas around cities they have installed overhead power lines up to 10 or 20 kilometers outside the city,” explains Beat Guggisberg, Head of Product Line Energy Storage Systems at ABB. “This means that either you have to use two different train types and the passengers have to change trains outside the city, or, more usually, the operator simply uses a diesel-powered train and runs it into the city! In this case, the overhead power lines in the city are useless. There are large possibilities to reduce emissions and fossil fuel consumption.”
One way to reduce these emissions is by using batteries. BORDLINE® ESS is a Lithium-ion based onboard energy storage system designed for use in road and railway vehicles. Although similar batteries have become more common in private cars, and devices such as laptops and mobile phones, the requirements for railway vehicles, for example, is quite different. For example, an electric train runs more hours in a year than an electric car does in its entire life.

“If we look at an electric car battery with a lifetime of approximately eight years, it will probably run for around 4,500 hours in total,” says Guggisberg. “Compare that to a train operating eighteen hours a day, or 6,500 hours a year, where you have performance requirements twenty times higher. That’s the main difference between these types of lithium ion batteries compared to standard electric cars.”
Reusing energy to reduce fuel consumption by up to 25%
The technology used in the BORDLINE® system is designed for high-performance applications. “Adding the system to a diesel engine in a train can reduce fuel consumption by twenty or twenty-five per cent because you can reuse the braking energy and you can operate the engine in an optimal area with much less emissions,” explains Guggisberg. “All the electrical systems in a train can use electrical regenerative braking very efficiently. Since you have extremely low rolling resistance you can recover a lot of the energy retained by the mass of the train. With energy storage, it's even better because you can store it locally.”
Increasing performance and overall efficiency
On the other hand, the situation with public buses is a little bit different. “Trains have their own tracks, so they don’t get stuck in traffic,” he continues. “Getting stuck is very inefficient and makes it difficult to dimension the battery size and so you need also a smart charging system to really optimize the battery weight and reduce the overall environmental impact. If you are a bus operator you can lower fuel consumption and maintenance needs with ESS. Electric powered systems have much lower operating costs than diesel, perhaps around thirty or forty per cent less.”
Decreasing fossil fuel consumption is not only a question of which engine to use, however. It is one piece of a puzzle that involves infrastructure planning and the digitalization of transport networks. “The efficient use of energy is a very important topic for all applications, and BORDLINE® ESS can help to improve it, not only for road and rail traffic but also marine traffic and stationary applications like cable cars,” Guggisberg says. “Digitalization helps the operation of these systems. Traffic is a huge contributor to energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, and with our ABB products we can support the efficient use of energy.” In addition to railways and buses, BORDLINE® ESS is also designed for use in trolleybuses, off-road vehicles, eTrucks, and maintenance vehicles.
Concerning future opportunities, Guggisberg points out that although one hundred per cent efficiency is impossible due to physics, advances in technology will increase performance and overall efficiency. “The big topic of battery energy storage is still the energy density. Because the energy density of batteries is lower than that of fossil fuels, the overall efficiency of a drive system is of even higher importance, otherwise the required operating range will not be reached,” he remarks. If electric batteries can be reduced to a fraction of their current size, it will have a huge effect in terms of efficiency and capacity.
“I want to make sure that my grandchildren will have a good world to live in fifty years from now.”
Advancing the causes of sustainability and energy efficiency is something that we can all get behind. For Guggisberg, his work has a deeper impact. “For me personally, the reduction of environmental impact is very important,” he concludes. “I want to make sure that my grandchildren will have a good world to live in fifty years from now.”

### Energy efficiency – can cities inspire change?
World Environment Day is celebrated each year on June 5 to encourage and raise global awareness of environmental protection. This year, the theme for World Environment Day is ‘Ecosystem Restoration’, and it centers on resetting our relationship with nature, something which requires greater conviction and a more cohesive effort. The world is not just home to you and me. There is an intricate ecosystem where species depend on each other to survive and thrive.
Having called Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, home for the last five years, it is easy to imagine that climate change, carbon emissions, and the degradation of our ecosystem is a problem for scientists and conservationists elsewhere. In tropical Malaysia, there is lush greenery and blues skies in most places. For the more adventurous nature enthusiasts, Malaysia boasts the Belum Temengor Rainforest, one of the world’s oldest rainforests, estimated to be more than 130 million years old; the Mulu National Park which has the largest cave passage in the world; and the Sipadan island which regularly appears on lists of top three dive spots. It would be unimaginable if future generations are only able to marvel at these natural wonders through books or the internet due to our actions or inactions.
Cities as a starting point
According to the United Nations, cities make up just 3% of earth’s land area but generate about 80% of the world’s GDP. The importance of cities will continue to increase as two-thirds of the world’s population are projected to be living in urban hubs by 2050, with the largest expansion expected in developing countries. As the epicenter for human activity, cities account for 60% to 80% of energy consumption and at least 70% of carbon emissions.
Against this pressing landscape, we are reaching a tipping point to restore the natural harmony between cities and the environment. This needs to happen at a speed and scale which will avert a greater crisis. Human activities have altered almost 75 percent of the earth’s surface. It is time to restore our relationship with nature and the ecosystem which we all depend on.
Energy efficiency in buildings
How cities evolve moving forward will be crucial to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Paris Agreement. The potential to make tangible progress towards a sustainable future begins with energy efficiency – in our homes and the places we work and play, in how we commute, and in the water networks that we rely on. The value of energy efficiency is underscored by its ability to meet our energy needs without having to expand energy supply. It means deploying solutions and prioritizing actions at the final point of consumption i.e., in buildings, tools, products and machinery, without adding further strain on energy infrastructure.
Buildings account for more than one-third of the energy and half of the electricity used globally. They are also responsible for approximately one-third of global CO2 emissions. According to the International Energy Agency, direct and indirect emissions from electricity and commercial heat used in buildings rose to 10 GtCO2 in 2019, the highest level ever recorded, after flattening between 2013 to 2016. By adopting proven heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system (HVAC) technologies, we can take the first steps towards driving a low-carbon future for cities.
Such new technologies open opportunities for smart buildings operations. Energy requirements of a building can be automatically adjusted to adapt to the actual needs. For example, air flow in offices would slow down in the early mornings or late evenings and during weekends, when the occupancy level is low.
Flow control is also relevant. In older buildings, valves, throttles, and dampers are used to regulate the flow of air or liquids.  This means that the motors in fans and pumps applications are running at full speed all the time and wasting a lot of energy. A better and more efficient option is to use variable speed drives to control these motors. With a variable speed drive, the motors can run at exactly the speed that is needed for each application and according to the actual load of the building. Also, it might be useful to investigate the actual efficiency of a motor and if it is older than IE3, consider upgrading it to IE5. The solutions are available. All that is needed is a will to fast-track their adoption so that cities can move towards a more sustainable future.

### Energy Efficiency: the unsung hero on the route to decarbonisation
Originally published in the Financial Times on June 1st, 2021
Throughout history, humans have sought to overcome the challenge of converting energy into motion via the most efficient means possible. Beginning with the use of wind and water mills in the earliest civilisations, to the invention of the steam engine in 1772, and the adoption of the electric motor in the 1910s, each successive invention was more efficient than the last and has accelerated our development as a species.
Today, this need for energy efficiency is more pressing than ever as the world looks to decarbonise industries and infrastructure. The good news is that the technology needed to significantly reduce energy consumption is already available today.
In an attempt to meet the Paris Agreement’s target of limiting global warming to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels, the EU has pledged to reach carbon neutrality by 2050 and has set two critical interim targets to achieve by 2030. Firstly, the bloc has targeted reducing its greenhouse gas emissions by  55%, while the second target will look to improve energy efficiency by at least 32.5%. This year’s EU Green Week addressed the need to deliver sustainable industrial systems and promote cleaner technologies.
However, the EU recently acknowledged a technology that will play a key role in reaching its energy efficiency targets. It’s one that we rarely consider, but nonetheless has an undeniable presence in our daily lives: electric motors.
Electric motors are everywhere. They run the compressors that keep our food cold, power the pumps that supply us fresh water and drive the HVAC systems that keep us warm (or cool). Yet the issue is that too many of these motor-driven systems are inefficient and waste too much energy. There are around 8 billion electric motors in all applications across the EU which, according to its own estimates, account for almost half of the EU’s energy consumption.
In light of this, the importance of energy efficiency has been brought to the attention of governments and industry bodies targeting net zero emissions for the global economy. In May, the International Energy Agency (IEA) published a landmark report pointing out that increased energy efficiency will allow the world economy to grow by 40% by 2030 all while using 7% less energy than today. The IEA’s message to industry is to adopt near-zero emissions technologies such as motors, while advising the need for mandates to reduce their overall energy consumption by 2030. 
One such mandate, the EU’s new Ecodesign Regulation (EU) 2019/1781, will come into full effect on 1 July 2021 for low-voltage induction motors and variable speed drives. The new industry benchmark will require a wide range of electric motors to meet the IE3 premium efficiency standard.
But what does this regulation mean in practice? By implementing the use of higher-efficiency motors, and the drives that control their speed and torque to save even more energy, the EU aims to save 110 terawatt-hours by 2030. That’s equal to the entire annual electricity consumption of the Netherlands.
However, 1 July is only the first step in a two-year process of transition to even greater efficiency. The Ecodesign regulation expands in July 2023, raising the base level for certain motors to IE4 super-premium efficiency.  The leading role the EU is taking on this issue is an ambitious one which sets the precedent for all countries looking to cut carbon emissions.
Fortunately, the technology needed to help achieve these goals already exists, and even surpasses the regulatory demands required now and two years from now, with IE5 ultra-premium efficiency motor and drive packages already on the market. It begs the question: why stop at IE3 if industry can go the extra mile? We should be taking advantage of today’s available technology to get a step ahead of the regulations and reduce energy consumption as fast as possible in the process.
Investing in the latest technology can have a massive impact. ABB’s recent energy efficiency study highlights that if the more than 300 million industrial motor-driven systems currently in operation were replaced with optimized, high-efficiency equipment, global electricity consumption could be reduced by up to 10 percent. That’s roughly 91 percent of the annual consumption of the entire EU.
Just as wind, water, steam and electricity allowed us to travel faster, build higher and fly further, this new generation of energy efficient motors and drives could become the unsung heroes in the next stage of humanity’s journey. What’s more, these solutions will allow us to keep the world turning without needing to sacrifice our most valuable asset: the planet itself. Given the necessary technology to achieve this is already waiting in the wings, the question is not whether, but when the world will take the next step in accelerating the transition to a more sustainable future.

### Energy-efficient HVAC system uses 30 percent less power at Shanghai Library
The huge building must remain comfortable in Shanghai’s variable climate, which regularly exceeds 30°C (86°F) in the summer and drops to freezing in the winter. The key to maintaining a comfortable temperature is the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system – but these systems typically consume around 50 percent of all energy used in buildings.  
To meet the government’s Action Plan Towards Carbon Neutrality, the library must use the most energy-efficient HVAC system possible.  
Shanghai Songneng Mechanical and Electrical Equipment Engineering Company was brought in to work on the HVAC system. Experts from the company recommended variable speed drives (VSDs) to greatly reduce the building’s energy use. VSDs can cut a motor’s energy use by as much as 60 percent if it is running at partial load, which is common for motors in the HVAC system.  
The library was equipped with 129 VSDs throughout the HVAC system. This means that the pumps, fans and compressors will run at exactly the required speed, saving power. The drives further save power by reducing electromagnetic interference. The use of VSDs is estimated to cut power use by 30 percent, saving the library over 635 megawatt-hours (MWh) every year.  
Energy saving will be combined with other sustainability measures to make the library as sustainable as possible. It uses energy management software to optimize energy use, generates power using solar panels, and operates a heat recovery system.  
“ABB’s ACH580 is dedicated specifically to the needs of HVAC applications. This drive was chosen to ensure the right environmental conditions for the East Branch, while saving tremendous amounts of energy per year. It stood out due to its proven product characteristics such as stable operation, precise control, and advanced safety features,” explains Yongjian Wang, General Manager of Shanghai Songneng Mechanical and Electrical Equipment Engineering Company. 

