Reducing your carbon footprint is not only the right thing to do, it's also good for business
Compressed air represents a significant part of the total energy costs of European industrial manufacturers, typically 10% and up to 40% in some plants.2) This equates to more than 10TWh of electricity per year and some 4.3 million tons of CO2.
Energy costs account for 80% of the total cost of ownership of a compressor, so investing in environmentally friendly machines and optimizing existing systems to use less energy can significantly reduce the cost of producing compressed air. and the carbon footprint of a company.
Although environmentally friendly compressors are all about efficiency, choosing the right model for your compressed air needs is still vital.
What air flow do you need and for what applications?
Will the compressor run constantly or intermittently? So, for example, will the demand for compressed air fluctuate due to shift work or seasonal demand?
How important is air quality?
These factors should always be key considerations when specifying a compressed air system.
