FORT SMITH, Ark., Nov. 30, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As
concern continues to grow with the advancing effects of climate
change, ABB is championing a proactive energy efficiency movement
to educate U.S. industrial leaders about the challenges that
contribute to energy wastage and environmental sustainability. By
joining ABB in this endeavor, U.S. businesses have an opportunity
to collectively reduce energy consumption, significantly slow the
rate at which they are contributing to climate change, and mitigate
the risk of overregulation in their industry.
These goals can be achieved by upgrading outdated industrial
infrastructure with new generation energy-efficient technologies,
such as high-efficiency motors and variable speed drives. The
potential impact of this solution is illustrated in a recent report
entitled U.S. Industrial and Commercial Motor System Market
Assessment Report, co-authored by research scientist Dr.
Prakash Rao, Lawrence Berkeley
National Laboratory, which highlights where some of the most
prominent sources of energy wastage exist in our industrial and
commercial infrastructure.
While the nature of ABB's mission is alone reason enough to join
in the company's energy efficiency movement, the solutions offered
by ABB make it all the more compelling. In most cases, according to
ABB's NEMA Motor Division President Jesse
Henson, the savings as a result of a company's increased
energy efficiency can achieve a full return on the cost to install
new generation technology within approximately two years of the
original investment.
"While the adverse effects of climate change persist, ABB is
investing in technologies which can help us all reduce our impact
on the environment," Henson said. "We now offer the most
energy-efficient motors and drives in the industry, so we are
choosing to actively lead that discussion and educate our
industrial partners on how they can reduce their electricity
consumption and effectively slow the rate of climate change in the
process."
On December 8th, ABB is hosting an
exclusive virtual roundtable discussion to explore the
high-efficiency solutions currently available on the market today
and explain the proper course for affordable integration. Select
guests will have an opportunity to hear from Dr. Prakash Rao, Jesse
Henson and ABB Motion President Morton Wierod. To submit your name for