### How can we save energy in buildings?
Moving to the city
Urbanization is one of the megatrends of our time and by 2050 it is predicted that 68% of the world’s population will live in cities. As a result, many cities around the world are building rapidly to accommodate their new inhabitants. This means that right now is a good time to reconsider how we design and operate buildings, and to choose more energy efficient designs and technologies for the future. Governments around the world are already legislating to direct things in a more sustainable direction and, for example, the European Union hopes to reduce the energy consumption of new buildings to close to zero.
So, what methods are available for reducing the energy consumption of buildings?
Buildings are responsible for over 30% of global energy consumption.
Read the white paperBuildings are responsible for around 30% of global energy usage. Read the white paper and discover how smart technology can greatly increase energy efficiency.Read the white paper
Smarter building management
In addition to basic elements which can reduce the running costs of a building, such as good thermal insulation, modern buildings can benefit from building management systems. With these systems, the energy requirements of the building are automatically adjusted to adapt to the actual needs. For example, a building management system can turn off lights when no one is using a room. It can automatically reduce the air flow and heating in offices at the weekends, and even during lunch breaks. Or, in hot countries, it can automatically close the blinds when the windows are in the direct sun. By adapting to the actual needs, less energy is used. Considering that over 50% of a commercial building’s operating costs can come from running the HVACR systems, it makes good financial sense to make building systems smarter.
In a commercial building, over 50% of the operating costs can come from HVACR.
Frank Grundholm, VP of Global HVACR sales at ABB Motion, explains how adopting a new mindset and new technology can reduce energy usage dramatically, creating benefits for both the environment and the building’s users.
More efficient equipment control
Another way to reduce operating costs is to run the equipment in building systems more efficiently. For example, in older buildings, applications like HVAC fans and water pumps tend to have single speed motors that use valves, throttles and dampers to control flow. This means that the motors are running at full capacity all the time and doing unnecessary work. A better and more efficient option is control these motors with variable speed drives. With a drive, the motors can run at exactly the speed that is needed for each application and according to the actual load of the building, and they can operate faster or slower, as required. Again, this technology reduces energy consumption and cost by adapting to the actual energy needs of the motor and the building.
Variable speed drives can typically reduce energy consumption by 25%.
Whole system thinking
Once we start to look at the different ways energy is used and needed in buildings, we can quickly find individual areas that could be improved. However, it’s always important to look at the bigger picture and to consider how the power systems in the building are interrelated. When we view the system as a whole, it’s possible to find greater efficiency savings.
For example, using both building management systems and variable speed drives to control the HVAC would reduce energy consumption. But what about the fan motors? They are part of the system too and their efficiency should also be taken into account. If they are older IE3 motors, upgrading to more efficient IE5 motors would save yet more energy.
An IE5 synchronous reluctance motor can reduce losses by up to 40% compared to an IE3 induction motor.
Another example can be found in elevator systems. While the motors may already be highly efficient, adding regenerative braking would enable the building to recover electricity every time an elevator descended and stopped. Again this lowers overall energy use.
Even the quality of the power supply in a building matters. If there is a high level of harmonics in the building power supply, it can damage equipment and reduce efficiency. Technology like ABB’s ultra-low harmonic drives can protect motors from harmonic disturbance and improve overall system efficiency.
The digital future
In addition to urbanization, digitalization is another megatrend. Digital services will increasingly connect devices, equipment and buildings. These new services will make it possible to find new ways to optimize and improve building efficiency. For example, building management systems will not only be connected to information in the building, but also to information from the outside world. This will enable things like predictive management of heating and cooling needs according to the weather forecast, smart management of EV charging stations in the car park based on traffic data, and identifying opportunities for efficiency improvements throughout your property assets.
For building owners, the majority of a building’s costs come from operating it. And although investing in energy efficient technology does cost money, the energy and cost saved can pay back within a year or two. It’s not just environmentally friendly to make buildings more energy efficient, it’s better for your bottom line, too.

### Energy efficiency in industry and the role of technology
Two of the main topics they discuss are power generation and power consumption. Ever since the invention of the steam engine, developing ways to generate more power from the same amount fuel has been crucial to driving technology forward. And, equally, finding ways to do more with less energy has also been important. However, to improve our energy efficiency in the future, Professor Ahola emphasizes that we need to view energy systems as a whole because energy losses always accumulate throughout the whole system.
https://youtu.be/fsPDIpJgG_I
From about 1750, when the industrial revolution got underway, until the modern day, we have managed to improve the efficiency of power generation from 1% with coal-fired steam engines to 60% with gas turbines. There have been similar efficiency improvements on the power consumption and use side, for example with the transition from incandescent bulbs to LED lights, and now the change from internal combustion vehicles to electric vehicles. As Professor Ahola points out, the world is moving towards electricity-based systems. As a result, digitalization will also be playing an increasingly important role. As Professor Ahola says, “the first step in energy efficient actions is measurement. You have to know where you are in order to do something.” This means that new, real-time measurement systems and analyses will be needed to minimize and optimize our energy use.
The first step in energy efficient actions is measurement. You have to know where you are in order to do something.
In addition, there is a lot of research on ways to improve energy efficiency, as well as ways to reduce emissions. In his own research, Professor Ahola has worked on ways to extract CO2 from the air and turn it into valuable products, some of which could be used in new types of batteries.

### Energy efficiency is a pressing matter
For AP&T, using the synchronous reluctance (SynRM) motor from ABB is a key component that improves the efficiency and sustainability of their servo hydraulic presses. Mikael Karlsson points out that they are two different things – Both important drivers for their customers. “When we look at energy efficiency, it is still firstly an economical factor for our customers. But looking at the environmental side, it is something that is becoming more and more important to them as well.”
Karlsson has been a part of the development process of their servo hydraulic presses from the very beginning. Before his current role as the product manager, he was the R&D manager responsible for the development project. He recollects that working together with ABB has always been more of a close partnership than a simple customer-supplier relationship. “ABB presented their new SynRM motors as an alternative to the product we were initially discussing with them,” he explains. The SynRM motor ticked all of AP&Ts boxes. It delivered great performance paired with improved environmental factors such as not using any rare earth metals like cobalt or neodymium.
Thanks to their smart design including the use of SynRM motors, AP&Ts servo hydraulic presses, which are being used to press sheet metal as well as other materials such as wood-based fibre composites, have been reported to deliver considerable savings in terms of energy consumption. “In some industrial applications we have reported reductions in energy consumption of up to 70%. That is a considerable number,” Karlsson points out. “The SynRM motors we source from ABB do play an important role. In some of our bigger machines we may have up to 16 of these motors installed.”
Sustainability and energy efficiency are listed as high priorities within AP&T. Mikael Karlsson explains how the company views these things. “We we were quite early to recognize and understand that in order to be competitive, we need to be energy efficient and work on the sustainability of our products. Our strategy is to have a sustainable product lifecycle, which also includes total cost of ownership.” He feels that there are three key factors surrounding energy efficient motors: performance, cost efficiency and sustainability. “With the servo hydraulic presses utilizing SynRM motors, we believe we have a product that has all the important factors covered.”
When asked about the drivers behind the growing demand for more energy efficient industrial machinery, Mikael Karlsson is quick to mention ever-tightening regulations and standards. “We tend to see these shifts in both attitude and legislation take place here in Northern Europe first. But with two thirds of our business outside of Europe, in both directions – East and West – we are happy to see a similar shift starting to take place very quickly.”
When asked about the future goals of AP&T, Mikael Karlsson says, “We have made huge leaps in energy saving, as I said 70% in some processes, but until we are at 100% energy efficiency, there’s always something to do. We want all energy to go into the forming process, not end up as wasted energy.” He also felt that with the benefits it provides in terms of efficiency and sustainability, the technology that is being used in the company’s servo hydraulic presses should eventually become the technology of choice for the company’s entire press portfolio. Karlsson sums up the topic with an important reminder. “It is important for the discussion around energy efficiency to continue and to also spread across the entire value chain. It is not just about meeting targets and regulations. It is not just the interest of the end customer, either. This is a topic that should be important to all of us.”

### German sewage plant cuts energy use by 40 percent, starts supplying power back to the grid  
In 2020, the facility needed to replace the motors for the back sludge pumping station II and the flocculation filtration system. The funding was provided by the Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety. To meet the requirements of the National Climate Protection Initiative, the upgrades would have to prioritize the efficiency of the wastewater treatment plant, as well as the reduction of CO2 emissions.  
Before this investment, sludge pumping station II used six motors to power its pumps. The operator adjusted the impeller geometry and replaced these motors with four highly efficient SynRM models, resulting in significant energy savings.  
The operator also paired the new motors with ACS880-31 ultra-low harmonic variable speed drives (VSDs). These drives enable the pumps to dynamically adjust to varying hydraulic loads and reduce the risk of disturbances on the power network, further improving the water treatment plant’s efficiency.  
“The sewage treatment plant has its own power grid. Our ultra-low harmonic drives ensure that it is free of harmonics, so as not to impair the sensitive measurement technology," explains Markus Flierdl, Sales Engineer Region North-West at ABB Motion Germany. “Due to reduced harmonics, there is also less heat generation. This protects all electrical components in the system and extends their service life.” 
Three more motor-drive packages were used for the flocculation filtration system, delivering the same efficiency and control benefits. Collectively, these upgrades have reduced the plant’s power consumption by 40 percent.  
The sewage treatment plant uses biomass, photovoltaics and wind energy to generate around 6.3 million kilowatt hours of renewable electricity per year on-site. Following these efficiency improvements, the plant now consumes less power than it generates. As a result, the project to improve energy efficiency in the water and wastewater facility has also resulted in a supply of additional renewable electricity to the local power grid. 
Andreas Wehren has been Operations Manager for the past ten years and is dedicated to improving the efficiency of the sewage treatment plant. “Because of climate change, we want to become more and more energy efficient. When I took over the sewage treatment plant as manager, we still needed almost five million kilowatt hours to operate. Now we need an average of around three million, partly because we have invested a lot in energy-efficient technology,” he explains.
Clean water.Clean process.Andreas Wehren and Christian Schaffeldt from the Bocholt wastewater treatment plant discuss how ABB IE5 SynRM motors are helping clean 108,000 cubic meters of wastewater every day, in the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly way.

