This achievement leads to a further improvement in electricity consumption.
The energy consumption of Oerlikon Fineparts is mainly related to production activities and, in addition, to heating, air conditioning and lighting of the plants. Starting from 2023, the plants of AMOM (Badia al Pino) and DMC (Scarperia e San Piero a Sieve) also purchase only certified electricity produced from renewable sources. For the site of CMH (Poggio a Caiano) the supply from renewable sources amounts to 80%.
In this way, in accordance with the GHG Protocol, indirect emissions due to the use of electricity (Scope 2) have been further reduced. For further information click here.
In addition to this achievement, various actions and initiatives are implemented within the various locations with the aim of reducing energy consumption, such as:
- Gradual replacement of conventional lighting systems with LED lamps in all plants;
- Energy audits according to UNI CEI EN ISO 50001:2018: with energy improvement plans in all sites.
