The efficient use of resources and the reduction of environmental pollution, e.g. CO2 emissions, are among the greatest challenges of our time. Environmental protection, energy efficiency and optimised resource usage are also important topics when it comes to profitable and sustainable production operations. Siemens AG has made it their goal that their business operations should be climate-neutral by 2030. To achieve this goal, Siemens has launched the Energy Efficiency Program (EEP). The EEP identifies potential savings specific to buildings and production and is goal-oriented in implementing individual measures. Under EEP2, the continuation of the EEP programme, 100 million Euros will be made available across the group for the implementation of efficiency measures with the aim of reducing CO2 emissions by 80,000 t per year from 2015 to 2020.