The motors behind your everyday life
Whether we like it or not, almost everything we use in everyday life comes from some sort of factory. From food and water to clothes, everything is manufactured or processed. And wherever things are produced, there is a production line running continuously, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. And every single production line in the world needs motors to keep it in motion and fans to cool it. This also applies to the water industry. Wherever you have a water supply, there are electric motors driving the pumps. Any industry you can think of needs motors. As a result, there are an estimated 300 million industrial electric motor-driven systems in the world.
If we could improve the efficiency of each of these motors by only a few percent, it would save a huge amount of energy. Synchronous reluctance motors offer the kind of big savings we’re looking for but it took many years of development to get this far. Let’s take a look at 5 things about synchronous reluctance motors.
Read the white paperSynchronous reluctance motors (SynRM) are quickly becoming the technology of choice for achieving IE5 efficiency. Read the white paper to find out how magnet-free motors and variable speed drives are making a difference.Read the white paper
1. The reluctance motor is an old conceptThe reluctance motor was invented in 1838 and the first type was a switched reluctance motor, which used mechanical switches to control the motor speed. This switched mechanism meant that the motors could only rotate as fast as the switches could be operated. Back in the 1800s, when steam engines were still in vogue, this was a very slow speed. Over time the switching methods improved, however the motors still had drawbacks, including inconsistent rotation speed due to torque ripple.
What is reluctance?Just like electricity flows through wires, magnetism can flow through metal. The more difficult it is for the magnetism to flow, the weaker the magnetism. When it is difficult for magnetism to flow we call it “reluctance”.
2. The first synchronous reluctance motor was invented in 1923In theory, synchronous reluctance motors promised much more consistent rotation speeds than switched motors because their rotation was synchronous with the frequency of the supply current. However, the technology for accurate control didn’t exist at the time so the motors couldn’t be operated effectively. It took almost 90 more years for the right control technology to become available.
3. Synchronous reluctance motors rely on variable speed drives to workVariable speed drives use sophisticated solid-state power electronics and software to control the frequency of the motor supply current very precisely, switching it thousands of times per second. This gives variable speed drives the ability to drive synchronous reluctance motors very efficiently, maintaining exactly the right speed and power of rotation.
How does controlling a motor with a variable speed drive save energy?Many machines in industry, like conveyor belts, use electric motors that run at a single speed. When you want to change the speed of the machine you use good old-fashioned gears to change it, just like the gears in your car. However, this means that the motor is driving the gears, too, and often running at an unnecessarily high speed. All this wastes energy.
However, when you can control the speed of the motor directly, you don’t need gears. When you want your machine to run slower, you simply run your motor slower. This is what variable speed drives do – they control the speed of the motor directly. No gears are needed and no unnecessary energy is used.
4. ABB introduced the first modern synchronous reluctance technology to the marketIn 2004, engineers at ABB realised that their variable speed drive technology had the potential to run synchronous reluctance motors successfully. In 2011, after years of research, testing and development, ABB finally unveiled their new SynRM motor-drive packages at the Hannover Fair, in Germany. These new motors were designed from the beginning to be used as a package together with variable speed drives. This ensures optimum efficiency, accurate motor control, excellent reliability and a long product life-time. Believe it or not, product life-time matters. In some industries, where production is non-stop, they have to replace their motors every three to four months.
5. IE5 motors are the most energy efficient type of motors availableABB now offers SynRM motor-drive packages with the IE5 ultra-premium energy efficiency class for the motor. This means that ABB offers the best available technology for motor efficiency. To give you an idea of the difference this could make to global energy use, most industrial motors currently have an IE3 efficiency class. ABB’s IE5 SynRM motors offer up to 40% lower energy losses compared to IE3 motors, as well as significantly lower energy consumption and CO₂ emissions.
ABB’s Ulf Hellstrom, Robert Chin and Stellan Rosenquist discuss the development, benefits and market outlook of the SynRM motor, and the role of energy efficiency in the industry transformation towards sustainability. Led by Åsa Granli, ABB.
Save money and save the planet
In business terms, SynRM technology can save a lot of electricity and therefore money per year. In environmental terms, it can also lead to a significant reduction in CO2 emissions.
The technology to make a difference is here, now. We just have to decide to use it. Join the Energy Efficiency Movement and let’s make the world more energy efficient.

### The measure of a man is what he does with power — Plato (428/427–348/347 B.C.E.)
We humans have only been on this planet that we call Earth for a relatively short period of time – only a couple hundred thousand years out of the 4.5 billion years the Earth has existed. Still, during that relatively short period we have evolved to become the dominant species on the planet, largely because of our well-developed brain, which enables advanced abstract reasoning, language, problem solving, sociality, and culture through social learning.
We are rightly proud of what we have been able to achieve, innovate and create during this time. Starting from the simplest of tools, to machines, factories, and complex systems such as an electricity grid or the Internet. But, if we look at the sophistication of our inventions and creations, they are still relatively elementary in comparison to the workings of the natural world.
Our choices, actions and decisions affect the future of the whole planet, and with that comes an enormous responsibility.
I am a junkie for nature documentaries and take great inspiration from one of my all-time heroes, Sir David Attenborough. Watching and listening to him explaining the many wonders of the world instantly puts the accomplishments of the human race into context and clearly shows us that we are just inhabitants here on Earth. The big picture is still beyond our comprehension. We still can’t create anything living without relying on the re-creation process given to us by nature.
Yet, despite this, we have become full of ourselves. We seem to think that because we have become the dominant species, we are omnipotent and entitled to take and to do whatever we want. That we don’t need the Earth, but somehow vice versa. There is a really good video narrated by Julia Roberts that nails down this thought exceptionally well.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmVLcj-XKnM
Being dominant means that our choices, actions and decisions affect the future of the whole planet, and with that comes an enormous responsibility – a responsibility that we have neglected in many ways, and in many cases because we didn’t understand the consequences of our actions. Now, when it comes to climate change and the mass extinction of species, we can no longer claim that we don’t know or understand. We have the facts. The question is, are we ready to make the smart choices and act responsibly? How do we use the power we have?
Beautiful –  balanced – harmonious – regenerative – renewable – circular – efficient – adaptive – evolving. These are just some of the words that come to mind when I think about the Earth and nature. Intuitively, I believe that the application of those same principles to our life and man-made processes might just be the start we need. Instead of trying to live off the land, let’s live with the land. That to me is also the essence of sustainability - a choice between two options:
Do you live your life or run your business to maximize your own benefit in the short-term, and at the expense of the planet and others inhabiting it?
Do you live your life and run your business in a way that benefits everyone in the long-term and allows others to live and thrive?
As said, I believe the reason that we have become the dominant species on this planet is because we are able to communicate on a relatively sophisticated and conceptual level. We are able to explain complex topics and act on the information. What that enables is collaboration. We are able to - if we so choose - to collaborate and even create cultures of collaboration. Individual choices matter, but the real magic happens when our choices, as individuals, cities, countries, businesses and organizations are aligned. That’s when we are able to change things, in a relatively short period of time, and have a lasting impact.
To preserve the planet, we need all stakeholders to work together, to use all the creativity and determination in us. Use the existing solutions available and to continue to innovate for more. We need to invest in areas that help mitigate climate change and we need governments to guide our actions by regulation and incentives.
This is exactly what the Energy Efficiency Movement is all about. Bringing together all stakeholders to innovate and act for a more energy efficient, regenerative, adaptive world. Together, we can make a real difference if that’s how we decide to use our power.
By Sebastian Linko,ABB Motion,Group Vice President,Head of Communications.

### Making the right moves toward energy efficiency
Driving change through regulations
The progress and evolution of adopting IEC standards as national standards also outside of Europe has been the result of intensive and effective collaboration between all stakeholders participating in different IEC technical committees and working groups. The next steps that would be extremely beneficial for industry, end users and manufacturers would be the harmonization of directives, regulations and different kinds of registration schemes in countries and perhaps in regions, as is the case in Europe for example. But it is worth noting that this is even more complex that the harmonization of standards. And all this will not happen overnight.
The developments in energy efficiency in low voltage motors are usually generated through directives, regulations and standards, depending on national legislation. Directives and regulations are national, country-specific or regional, as is the case within the EU for example. Since they are created by governing bodies there is no true alignment and standardization when it comes to marking, registration and validation of products. This makes life more complicated, not only for motor manufacturers, but all equipment manufacturers delivering their incorporated motor products or spare parts around the world. There are however certain requirements that are becoming globally common and accepted as a minimum requirement. Jukka sees this as a positive development. “In most markets with regulations regarding the minimum efficiency requirement the IE3 or equivalent energy efficiency class is becoming the accepted norm. But as requirements continue to become stricter every year, we are already seeing IE4 class electric motors become more common. In the EU for example, the IE4 class will be mandatory in the 75-200kW range from mid-2023 onwards.”
"It is extremely important to set legislation that truly has a positive impact on sustainability and efficiency."
Setting the right efficiency targets
Jukka Hannuksela has seen the rapid development in sustainability regulations driven by the need for reducing CO2 emissions by improving the performance and energy efficiency of entire processes. He recognizes the urgency of the situation in terms of the environmental impact industry is having on the world around us, but at the same time urges governing bodies to take their time in preparing, defining and passing new regulations. “It is extremely important to set legislation that truly has a positive impact on sustainability and efficiency. This sense of urgency runs the risk of resulting in technical requirements and targets that are increasingly difficult to comply with, that don’t deliver equally tangible benefits.”
Already it can be seen that it is becoming increasingly difficult for smaller electric motor manufacturers to stay on top of all the regulations in place around the world. It takes considerable muscles and a global network to both follow and meet the coming changes in all local regulations. And efficiency will not only mean energy efficiency and performance. More and more we see it relating to the increasingly efficient use of materials, for example when designing motors for higher performance, considering material recycling at the end of product life, or planning the re-use and repurposing of products. Today, such definitions as circular economy or circularity can be widely seen in many circumstances when talking about efficiency.
The key to environmental performance
Jukka has also seen the drastic changes taking place in the environment over the past 30-40 years. “As a typical Finn who loves to spend time in nature, I share concerns over global warming. At the same time, we must recognize that energy demand is increasing all the time. Especially those of us inhabiting the cold and inhospitable North are dependent on energy to heat our homes and electricity as a part of our lives.” So, if energy is something we can’t live without, but excessive consumption is becoming harmful to our environment, the only logical solution is to seek out more efficient ways to use it. This is exactly what modern electric motors are designed to do.
Developments in engineering and technology
When seeking to improve the operating efficiency of typical low voltage motors, which are still today mostly induction motors, we generally mean increasing a motor’s size and mass by increasing active material use in components, namely the rotor and stator. This enables us to reduce power losses in the stator and rotor of a motor, leading them to run cooler. Improving efficiency allows motors to run at cooler temperatures, helping them last longer, requiring less service and maintenance.
The key challenge for the future according to Jukka Hannuksela is finding ways to increase operating efficiency and the performance of whole systems, including not just a motor but all the other components in the operating chain without continuously increasing the physical size of motors. This will lower the threshold and allow for the replacement of old motors with newer, more efficient ones without the need to rebuild motor foundations and surrounding structures. “This is something motor manufacturers like ABB are working towards in the case of induction motors, but also by exploring and developing new technologies such as synchronous reluctance motors (SynRM),” Jukka Hannuksela explains. He also reminds us, “not forgetting circularity and sustainability”.
"Energy efficiency is the key to tackling climate change and ensuring sustainable development."
Whatever the future holds, energy efficiency is the key to tackling climate change and ensuring sustainable development. The universal truth is that we can’t live without energy. The demand for industrially produced goods and commodities is not going away. Neither is the demand for electrically powered devices. It is the shared responsibility of governments, industries and societies to find ways to improve the efficiency together.

### Energy is the key to the future
Unlimited clean energy for the future
Professor Thornhill is a self-admitted fan of both science and science fiction. “I was brought up on science fiction. The great thing about science fiction is that it has shown us that energy is absolutely crucial for the future of mankind. With unlimited energy we could pretty much solve all of the world’s problems, support a growing population and pretty much do whatever we want, provided that the energy we use doesn’t pollute the planet… whatever planet it may be.” While those visions of the future are not yet a reality, major steps in the right direction have been taken. The developments in renewable energy provide hope for the future. Also, with private investments pouring in to drive the development of nuclear fusion, there may be a new clean and plentiful nuclear source of energy available in the not-so-distant future.
Fictional visions of the future are not yet reality, but major steps in the right direction have been taken.
Storage and distribution challenges
“But even if we discover a source of unlimited energy, that energy has to be deployable. This means overcoming the challenges in storage, recovery and distribution,” Professor Thornhill reminds us. For electric energy especially, finding solutions for buffering and storage is already a quest for today. The answer will most likely lie in the development of large-scale batteries and solving the challenges of distributed storage, utilizing the grid itself. “To some degree this is already becoming a reality, for example when it comes to charging stations for electric vehicles. Cost-effective charging takes place during hours of lower electricity demand, and it is already also possible put some energy back into the grid during peak hours.”
Green energy is not just green electricity
Professor Thornhill also reminds us that when we talk about energy, we are not just talking about electricity. Sustainability should be a focus when discussing today’s fuel and gas sources. Luckily, many advances have already been made when it comes to finding alternatives for fossil fuels. Professor Thornhill is optimistic about things such as heat pumps, and carbon-neutral blue and green hydrogen. “The ability to make green hydrogen out of clean water through electrolysis has exciting implications for the future.” She looks forward to the day that all of the UK has been able to change out their traditional gas boilers for more efficient and sustainable solutions thanks to scientific and technological development and new innovations.
Energy efficiency is today’s solution
But since we do not have an unlimited source of clean energy at our disposal yet, the challenge we face today is to find ways to improve the efficiency of how we consume what we have. While all of us can do our part in improving energy efficiency in our everyday lives, the real difference can be made in industry. Professor Thornhill believes that the real game-changer in energy efficiency is variable speed drives technology. Smooth adjustability in motor speeds has the potential to deliver massive improvements in energy efficiency with variable speed drives. Leading technology providers such as ABB are bringing out features and functionalities that help reduce energy consumption. Professor Thornhill mentions features such as ride-through functionalities that allow processes to drive through disturbances, as the type of innovations that help improve energy efficiency and environmental performance. “By maintaining a process and avoiding an unscheduled shutdown by using stored rotational energy as auxiliary energy in a gas pumping application for example, we can minimize emissions from a standstill and avoid having to rely on flaring to release pipeline pressure.”
The real game-changer in energy efficiency is variable speed drives technology.
Industry needs innovators
Nina Thornhill, Professor of Process Automation at Imperial College London stresses the importance of co-operation between the academic world and industry in overcoming todays challenges together. It is a long path for a researcher to see their idea become a part of a product, but that is always the ultimate goal. She makes sure that all postgraduate students working on their PhD with her spend some time with an industry partner. In many cases, based on her long-standing fruitful relationship with the company, that partner has been ABB. “That’s how the students begin to understand the real-world industrial problems they are solving, and their real-world relevance. Our shared mindset is that we are interested in solving real problems. It is those problems that inspire us to do new theory and develop new methods.” For us to make science fiction science fact, we need curious minds, analytical thinkers, practical doers and true innovators.
We are interested solving real-world problems.

