Energy production and use are the largest man-made sources of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The operational, environmental, and financial impacts of energy are key issues for facility operations. Driving energy efficiency and promoting the use of renewable energy throughout facility operations is important for all factories to focus on.
As climate change emerges as the most severe human, environmental, and economic risk in the world, more stringent requirements and regulations may be imposed by governments. Facilities that reduce energy consumption and GHG emissions will also better prepare for regulatory demands or new requirements from brands. This may also create an economic advantage for your facility by reducing fossil fuel dependency and costs.
