For us at Diehl Controls sustainability is of prime importance. Taking care of environmental aspects is therefore an essential part in our daily operations. We are convinced that sustainability is crucial for the long-term success of our business, and we are determined to constantly improve our environmental performance. In compliance with our corporate strategy, we aim to design products and solutions that support and enable a sustainable future. One example is our innovative inverter technology which enables us to realise unrivalled energy efficiencies in the field of heat pumps. In order to achieve our sustainability goals, we are implementing numerous measures in the areas of CO2 reduction and climate protection.
Exemplary measures:
- According to the requirements of the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, we determine our corporate carbon footprint and deduce operational reduction targets and specific energy efficiency measures.
- The calculation and reporting of our carbon footprint has been certified by an independent auditing company in accordance with GHG standards and ISO 14064.
- Based on the identified key focus areas we contribute to global efforts to combat climate change in alignment with the targets for CO2 reduction target of the Diehl group.
-
We are committed to reducing Scope 1 and 2 CO2 emissions by 38% by 2030 and 90% by 2045 compared to the base year 2021. The goal is to achieve carbon neutrality at our production sites by 2050.
- We strive to achieve energy efficiency in our processes and across our value chain. Therefore, we apply ECO design through our product development process to minimize the carbon footprint of our products over their complete lifecycle.
- By implementing sustainable practices, we reduce our energy consumption and decrease our impact on the environment.
- Energy procurement is a key factor in reducing CO2 emissions. Our goal is to gradually switch to renewable energies for the operation of our plants and production buildings. For example, our plant in Poland already sources 100% renewable electricity.
- Seeking continuously for possibilities of decarbonisation our dedication to sustainability extends beyond compliance with regulations and standards.
- We will continue to implement innovative solutions to minimize our environmental impact.