### Creating a better tomorrow through better energy policy
While the origins of the IEA lie in the need to ensure an adequate energy supply to meet the needs of people and economies, over time it has become more and more clear that a big part of ensuring availability has to do with gaining an understanding of how people use energy. The consumption of energy, whether by private households, commerce and industry or the transportation sector, is a particularly important factor as we strive towards improved sustainability and decreased reliance on carbon-intensive fuels. “It is very difficult to imagine economies tackling climate change without leading strongly with energy efficiency. It provides a real opportunity to reduce emissions in a very cost effective and short-term way that can help drive the decarbonisation of energy systems quickly,” Brian Motherway explains.
https://youtu.be/wm42Ur7CwFg
Throughout our conversation, he stresses the fact that the focus of the sustainability and climate change conversation is perhaps too concentrated on the energy supply side and eliminating fossil fuels. He states that governments could really see economic benefits from implementing energy policies with a stronger focus on energy efficiency in their fight against climate change. While huge leaps have been taken to improve energy efficiency, the research carried out by the IEA shows that there is still a lot that can be achieved. “In fact, every sector of the economy could become twice as efficient over the next two decades if there was a stronger policy focus on energy efficiency. And of course, in every sector there are opportunities whether it's making our buildings more efficient or making our vehicles or transport systems more efficient. And of course, in industry too there is a huge opportunity to make key technologies such as motors, drives, pumps and fans more efficient.”
Every sector of the economy could become twice as efficient.
When asked about where technological development is most urgently needed to improve efficiency, Brian Motherway was quick to remind us that many such technologies already exist. “There are many new technologies that are ready and should be deployed. We just need to be a lot faster at deploying those technologies.” He feels that there is a lot of inefficiency locked into the things we use daily; building, vehicles, appliances and such. “There's a real urgent need to concentrate on stopping that lock in and really just making everything that is built or bought or installed today as efficient as it possibly can be.” He goes on to say that he is extremely happy to see that attitudes have changed over time.  “I think there has never been a stronger focus than today on energy efficiency and that's good to see. I think there's a better understanding among governments that energy efficiency has a very strong role to play in climate change, but also in making energy systems, more resilient, more affordable, bringing energy to more people around the world.”
As the Head of Energy Efficiency at IEA, Brian Motherway has a unique view into the world of energy. While he pointed out the many areas where plenty of progress has already been made - electric vehicles, energy efficient homes and more efficient industrial motors to name a few - he recognized digitalization as the next thing to revolutionize the energy efficiency game. “When digitalization really gets deployed in terms of artificial intelligence, big data and the optimization of systems, I think we'll see a whole new generation of potential opening up. Even when every component is already efficient, with advanced control and advanced digital technology, we'll be able to take that to the next level in terms of optimizing and making things even more efficient.”
A whole new generation of potential is opening up.
In 2021 The International Energy Agency is working very closely together with the UK government in conjunction with their COP26 presidency (The United Nations Climate Change Conference), helping them encourage other world governments to raise their ambitions regarding energy efficiency. “It's all about governments around the world saying, we want to move faster to higher levels of efficiency, and we can do that together. The more global the conversation, the more collaborative and harmonized the policies, the more effective they can be.” Brian Motherway is clearly optimistic about the future and believes that 2021 will be an important year for global energy efficiency development. He feels that it is equally important for individuals, companies and governments to set their ambitions high and demanding the same from those around them.
He finished off our inspirational conversation with a few good tips on how we as individuals can do our part and make a difference in creating a more energy efficient and sustainable world. “I think the most important thing all of us can do as individuals, is to be part of that societal movement. We need to express to our elected officials our impatience for stronger policies. We need to see ourselves as part of the collective solution and a part of the bigger picture in addressing these issues.”
Let’s all be part of the social movement towards energy efficiency.

### Partnering with the next generation
Emma has just submitted her master thesis, in which she investigates the environmental impact of an ABB synchronous motor and drive installation over its life cycle. Her findings confirmed the importance of energy efficiency in motor and drive technology in terms of reducing energy consumption, and thus improving environmental performance.
Young people like Emma are showing us the way forward. It is through a scientific and fact-based approach to a topic that often evokes great emotional responses, that we can truly inspire and drive change. Her work not only points out where we can find room for improvement, but it can in fact serve as the basis for creating concrete actions that can improve the energy efficiency and thus environmental performance of industry as a whole.
https://youtu.be/NcpkXksmfXU
When asked why the topic of her thesis was important to her, Emma explained that it combined many of her professional and personal interests. She is a well-educated, technically- and technologically- minded professional with a strong personal link to nature and a belief in taking responsibility for our actions. She sees that through technical innovations we can make changes that are beneficial to both business and environment at the same time. In the case of improving energy efficiency, there really is no down-side to be found in reducing energy consumption.
Emma sees the role of independent studies, especially those carried out by students and young people, to be real drivers for positive change. Her master thesis from Linköping University not only launched her professional career, but it now has all of us taking a closer look at the implications and possibilities of improved energy efficiency in large industrial motor applications. In her case it is safe to say that people have taken note of her work and her work has been highly valued at ABB. Emma exemplifies exactly the kind of people the energy efficiency movement needs.
When asked about how Emma sees the future, not just her own, but society and environment at large, she is hopeful. “There is a lot that can be done. It is definitely the responsibility of all three – governments, industry and individuals, to work together to make a positive impact. Personally, I want to continue to contribute to the themes of energy efficiency and sustainability. It is important for me to be able to work in a company and environment that reflects my own values.” We agree with Emma and urge everyone to commit to a future of improved efficiency and environmental performance.

### Save enough electricity to power a whole country
This year on July 1st, the new EU Ecodesign Regulation (EU) 2019/1781 for motors and drives comes into force. This aims to reduce energy consumption across the whole of the European Union. While the new regulation will directly affect companies that buy, sell and use motors and drives it might be less clear how it will benefit the general public. So how much energy does the EU hope to save and what does it mean in practice?
According to the EU’s own estimates, there are about 8 billion electric motors in use in the EU*. This includes all the electric motors, including those in consumer devices like laptop fans, as well as larger industrial electric motors like water pumps and HVAC systems. By making these motors, and the drives that control them, more efficient the EU aims to save 110 Terawatt hours by 2030. To put that number in context, with the energy saved, you could provide power to the whole of the Netherlands for one year. That is a staggering fact: simply by using more efficient motors and drives, the EU will save more energy than an entire country uses per year.
“Simply by using more efficient motors and drives, the EU will save more energy than an entire country uses per year.”
Achievable energy savings
The good news is that these energy efficiency improvements are achievable. The change simply means that instead of using motors with the old IE2 minimum energy efficiency class, new motors will have to be IE3, and all new drives will have to be IE2. Products that comply with the new regulation have already been on the market for many years, so the switch is technically easy, and it will give motor owners clear energy savings and reduced running costs.
Adding drives to control these motors would improve energy savings even more. In fact, the right combination of drive and motor can cut energy bills by up to 60% compared to a motor continuously running at the full speed in direct-on-line (DOL) use.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiG_pdio-DE
This is only the beginning
However, while using more efficient motors and drives according to the new regulations will bring great benefits, there is still the potential to reduce energy consumption even further. This is because the regulations only specify the minimum efficiency standard required. There are, in fact, motors available which are significantly more efficient than the minimum level, and together with efficient drives they can give you even better performance, especially at partial loads.
By choosing highly efficient motors and variable speed drives, companies can save significant amounts of energy, and they can also ensure that they will comply with new energy efficiency requirements well into the future.
How much could our motors save?
Since ABB offers compliant products, it’s also worth asking what kind of difference ABB motors and drives might make to the world’s energy consumption. To answer, over the course of 2020, ABB’s installed base of high-efficiency motors and drives enabled 198 terawatt-hours of electricity savings, which is equivalent to over three times the total annual consumption of Switzerland.** Again, that’s a lot of saved electricity.

** ABB urges greater adoption of high-efficiency motors and drives to combat climate change – global electricity consumption to be reduced by 10%

### Let’s keep the world turning while saving energy every day
But I am also a realist – it will not be easy, and it will require a lot of focused research, innovation and investment. It will call for collaboration between governments, businesses and academia - working together with a common objective, high urgency and determination.
Where should we start? There is so much we can and should do to mitigate climate change as individuals, businesses, cities and countries. There are things that have immediate and big impact and there are things that have a smaller or a more long-term impact. We must also look at the human cost of the actions we take. We cannot simply stop everything without causing massive human distress.
Where we should focus our attention are areas that have a high impact in the short and long term and have minimal negative impact to human life. One such area is energy efficiency in industries, cities and infrastructure. With the rise in population, automation, urbanization and electrification, the demand for energy will continue to grow.
The most effective way to reduce carbon emissions is to use less energy. However, we can’t switch off everything. We need to produce food, keep water running, air flowing, trains moving and ships sailing, while continuously improving the energy efficiency. With high-efficiency motors and variable speed drives we can do just that.
Independent research estimates that if the existing motor driven systems were replaced with optimized, high-efficiency equipment, the gains to be realized could reduce global electricity consumption by up to 10%. In turn, this would account for more than 40% of the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions needed to meet the 2040 climate goals established by the Paris Agreement.
Please find our white paper on the energy efficiency potential of motors and drives here:
Download the white paper
I believe industrial energy efficiency, more than any other challenge, has the single greatest capacity for combatting the climate emergency. It is essentially the world’s invisible climate solution. With high-efficiency motors and drives that power most of the critical processes around us, we can keep the world turning, while saving energy every day.
Our role as ABB, together with all the global technology companies, is to always provide the most energy efficient technologies and products and to continue to innovate for more. We should also let everybody know of these technologies and innovations, so that they can take them into use. But, as stated in the beginning, we can’t do this alone. We need commitment, collaboration, and action from multiple stakeholders:
Public decision makers and government regulators need to incentivize rapid adoption of the most energy efficient technologies.
Businesses, cities, and countries need to be aware of both the cost savings and environmental advantages and be willing to make the investment.
Investors need to reallocate capital toward companies better prepared to address the climate risk.
Human beings are amazing. When we share a meaningful, urgent and inspiring purpose, we can accomplish almost anything. Together, we can progress and sustain the future of industry and humanity. We are moving forward, but with your help, we can go much further.

### Imagining tomorrow
Innovations can sometimes change the world fundamentally and quickly, but change is more often gradual, happening because of improvements to existing innovations as we find ways  to do things better. But it always requires the ability to imagine something into existence.
For example, our Large Motors and Generators team recorded the highest efficiency ever for Induction Motors with an efficiency value of 98.16% resulting in a new World Record. This record is a huge milestone of innovation and great engineering skills.
It’s good news for our customers as it limits their energy costs and lowers overall operating costs. But it is even greater news for our planet - every increase in efficiency means a reduction in energy usage and lower CO2 emissions.
Over a 20 year period, this higher motor efficiency will result in the saving of more than 5,900 tons of CO2 [1], equating to more than 3000 round-trip flights over the Atlantic from London to New York. [2]
If we can replicate the carbon and energy savings from this motor across all similar motors in operation globally, the energy savings would be enormous. Incremental changes, small tweaks to a design, and the collective contributions of individuals can make a big difference.
Pablo Picasso once said "Everything you can imagine is real." For us, as engineers the only limit to our ingenuity is our imagination. If we can imagine a future that is clean and green, with motors that consume half as much energy, then it must be achievable. It is our job to make that happen.

### Upgraded refrigeration compressor motor at Campbell’s Australia cuts power use by 14 percent 
To find opportunities to reduce power use at the Shepparton plant, operators contacted A1 Electric Motors, an ABB Value Provider. They identified an inefficient, energy-intensive refrigeration compressor motor and conducted a cost-benefit analysis to identify potential savings. The forecasted savings were almost double what the site’s Environmental and Safety Manager expected.  
A1 Electric Motors installed a 72-kilowatt (kW) SynRM IE5 electric motor at the Shepparton plant – and it met the high expectations of the forecast. The high-efficiency refrigeration compressor motor used 14 percent less power than the old model. This results in an annual reduction of approximately 131 tons of CO2 emissions. 
The new motor has also reduced operating costs for the facility by around AUD 15,000 per year. These savings mean that the new motor will quickly pay for itself. The motor also operates more quietly and at a lower temperature than the previous model. In addition to efficient refrigeration and energy savings, the facility has also been able to drop its overload currents from 125 to 110 amps.  
Following the success of this project, Campbell’s Shepparton upgraded a second refrigeration compressor with a 55 kW SynRM motor and ACS580 variable speed drive. Subsequently two additional refrigeration compressor motors were also upgraded with SynRM motor technology, bringing the total to four. 
“After the initial project success, it was a no-brainer to add further SynRM installations, given the rising energy prices, our increased ability to meet our sustainability target and also the fact that we could now rely on a critical piece of infrastructure,” explains Mark Hyland, Environmental and Safety Manager at Campbell’s Australia. 
“Campbell’s Shepparton runs their refrigeration plant 24/7 which means that the SynRM technology has the greatest opportunity to deliver significant energy reductions, resulting in remarkable cost savings,” adds Chris Cheong, Director of A1 Electric Motors. 

### A more energy-efficient hotel: HVAC upgrades at InterContinental Madrid cut energy use by 40 percent  
The InterContinental Madrid hotel has been a favorite among travelers for 70 years. The hotel management was eager to improve the old building’s sustainability, but they felt strongly that any changes shouldn’t compromise convenience or comfort for guests.  
The management conducted an energy efficiency audit with Exel Industrial – an ABB Value Provider. It revealed that the most significant consumers of power within the hotel were the eight pumps that supply the HVAC system and provide hot water to guest rooms. Working with experts from ABB, hotel management decided to replace them with 16 higher-efficiency electric motors.  
The new pump motors were paired with 13 ABB ACH550 variable speed drives (VSDs) designed for HVAC applications. They enable more precise operation and save power any time the motor is not running at full speed. The motor-drive packages are also quieter and more reliable than the old motors.  
These upgrades to the hotel heating and cooling systems, combined with an intelligent motion solution, reduced energy use by 445,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) annually – a 40 percent decrease. This huge saving has a significant impact on the hotel’s operating costs, cutting its annual energy spending by approximately $37,000. As a result, the upgrades paid for themselves in under two years.  
The more energy-efficient hotel exceeded InterContinental’s objectives, eliminating the equivalent of 253 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year.  
Esteban Rodriguez, Chief Engineer of the InterContinental Hotel Madrid, explains: “InterContinental is very interested in increasing the sustainability of the chain through the Green Engage program. In this program, all the hotels aim to achieve higher levels of sustainability.”  
Enrique Bernard Lillo, Quality and Financial Manager of Exel Industrial, adds: “During this fieldwork, we observed that decreasing the frequency of the motor by 10 percent would produce energy savings of 40 percent.”

### Boîte à outils de communication
Pour vous aider à partager votre engagement avec le Mouvement pour l'efficacité énergétique, nous avons créé une variété de modèles pour les communications via les médias sociaux, les bulletins d'information ou votre site web. N'hésitez pas à les utiliser pour annoncer votre adhésion, inviter d'autres personnes à vous rejoindre ou promouvoir notre mission commune en faveur de l'efficacité énergétique. N'hésitez pas à choisir un modèle qui correspond à la voix de votre entreprise ou à l'adapter à votre propre message.    
Vous trouverez également des éléments visuels pour soutenir votre communication : le logo EEM disponible en différents formats, ainsi que des images EEM. N'hésitez pas à les utiliser pour vos communications internes et externes sur différents canaux. 
N'oubliez pas de respecter notre code de conduite en matière de médias sociaux et de contribuer à faire connaître notre engagement collectif en faveur d'un avenir durable.  
Lignes directrices pour les médias sociaux
L'EEM vous encourage à utiliser les canaux de médias sociaux de manière consciente et durable en suivant ces 5 règles générales : 
Agissez en tant qu'ambassadeur : N'oubliez pas que vous êtes le porte-parole de l'EEM. Choisissez soigneusement les sujets que vous souhaitez aborder, comportez-vous de manière professionnelle et démontrez votre expertise. 
Montrez votre personnalité : Essayez de montrer votre voix humaine dans vos écrits, évitez le jargon et restez simple. 
Traitez les autres avec respect : Soyez objectif et fondez vos arguments sur des faits. Dans votre propre intérêt et dans celui de l'EEM, évitez tout contenu diffamatoire, offensant ou provocateur. 
Apportez une valeur ajoutée : Ne publiez que du contenu pertinent pour votre public. Cela signifie également qu'il ne suffit pas de retweeter ou de partager des messages provenant d'autres comptes. Lorsque vous retweetez ou partagez des messages d'autres comptes, ajoutez votre évaluation personnelle pour accroître la pertinence. 
Respectez les droits, en particulier les droits d'auteur : Si nécessaire, assurez-vous d'avoir l'autorisation de l'auteur et de nommer les informations relatives aux droits d'auteur lorsque vous distribuez des vidéos, de la musique ou des photos de tiers. Respectez les règles du GDPR : Vous devez veiller, en particulier avec les vidéos, les photos et les informations privées, à protéger les droits personnels des personnes concernées. Vérifiez si vous avez besoin du consentement d'une personne avant de publier.  
Afin d'éviter tout problème juridique ou toute dispute publique, veuillez respecter les règles suivantes : 
Ne partagez pas de sujets financiers : Quelle que soit votre position, les sujets financiers ne doivent être communiqués que par l'intermédiaire des canaux de l'EEM. 
Ne partagez pas les données relatives à la stratégie, aux déménageurs ou aux ventes : Toute information confidentielle, protégée par des droits d'auteur ou n'ayant pas encore fait l'objet d'une publication officielle ne doit pas être publiée en ligne. Cela comprend également les détails sur les produits et les technologies. 
Ne commentez pas les questions controversées : Ne commentez pas, n'aimez pas, ne retweetez pas et ne partagez pas de messages controversés et évitez les déclarations sur la religion, les partis politiques ou les situations de crise.
Ne soyez pas négatif à l'égard de vos collègues déménageurs ou partenaires : De mauvaises expériences avec des clients, des fournisseurs ou des partenaires peuvent se produire. Ces expériences ne doivent pas être abordées sur les médias sociaux car elles peuvent nuire à la réputation de nos entreprises partenaires et à la nôtre par la même occasion. 
Exigences légales et code de conduite pour les médias sociaux
1.1 Code de conduite 
Comme pour tout ce que nous faisons chez EEM, notre code de conduite s'applique aux communications sur les médias sociaux. Lorsque vous publiez votre compte sur les médias sociaux, n'oubliez pas que vous représentez officiellement EEM en tant que déménageur et que vous devez agir en conséquence. Veillez tout particulièrement à ne pas divulguer d'informations sensibles et/ou confidentielles, à ne pas enfreindre les droits d'auteur et à communiquer avec respect. 
1.2 Confidentialité des données 
Dans l'UE, le règlement général sur la protection des données (RGPD) vise à donner aux individus une protection et un contrôle sur leurs données personnelles. L'EEM s'y conformera à tous les niveaux. Des règles plus strictes peuvent s'appliquer dans certains pays. En cas de doute sur l'utilisation d'images et de vidéos, veuillez consulter l'équipe de l'EEM.
1.3 Droits d'auteur 
Ne copiez pas de texte ou tout autre matériel protégé par des droits d'auteur provenant d'un tiers. Vous pouvez écrire sur n'importe quelle information publique appropriée, à condition de le faire dans vos propres mots et de ne pas enfreindre les restrictions thématiques énumérées (voir section 4.1 - Quel contenu puis-je poster ?). Lorsque vous faites référence à des textes externes (par exemple, des articles de presse ou des messages), la source du contenu doit être clairement indiquée.  
Si vous ne trouvez pas d'images ou de vidéos de la marque EEM qui conviennent, veuillez contacter l'équipe EEM pour demander du matériel supplémentaire. 
Respectez les lois sur la protection de la vie privée lorsque vous prenez des photos de personnes. Soyez prudent avec les sites de tiers, car ils peuvent être protégés par des droits d'auteur ou faire l'objet d'autres restrictions. Veillez à ne pas afficher d'informations sensibles ou confidentielles. En cas de doute sur les images, veuillez consulter l'équipe EEM. Veillez également à respecter les conditions d'utilisation des plateformes respectives, qui peuvent aller au-delà des exigences légales. Toute violation des conditions d'utilisation peut entraîner la suppression du contenu ou la suspension du compte. 
1.4 L'écoblanchiment 
L'EEM ne tolère aucune forme d'écoblanchiment, qui consiste à faire des déclarations fausses ou trompeuses sur le respect de l'environnement et les efforts d'une organisation. Règles de base pour prévenir l'écoblanchiment : 
L'EEM s'engage à fournir des informations véridiques, précises et vérifiables sur les avantages et les impacts environnementaux de ses activités, solutions et technologies.
Nos déclarations environnementales sont fondées sur des preuves, des données et des méthodologies fiables et actualisées. 
Ne faites pas d'affirmations ou de déclarations fausses ou trompeuses susceptibles de tromper ou d'embrouiller nos bénéficiaires, nos membres, nos partenaires ou le public au sujet de la performance environnementale ou des caractéristiques de notre organisation. 
Veillez à ce que vos affirmations soient claires et précises et évitez les termes vagues et trompeurs. Par exemple, évitez les termes vagues tels que "vert" ou "écologique". 
Veillez à ce que toutes les déclarations environnementales puissent être étayées par des preuves valables et crédibles. Fournissez la source et la méthodologie de vos données et de vos calculs, le cas échéant.

Bitte denken Sie daran, unseren Verhaltenskodex für soziale Medien zu befolgen, wenn Sie dazu beitragen, unser gemeinsames Engagement für eine nachhaltige Zukunft bekannt zu machen.  
Richtlinien für soziale Medien
EEM ermutigt Sie, soziale Medienkanäle bewusst und nachhaltig zu nutzen, indem Sie diese 5 allgemeinen Regeln befolgen: 
Handeln Sie als Botschafter: Seien Sie sich bewusst, dass Sie als Sprecher für EEM auftreten. Wählen Sie die Themen, über die Sie sprechen möchten, sorgfältig aus, verhalten Sie sich professionell und zeigen Sie Ihr Fachwissen. 
Zeigen Sie Persönlichkeit: Achten Sie darauf, Ihre menschliche Stimme in Ihrem Text zu zeigen, vermeiden Sie Jargon und halten Sie ihn einfach. 
Behandeln Sie andere mit Respekt: Seien Sie objektiv und stützen Sie Ihre Argumente auf Fakten. Vermeiden Sie in Ihrem eigenen Interesse und im Interesse von EEM verleumderische, beleidigende oder provokative Inhalte. 
Bieten Sie einen Mehrwert: Posten Sie nur Inhalte, die für Ihr Publikum relevant sind. Das bedeutet auch, dass das alleinige Retweeten oder Teilen von Beiträgen von anderen Konten nicht ausreicht. Wenn Sie Beiträge von anderen Konten retweeten oder teilen, fügen Sie Ihre persönliche Bewertung hinzu, um die Relevanz zu erhöhen. 
Beachten Sie die Rechte, insbesondere die Urheberrechte: Vergewissern Sie sich bei Bedarf, dass Sie die Erlaubnis des Autors haben und die Urheberrechtsinformationen nennen, wenn Sie Videos, Musik oder Fotos von Dritten verbreiten. Befolgen Sie die GDPR-Regeln: Sie müssen insbesondere bei Videos, Bildern und privaten Informationen darauf achten, die Persönlichkeitsrechte der betroffenen Personen zu schützen. Prüfen Sie, ob Sie die Zustimmung der Person benötigen, bevor Sie veröffentlichen  
Um rechtliche Probleme oder öffentliche Auseinandersetzungen zu vermeiden, beachten Sie bitte die folgenden Verhaltensregeln: 
Teilen Sie keine Finanzthemen: Unabhängig von Ihrer Position dürfen Finanzthemen nur über die Kanäle von EEM kommuniziert werden. 
Geben Sie keine Strategie-, Mover- oder Verkaufsdaten weiter: Alle Informationen, die vertraulich oder urheberrechtlich geschützt sind oder noch nicht offiziell veröffentlicht wurden, dürfen nicht online veröffentlicht werden. Dazu gehören auch Details zu Produkten und Technologien. 
Kommentieren Sie keine kontroversen Themen: Kommentieren, liken oder retweeten/teilen Sie keine kontroversen Beiträge und vermeiden Sie Aussagen über Religion, politische Parteien oder Krisensituationen.
Äußern Sie sich nicht negativ über Ihre Movers-Kollegen oder Partner: Schlechte Erfahrungen mit Kunden, Lieferanten oder Partnern können vorkommen. Diese Erfahrungen sollten nicht in den sozialen Medien thematisiert werden, da sie den Ruf unserer Partnerunternehmen und gleichzeitig unseren Ruf schädigen können. 
Rechtliche Anforderungen und Verhaltenskodex für soziale Medien
1.1 Verhaltenskodex 
Wie für alles, was wir bei EEM tun, gilt auch für die Kommunikation in den sozialen Medien unser Verhaltenskodex. Wenn Sie auf Ihrem Konto in den sozialen Medien posten, denken Sie daran, dass Sie EEM offiziell als Vermittler repräsentieren und entsprechend handeln sollten. Achten Sie besonders darauf, keine sensiblen und/oder vertraulichen Informationen zu veröffentlichen, keine Urheberrechte zu verletzen und respektvoll zu kommunizieren. 
1.2 Datenschutz 
In der EU zielt die Allgemeine Datenschutzverordnung (GDPR) darauf ab, dem Einzelnen Schutz und Kontrolle über seine persönlichen Daten zu geben. Die EEM wird sich auf allen Ebenen daran halten. In einigen Ländern können strengere Regeln gelten. Wenn Sie Zweifel an der Verwendung von Bildern und Videos haben, wenden Sie sich bitte an das EEM-Team.
1.3 Urheberrecht 
Kopieren Sie keine Texte oder anderes urheberrechtlich geschütztes Material von anderen Parteien. Sie können über jede geeignete öffentliche Information schreiben, solange sie in Ihren eigenen Worten abgefasst ist und nicht gegen die aufgelisteten thematischen Einschränkungen verstößt (siehe Abschnitt 4.1 - Welche Inhalte kann ich posten?). Wenn Sie sich auf externe Texte (z.B. Medienartikel oder Beiträge) beziehen, muss die Quelle des Inhalts deutlich angegeben werden.  
Wenn Sie keine passenden Bilder oder Videos der Marke EEM finden können, wenden Sie sich bitte an das EEM-Team, um weiteres Material anzufordern. 
Beachten Sie die Datenschutzgesetze, wenn Sie Fotos von Menschen machen. Seien Sie vorsichtig bei Aufnahmen von Dritten, da diese möglicherweise urheberrechtlich geschützt oder anderweitig eingeschränkt sind. Achten Sie darauf, dass Sie keine sensiblen oder vertraulichen Informationen zeigen. Im Zweifelsfall wenden Sie sich bitte an das EEM-Team. Bitte beachten Sie auch die Nutzungsbedingungen der jeweiligen Plattformen, die über die gesetzlichen Anforderungen hinausgehen können. Verstöße gegen die Bedingungen können dazu führen, dass Inhalte gelöscht oder Konten gesperrt werden. 
1.4 Greenwashing 
Die EEM duldet keine Form von Greenwashing, d.h. die Praxis, falsche oder irreführende Behauptungen über die Umweltfreundlichkeit und die Bemühungen einer Organisation aufzustellen. Grundregeln zur Vermeidung von Greenwashing:  
EEM verpflichtet sich, wahrheitsgemäße, genaue und überprüfbare Informationen über die Umweltvorteile und -auswirkungen seiner Aktivitäten, Lösungen und Technologien zu liefern. 
Unsere Umweltaussagen beruhen auf zuverlässigen und aktuellen Beweisen, Daten und Methoden. 
Machen Sie keine falschen oder irreführenden Behauptungen oder Aussagen, die unsere Begünstigten, Mitglieder, Partner oder die Öffentlichkeit über die Umweltleistung oder die Eigenschaften unserer Organisation täuschen oder verwirren könnten. 
Stellen Sie sicher, dass Ihre Behauptungen klar und spezifisch sind und vermeiden Sie vage und irreführende Formulierungen. Vermeiden Sie zum Beispiel vage Begriffe wie "grün" oder "umweltfreundlich". 
Stellen Sie sicher, dass alle umweltbezogenen Behauptungen mit gültigen und glaubwürdigen Beweisen belegt werden können. Geben Sie gegebenenfalls die Quelle und Methodik Ihrer Daten und Berechnungen an.

### Toolkit comunicazione
Per aiutarti a condividere la tua partecipazione all''Energy Efficiency Movement, abbiamo creato template e modelli per le comunicazioni tramite social media, newsletter o sito web. Puoi utilizzarli per annunciare la tua adesione, invitare altri ad aderire o promuovere la nostra missione comune di efficienza energetica. Scegli il modello che più si adatta alla tua azienda, puoi anche personalizzarlo per creare il tuo messaggio.   
Troverai anche materiali grafici per supportare le tue comunicazioni: il logo EEM disponibile in diversi formati, così come le immagini EEM. Puoi utilizzarle per le tue comunicazioni interne ed esterne su vari canali. 
Quando contribuisci a diffondere il nostro impegno per un futuro sostenibile sui social media, ricordati di seguire il nostro codice di condotta. 
Linee guida per i social media
L'EEM ti incoraggia a utilizzare i social media in modo consapevole e sostenibile, seguendo queste 5 regole generali:
Agisci come ambasciatore: stai agendo come portavoce dell'EEM. Per questo, scegli con cura gli argomenti di cui vuoi parlare, comportati in modo professionale e dimostra la tua competenza.
Mostra la tua personalità: evita il gergo, mantieni semplicità e cerca di utilizzare un linguaggio naturale che rispecchi la tua voce.
Tratta gli altri con rispetto: sii obiettivo e basa le tue argomentazioni sui fatti. Nel tuo interesse e nell'interesse di EEM, evita contenuti diffamatori, offensivi o provocatori. 
Crea valore aggiunto: pubblica solo contenuti rilevanti per il tuo pubblico. Questo significa anche che il solo retweet o la condivisione di post di altri account non è sufficiente. Quando condividi i post di altri account, aggiungi il tuo contributo personale per aumentare la rilevanza.
Rispetta i diritti, in particolare i diritti d'autore: se richiesto, assicurati di avere l'autorizzazione dell'autore e le informazioni sul copyright quando condividi video, musica o foto di terzi. Segui le regole del GDPR: assicurati, soprattutto per video, immagini e informazioni private, di proteggere i diritti personali delle persone interessate. Verifica se è necessario il consenso di una persona prima di pubblicarla.  
Per evitare problemi legali o discussioni pubbliche, segui le seguenti regole:
Non condividere informazioni finanziarie: indipendentemente dalla tua posizione, gli argomenti finanziari devono essere comunicati solo attraverso i canali di EEM.
Non condividere strategie, Mover o i dati di vendita: tutte le informazioni riservate, protette da copyright o che non sono ancora state ufficialmente rese pubbliche non devono essere pubblicate online. Questo include anche i dettagli dei prodotti e delle tecnologie.
Non interagire con questioni controverse: non commentare, non mettere "mi piace" o non condividere post controversi ed evita dichiarazioni su religione, partiti politici o situazioni di crisi.
Non usare un tono negativo nei confronti di altri Movers o partner: possono verificarsi esperienze negative con clienti, fornitori o partner. Queste esperienze non devono essere affrontate sui social media, perché possono danneggiare la reputazione delle nostre aziende partner e allo stesso tempo la nostra reputazione. 
Requisiti legali e codice di condotta sui social media
1.1 Codice di condotta 
Come per tutto ciò che facciamo, il nostro Codice di Condotta si applica alle comunicazioni sui social media. Quando pubblichi sui social media, ricordati che rappresenti ufficialmente l'Energy Efficiency Movement in qualità di Mover e che devi agire di conseguenza. Fai particolare attenzione a non divulgare informazioni sensibili e/o riservate, a non violare il copyright e a comunicare in modo rispettoso.
1.2 Privacy dei dati 
Nell'UE, il Regolamento generale sulla protezione dei dati (GDPR) mira a fornire alle persone la protezione e il controllo dei loro dati personali. L'EEM sarà conforme a tutti i livelli. In alcuni Paesi possono essere applicate regole più severe. In caso di dubbi sull'utilizzo di immagini e video, rivolgiti al team dell'EEM.
1.3 Copyright 
Non copiare il testo o altro materiale protetto da copyright di terzi. Puoi scrivere su qualsiasi informazione pubblica adeguata, purché sia scritta con parole tue e non violi le restrizioni sugli argomenti elencate (vedi la sezione 4.1 - Quali contenuti posso pubblicare?). Quando fai riferimento a testi esterni (ad esempio, articoli o post dei media), la fonte del contenuto deve essere chiaramente indicata. 
Se non trovi immagini o video adatti al marchio EEM, contatta il team EEM per richiedere altro materiale.
Rispetta le leggi sulla privacy quando fotografi le persone. Presta attenzione ai luoghi di terzi, perché potrebbero essere protetti da copyright o da altre restrizioni. Assicurati di non mostrare informazioni sensibili o riservate. In caso di dubbi sulle immagini, consulta il team EEM. Assicurati, inoltre, di seguire i termini di utilizzo delle rispettive piattaforme, che potrebbero andare oltre i requisiti legali. La violazione dei termini potrebbe comportare la cancellazione dei contenuti o la sospensione degli account.
1.4 Greenwashing 
L'EEM non tollera alcuna forma di greenwashing, ossia la pratica di fare affermazioni false o fuorvianti sull'ecocompatibilità e sugli sforzi di un'organizzazione. Regole di base per prevenire il greenwashing:  
EEM si impegna a fornire informazioni veritiere, accurate e verificabili sui benefici e gli impatti ambientali delle sue attività, soluzioni e tecnologie. 
Le nostre dichiarazioni ambientali si basano su prove, dati e metodologie affidabili e aggiornate. 
Non fare affermazioni o dichiarazioni false o fuorvianti che possano ingannare o confondere i nostri beneficiari, i membri, i partner o il pubblico circa le prestazioni o gli attributi ambientali della nostra organizzazione. 
Assicurati che le tue affermazioni siano chiare e specifiche ed evita un linguaggio vago e fuorviante. Ad esempio, evita termini vaghi come "verde" o "ecologico".
Assicurati che tutte le affermazioni ambientali possano essere corroborate da prove valide e credibili. Fornisci la fonte e la metodologia dei tuoi dati e dei tuoi calcoli, quando opportuno.

Directrices para las redes sociales
La EEM le anima a utilizar los canales de las redes sociales de forma consciente y sostenible siguiendo estas 5 reglas generales:
Actúe como embajador: Sea consciente de que actúa como portavoz de la EEM. Elija cuidadosamente los temas sobre los que quiere hablar, compórtese con profesionalidad y demuestre su experiencia.
Muestre personalidad: Intente mostrar su voz humana en su escrito, evite la jerga y manténgalo sencillo.
Trate a los demás con respeto: Sea objetivo y base sus argumentos en hechos. En su propio interés y en el de EEM, evite los contenidos difamatorios, ofensivos o provocadores. 
Aporte valor añadido: Publique únicamente contenidos que sean relevantes para su audiencia. Esto también significa que no basta con retuitear o compartir publicaciones de otras cuentas. Cuando retuitee o comparta publicaciones de otras cuentas, añada su valoración personal para aumentar la relevancia.
Tenga en cuenta los derechos, especialmente los de autor: Si es necesario, asegúrese de contar con el permiso del autor y de nombrar los derechos de autor cuando distribuya vídeos, música o fotos de terceros. Siga las normas GDPR: Debe asegurarse, especialmente con vídeos, imágenes e información privada, de proteger los derechos personales de las personas afectadas. Compruebe si necesita el consentimiento de la persona antes de publicar  
Para evitar problemas legales o discusiones públicas, tenga en cuenta lo que no debe hacer:
No comparta temas financieros: Independientemente de su posición, los temas financieros sólo deben comunicarse a través de los canales de EEM.
No comparta datos sobre estrategia, Mover o ventas: Cualquier información confidencial, protegida por derechos de autor o que aún no se haya hecho pública oficialmente no debe publicarse en Internet. Esto incluye también detalles sobre productos y tecnologías.
No comente temas controvertidos: No comente, haga "me gusta" ni retuitee/comparta publicaciones controvertidas y evite hacer declaraciones sobre religión, partidos políticos o situaciones de crisis.
No sea negativo con sus compañeros de mudanza o socios: Las malas experiencias con clientes, proveedores o socios pueden ocurrir. Estas experiencias no deben tratarse en las redes sociales, ya que pueden dañar la reputación de nuestras empresas asociadas y nuestra reputación al mismo tiempo. 
Requisitos legales y código de conducta en los medios sociales
1.1 Código de conducta 
Como para todo lo que hacemos en EEM, nuestro Código de Conducta se aplica a las comunicaciones en los medios sociales. Cuando publique en los medios sociales su cuenta, recuerde que representa oficialmente a EEM como empresa de mudanzas y debe actuar en consecuencia. Tenga especial cuidado de no divulgar información sensible y/o confidencial, de no infringir los derechos de autor y de comunicarse con respeto.
1.2 Privacidad de los datos 
En la UE, el Reglamento General de Protección de Datos (RGPD) tiene como objetivo ofrecer a las personas protección y control sobre sus datos personales. El EEM lo cumplirá a todos los niveles. En algunos países pueden aplicarse normas más estrictas. En caso de duda sobre el uso de imágenes y vídeos, consulte con el equipo del EEM.
1.3 Derechos de autor 
No copie texto ni ningún otro material protegido por derechos de autor de terceros. Puede escribir sobre cualquier información pública adecuada, siempre que lo haga con sus propias palabras y no infrinja las restricciones temáticas indicadas (véase la sección 4.1 - ¿Qué contenidos puedo publicar?). Cuando haga referencia a textos externos (por ejemplo, artículos de medios de comunicación o posts), deberá indicar claramente la fuente del contenido. 
Si no encuentra imágenes o vídeos adecuados de la marca EEM, póngase en contacto con el equipo de EEM para solicitar más material.
Tenga en cuenta las leyes de privacidad cuando tome fotografías de personas. Tenga cuidado con las localizaciones de terceros, ya que pueden estar protegidas por derechos de autor o restringidas de algún otro modo. Asegúrese de no mostrar información sensible o confidencial. En caso de duda sobre las imágenes, consulte con el equipo de EEM. Asegúrese también de respetar las condiciones de uso de las respectivas plataformas, que pueden ir más allá de los requisitos legales. El incumplimiento de las condiciones puede dar lugar a la eliminación de los contenidos o a la suspensión de las cuentas.
1.4 El lavado verde 
La EEM no tolera ninguna forma de lavado verde, que es la práctica de hacer afirmaciones falsas o engañosas sobre el respeto al medio ambiente y los esfuerzos de una organización. Reglas básicas para evitar el lavado verde: 
EEM se compromete a proporcionar información veraz, precisa y verificable sobre los beneficios e impactos medioambientales de sus actividades, soluciones y tecnologías.
Nuestras afirmaciones medioambientales se basan en pruebas, datos y metodologías fiables y actualizados.
No haga afirmaciones o declaraciones falsas o engañosas que puedan engañar o confundir a nuestros beneficiarios, miembros, socios o al público en general sobre el comportamiento o los atributos medioambientales de nuestra organización.
Asegúrese de que sus afirmaciones son claras y específicas y evite el lenguaje vago y engañoso. Por ejemplo, evite términos vagos como "verde" o "ecológico".
Asegúrese de que todas las afirmaciones medioambientales pueden fundamentarse con pruebas válidas y creíbles. Facilite la fuente y la metodología de sus datos y cálculos cuando proceda.

DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA 
We may disclose personal data to the following categories of recipients: 
Affiliated entities and/or project and/or business partners;  
Service providers, suppliers and subcontractors, including processors (such as IT service providers); 
Domestic and foreign authorities or courts as well as arbitral tribunals, parties in possible or pending legal proceedings; 
The public, including users of our websites and social media; 
Industry organizations, associations, organizations and other bodies; 
Other parties in connection with corporate transactions. 
If we transfer personal data to third parties, the respective third party may process personal data in accordance with their own privacy notices and regulations.  
DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA TO OTHER JURISDICTIONS 
We may disclose personal data to recipients outside of Switzerland, including to EU/EEA member states, the UK, the US and to any other country of the world, e.g., to countries where our affiliates, partners or service providers (such as EU/EEA member states, UK, USA) are located. 
We ensure adequate protection, namely by means of sufficient contractual guarantees such as the standard contractual clauses of the European Commission and binding corporate rules. You can obtain a copy of the contractual guarantees from the contact point mentioned above or find out from them where such a copy can be obtained. We reserve the right to redact such copies for data protection reasons or for reasons of confidentiality or to supply only excerpts; 
We may disclose personal data to a country without adequate legal data protection, in the following circumstances: 
You give your express consent; 
It is necessary for the execution of a contract with you or of a contract in your interest;  
It is necessary for the fulfillment of a legal obligation;  
It is necessary to safeguard overriding public interests, to establish, exercise or enforce legal claims or to protect the life or physical integrity of you or third parties; 
You have made the personal data generally accessible and do not expressly prohibit processing; or 
The personal data originate from a register provided for by law, which is public or accessible to persons with an interest worthy of protection, insofar as the legal requirements for inspection are met in the individual case. 
DURATION OF THE RETENTION OF PERSONAL DATA 
We process and store personal data as long as it is necessary for the processing purpose for which we collected it (e.g., for the duration of the entire business or contractual relationship from the initiation until the termination of a contract). In addition, there may be a contractual or legal obligation to retain or document data for a longer period. It is possible that personal data will be stored for the time during which claims can be asserted against our company and insofar as we are otherwise legally obligated to do so, or legitimate business interests require this (e.g. for evidence and documentation purposes). We thus store contract-related personal data in principle for the duration of the contractual relationship and for ten years beyond the termination of the contractual relationship. 
If the personal data is no longer required for the fulfillment of the processing purpose, it will be deleted or anonymized as far as possible. Subject to an express written agreement, we are under no obligation to you to retain personal data for a specific period of time. 
DATA SECURITY 
We take appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data from unauthorized access and misuse, such as the issuance of warnings, training, IT and network security solutions, access controls and restrictions, encryption of data media and transmissions, pseudonymization, controls. 
RIGHTS OF THE DATA SUBJECT 
Under applicable data protection law, you may have the following rights:  
A right to be informed upon your request of our processing of your personal data; 
A right to correction, deletion or destruction of your personal data; 
A right to objection to the processing of your personal data; 
A right to revoke your consent if the processing of your personal data is based on your consent. The revocation is possible at any time and is effective for the future. The revocation does not affect the lawfulness of the data processing that took place until the revocation. 
A right to receive your personal data in certain cases and in an electronic format that allows your further use; 
A right to information regarding any automated individual decision-making in which we may engage, insofar as this is required by law.  
To exercise your rights, you may contact us at the contact point mentioned above. The exercise of your rights generally requires that you can prove your identity (e.g., by sending us a copy of your valid ID). We also draw your attention to the fact that by deleting your personal data, services are no longer available or can no longer be used, in whole or in part, and that the exercise of these rights may conflict with contractual agreements and this may have consequences such as the premature termination of the contract or cost consequences. We will inform you in advance if this is not already contractually regulated. We reserve the right to restrict your rights where permitted by applicable law. 
You may have the right to enforce your claims in court or to file a complaint with the competent data protection authority. The competent data protection authority in Switzerland is the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner (http://www.edoeb.admin.ch). 
OBLIGATIONS OF THE DATA SUBJECT 
In the context of our relationship, you must provide the personal data that is required for the establishment and implementation of a relationship and the fulfillment of the associated contractual obligations (you do not usually have a legal obligation to provide us with data). Without this data, we will generally not be able to enter into or perform a contract with you (or the entity or person you represent). Also, the Website cannot be used if certain traffic-securing information (such as IP address) is not disclosed. 
If you provide us with personal data of other persons (e.g. data of work colleagues), you must ensure that these persons are aware of this privacy notice and you may only share their personal data with us if you are allowed to do so and if this personal data is correct.  
Please note that the Internet is generally not a secure environment because it is an open network that can be accessed by anyone. Therefore, we also appeal to your personal responsibility with regard to the handling of your personal data. To the extent permitted by law, we exclude liability for the security of data that you transmit to us via the internet (e.g., by e-mail) or other electronic channels and for any direct or indirect damage. We ask you to choose other communication channels, should this appear necessary or reasonable for security reasons. 
MODIFICATION OF THE PRIVACY NOTICE

### 工业能效
工业领域的当务之急
根据国际能源署（IEA）的观点，提高能源效率对于实现《巴黎协定》的目标以及到 2050 年实现净零排放至关重要。
然而，要实现这一目标，需要在 2030 年之前将能源效率的提高速度翻一番。面对这一挑战，作为最大的温室气体排放源之一，工业和商业企业需要改变其运营方式。 
我们的新报告 "工业节能增效案例"列出了企业可以采取的 10 项关键节能增效举措的财务影响和碳减排效果，这些举措围绕三大战略支柱展开：构建能效基础、获取能效回报、洞悉能效机遇。
企业参与其中的理由十分明确：无论是改善公司的收入报表，还是遏制全球变暖，提高能源效率都能带来切实回报。

### Efficacité industrielle
L'impératif de l'industrie
Selon l'Association internationale de l'énergie (AIE), l'amélioration de l'efficacité énergétique est essentielle pour atteindre les objectifs de l'Accord de Paris et parvenir à un bilan net nul d'ici 2050.
Pour y parvenir, il faudra toutefois doubler le rythme des progrès en matière d'efficacité énergétique d'ici à 2030. Face à ce défi, les organisations industrielles et commerciales, qui constituent l'une des principales sources d'émissions de gaz à effet de serre, doivent modifier leur mode de fonctionnement. 
Notre nouveau rapport, "The Case for Industrial Energy Efficiency", présente les impacts financiers et carbone de 10 actions clés d'efficacité énergétique que les entreprises peuvent prendre, à travers trois piliers stratégiques : construire une base d'efficacité, stimuler les retours d'efficacité, et acquérir des connaissances en matière d'efficacité.
L'argumentaire est clair: qu'il s'agisse d'améliorer le compte de résultat des entreprises ou de limiter le réchauffement de la planète, l'efficacité énergétique est rentable.

### Industrielle Effizienz
Der Imperativ der Industrie
Laut der International Energy Association (IEA) sind Verbesserungen der Energieeffizienz entscheidend, um die Ziele des Pariser Abkommens zu erreichen und bis 2050 einen Netto-Nullverbrauch zu erzielen.
Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, müssen die Fortschritte bei der Energieeffizienz bis 2030 jedoch verdoppelt werden. Angesichts dieser Herausforderung müssen Industrie- und Handelsunternehmen als eine der größten Quellen von Treibhausgasemissionen ihre Arbeitsweise ändern. 
Unser neuer Bericht "The Case for Industrial Energy Efficiency" zeigt die finanziellen und ökologischen Auswirkungen von 10 wichtigen Energieeffizienzmaßnahmen auf, die Unternehmen ergreifen können, und zwar auf drei strategischen Säulen: Aufbau einer Effizienzgrundlage, Steigerung der Effizienzrendite und Gewinnung von Erkenntnissen über die Effizienz.
Der Business Case ist klar: Ob es darum geht, die Gewinn- und Verlustrechnung von Unternehmen zu verbessern oder die Erderwärmung einzudämmen, Energieeffizienz zahlt sich aus.

### Efficienza industriale
L'imperativo del settore
Secondo l'Associazione Internazionale dell'Energia (AIE), i miglioramenti nell'efficienza energetica sono essenziali per raggiungere gli obiettivi dell'Accordo di Parigi e per arrivare a un livello netto zero entro il 2050.
Per arrivarci, tuttavia, sarà necessario raddoppiare il tasso di progresso nell'efficienza energetica, fino al 2030. Di fronte a questa sfida, in quanto una delle maggiori fonti di emissioni di gas serra, le organizzazioni industriali e commerciali devono cambiare il loro modo di operare. 
Il nostro nuovo rapporto, "The Case for Industrial Energy Efficiency", illustra l'impatto finanziario e sulle emissioni di carbonio di 10 azioni chiave per l'efficienza energetica che le aziende possono intraprendere, attraverso tre pilastri strategici: costruire una base di efficienza, guidare i rendimenti dell'efficienza e acquisire conoscenze sull'efficienza.
Il business case è chiaro: che si tratti di migliorare i conti economici delle aziende o di contenere il riscaldamento del pianeta, l'efficienza energetica paga.

### Eficiencia industrial
El imperativo de la industria
Según la Asociación Internacional de la Energía (AIE), las mejoras en la eficiencia energética son esenciales para lograr los objetivos del Acuerdo de París y alcanzar el objetivo de cero emisiones netas en 2050.
Sin embargo, para conseguirlo será necesario duplicar el ritmo de progreso en materia de eficiencia energética hasta 2030. Ante este reto, como una de las mayores fuentes de emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero, las organizaciones industriales y comerciales necesitan cambiar su forma de operar. 
Nuestro nuevo informe, "El caso de la eficiencia energética industrial", expone los impactos financieros y de carbono de 10 acciones clave de eficiencia energética que las empresas pueden tomar, a través de tres pilares estratégicos: construir una base de eficiencia, impulsar los rendimientos de la eficiencia y obtener conocimientos de eficiencia.
El argumento comercial es claro: tanto si se trata de mejorar las cuentas de resultados de las empresas como de contener el calentamiento planetario, la eficiencia energética sale a cuenta.

### Industrial efficiency
Industry’s Imperative
According to the International Energy Association (IEA), improvements in energy efficiency are essential to achieving the aims of the Paris Agreement and achieving net zero by 2050.
Getting there will require a doubling of the rate of progress on energy efficiency, however, through 2030. In the face of this challenge, as one of the biggest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, industrial and commercial organizations need to change how they operate.
Our new report, “The Case for Industrial Energy Efficiency,” lays out the financial and carbon impacts of 10 key energy efficiency actions companies can take, across three strategic pillars: building an efficiency foundation, driving efficiency returns, and gaining efficiency insights.
The business case is clear: Whether it’s improving companies’ income statements or containing planetary heating, energy efficiency pays off.

### High-Level Stakeholder Forum “Waste heat recovery: a game changer for energy-efficient buildings and industries”
Capturing and reusing excess heat — on-site or through heating and cooling networks — is essential to replace fossil fuels in buildings and industry, strengthen ties between cities and industry, and accelerate decarbonisation while easing pressure on the power grid.
Europe generates 2,860 TWh of excess heat each year, enough to cover most building and hot-water demand. Yet despite this massive potential, projects remain scarce. At the 10th Annual Global Conference on Energy Efficiency (Brussels, June 2025), the European Commission announced new measures to unlock up to 11% of EU heat demand through waste heat recovery, including a Data Centre Energy Efficiency Package and targeted actions in the forthcoming Heating and Cooling Strategy.
With technology already available, the main obstacles are administrative, commercial, and organisational. How do we foster collaboration across sectors and levels of governance so that waste heat recovery becomes a mainstream solution?
This forum, co-hosted by EPH and the Energy Efficiency Movement (EEM), brings together industries, data centres, utilities, cities, investors, and solution providers to identify concrete ways forward.
The event will:
 	Create a shared understanding of the barriers slowing deployment.
 	Build trust and momentum across sectors.
 	Strengthen public–private partnerships.
 	Share business knowledge and solutions for robust heating and cooling strategies.
The goal: stronger alignment, clearer collaboration pathways, and renewed momentum to unlock Europe’s vast waste heat potential.

### Euroheat & Power Summit 2025
The Euroheat & Power Summit is Euroheat & Power’s high-level, not-to-be-missed policy event, offering key insights into EU legislation and emerging trends shaping Europe’s heating and cooling sector.
The coming year will be unlike any other, as it will see the launch of Europe’s long-awaited heating and cooling strategy. A unique opportunity to unleash the potential of district heating and cooling, a technological flagship made in Europe, on the cusp of a revolution driven by renewables, waste heat recovery and electrification.
The stakes are high: whether to guarantee safe and comfortable homes all year round, retain a European industrial base that is both sustainable and competitive, or break free from fossil imports, it all comes back to efficient energy system integration, and accelerating the uptake of local, clean heating and cooling solutions.
Building on the success of the Bring Heat Home campaign, this 2025 edition dives into the alpha and omega of a sound EU heating and cooling strategy, looking ahead to fully implement the Fitfor55’ package and achieve 90% of CO2 emissions reduction by 2040.

### How to accelerate the EU energy transition: the power of sufficiency
In 2021, the energy sufficiency concept gained significant international recognition when the IPCC defined it, highlighting its importance through demand reduction.
Now, this concept appears as an essential component of a sustainable energy transition that limits socio-environmental impacts:  we will explore why during our upcoming webinar.
Europe stands at a critical juncture in meeting its energy and climate goals, aiming to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 55% by 2030. Amid mounting pressures on resources, energy dependencies, and socio-economic challenges, to which extent strong sufficiency measures key to reducing energy demand and achieving carbon neutrality?
Discover the broader benefits of combining energy sufficiency and efficiency, from reducing dependencies to optimising resources and reducing socio-environmental damages. We will also share practical insights on how to integrate sufficiency levers in energy scenarios through the analysis of real-world applications from our EnerFuture scenario.
Join our expert led webinar on February 11th – 11:00 AM CET and be a part of an in-depth discourse about Energy Sufficiency in Europe. Here, we bring to you our insights through a global perspective.
Our team will go through:
 	How do strong sufficiency levers contribute to a carbon-neutral Europe?
 	What are the key levers to integrate energy sufficiency in Europe, and what are the associated energy-climate benefits?
 	How does the benchmark of existing scenarios integrate sufficiency levers, and how does it compare with the EnerFuture scenario for the EU?
 	How to apply the concept of sufficiency effectively using insights from our EnerFuture scenarios?
A live Q&A session will take place at the end of the session.

### Energy Management – A Strategic Investment?
A recent IEA publication explored the role of energy management in optimizing industrial energy demand, and how critical this is to keep the world on track with its energy efficiency targets.
Lee Jukes, Principal Consultant & Energy Auditor at SLR Consulting, picks out some of the key findings and shares insights on building the investment case for energy management.
Energy Management
Energy management is the first tool in the armoury of all successful energy efficiency strategies. Its focus is on metering, monitoring and tracking how energy is used – the intention being to identify opportunities to streamline energy use. Think reducing machinery standby energy usage between production cycles, energy used during downtime, optimising manufacturing processes. Going beyond this – energy management opens the door to the identification of broader energy efficiency opportunities, such as installing top class IE5 motors, investing in heat recovery or procuring a new steam system, to name a few. 
IEA Case for Energy Management 
In its report, the IEA provides the following insight on the attitude to energy management from industry:
“Although energy management is a proven approach to enhancing the competitiveness of companies and raising their productivity, implementation is not typically or widely viewed as a strategic investment in future”
This reads as somewhat of a paradox. Companies recognise the critical role of energy management in being competitive, but at the same time do not necessarily see it as a strategic lever. This leads to the question of why – do the energy savings justify the strategic importance tag?
The IEA shares with us that industries which adopt an energy management system (EMS), namely ISO 50001, typically achieve savings of 5% year-on-year. In other words, energy savings are there to stay, and replicable. Businesses just starting out on the EMS journey can however expect an average saving of 11% across the first three years. The general percentage savings shared by the IEA tally with our own on- the-ground experience - having worked with site engineers through to directors - to implement multi-year energy programmes.
Digging deeper into the numbers – we see that over ~25% of less energy-intensive industries (note, this does not mean low energy use) achieved greater than a 5% annual saving five or more years after implementation, compared to ~18% for energy-intensive industries.
This is expected given the greater focus on energy use within energy-intensive industries – for example, in the Aluminium and Zinc sectors energy can make up as much as 80% of total operational costs. However, it is clear from the insights that IEA provides that even in organisations that are already compelled to keep a watchful eye on energy use; developing and honing an energy management system leads to a positive impact on bottom lines. Even if it is just a couple of percent rather than then 5%-11% quoted above, this quickly adds up in energy hungry sectors which use energy in giga and terawatt-hr quantities.
Framing the Investment Case
With this in mind, how do we encourage more industries and stakeholders to go from recognising the virtues of energy management to treating it as something of strategic importance? Communication is certainly key – framing the investment case in a way that speaks the same language as those making the strategic decisions is critical. One approach is to pose the following question:
How much additional sales would the business need to generate that would equal the energy savings which are on offer?
The below example provides an illustration of how this could look for a £50m turnover organisation with more than 17 million Euros energy spend.
In the above example, an annual energy saving of 5% provides an equivalent business value of a 1.5% uplift in sales. Decision-makers have an idea of the financial investment required to achieve “x” sales uplift by leveraging the ratio of financial turnover to cost of sales/expenditure i.e. the typical return on investment. The investment cost for energy management processes, and energy efficiency opportunities that arise from it, should be assessed in the same way. As a rather substantial side note - it is absolutely critical that the investment case is thorough, engaging appropriate expertise to identify, quantify and sense-check energy saving opportunities.
Summary
The IEA figures tell us that industries with energy management systems save more energy and are more competitive than their peers – something that we can corroborate through our own experiences as consultants. However, energy management is not typically viewed as a strategic lever, which leaves a gap for industry to bridge. How can this be achieved? The answer to that is complex – but a tried and tested formula is to share best practice. Real world examples and case studies of energy success stories - be that through sector-specific fora, or energy efficiency-focused events such as those that the IEA and Energy Efficiency Movement are advocates for.
For any organisations not quite sure on where to start with developing an energy management system, see the tips below.
