We're helping vessels to enhance their fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. We have introduced a first-of-its-kind feature called Optimal Speed Routing. Part of our Routing Services portfolio, it's the first solution on the market to advise operators of any changes they should make to the vessel's track or speed, to avoid heavy weather covering route optimization. The feature manages fuel and voyage costs by simultaneously optimizing the vessel's direction and speed using the latest available meteorological information and real-time inputs, such as daily vessel hire costs, fuel costs and user-defined vessel performance models.

We are driving competitiveness through industrial efficiency We are thrilled to have participated in the 2024 European Sustainable Energy Week “Net-zero energy solutions for a competitive Europe.” Our Motion Services Division President Erich Labuda shared his insights and spoke about our expertise on the panel “Driving competitiveness through industrial efficiency” alongside Kadri Simson, EU Energy Commissioner, Brian Motherway, Head of Energy Efficiency and Inclusive Transitions – International Energy Agency (IEA) and Paula Pinho, Director for Just Transition, Consumers, Energy Security, Efficiency and Innovation - European Commission. Key takeaways from the panel discussion: 1. Solutions are available today, not tomorrow: 45% of the worlds electricity is consumed by motors, and by replacing them, we reduce electricity consumption by 10% globally. We are not talking about technology innovation, but technology application. 2. Power in green public procurement: To make the EU’s “energy efficiency first” principle a reality, we need more guidance from the European Commission on how to make this happen in the public procurement space. 3. Energy efficiency = competitive advantage for business: Energy efficiency should be part of the core KPIs for companies because it drives the transformation of business models and mindsets, as well as relieves the stress from our grids that need to keep up with the electrification demand. The discussion was moderated by Ramya Krishnaswamy - World Economic Forum and other co-panelists included Monica Frassoni, Volker Ratzmann and Marco Baresi. #energyefficiency #ABBenergyefficiency #EUSEW2024

When the going gets tough, a purpose keeps us going!  Last week, the stunning backdrop of Interlaken set the stage for an extraordinary gathering at the Swiss Economic Forum! Our own Nora Teuwsen, Country Holding Officer at ABB Switzerland, was present at the event along with other industry leaders, innovators, and visionaries, which included a dynamic exchange of ideas related to this year’s motto “When the going gets tough”.  How do we navigate our way out of a crisis? What force drives us to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges and defy adversity? The participants of the ABB Breakout Session came up with a wide variety of answers to this question, but they all had one thing in common: purpose as a driving force.    Thank you to Alexandra Karle, Managing Director of Amnesty International Switzerland, Pascal Bieri, Co-Founder and member of the management of Planted, Daniel Aufdenblatten, CEO and Pilot of Air Zermatt AG and Martina Hingis for sharing their valuable insights – and to Jonas Projer for expertly moderating the panel!    #SEF24 #SEF #collaboration #partnership #purpose 

What changes within ABB are you most proud of on the topic of inclusion? How do we ensure open communication? These two questions are just some touched on by Morten Wierod, Head of Electrification and LGBTQ+ sponsor and Natalia Shehadeh, Head of Integrity. In a conversation with Luca Condosta, Ph.D. (he/him) Condosta our VP HR and LGBTQ+ Program Lead, they highlighted not just the ‘why’ of LGBTQ+ inclusion but ‘how’ we are achieving this.

Quick access to documents on electrical equipment and immersive guides reduces the time needed for troubleshooting and maintenance and contributes to our customers’ productivity.    Read the current issue of ABB Review to find out more about our AR capabilities! https://lnkd.in/eG6ai8ie #innovation #ABBinnovation #augmentedreality #ABBReview

Closing the loop with wastewater treatment - a second life for water  As we wrap up our deep dive into the water cycle, we're turning our attention to one last critical aspect: wastewater treatment. This process plays a vital role in maintaining environmental balance by removing contaminants from wastewater and sewage and reducing the human impact and pressure on supplies. However, the energy required for this process can be substantial. This is where ABB comes in. We combine automation, instrumentation and advanced digital capabilities to streamline process operations. It’s all about driving a circular water economy while minimizing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

Helping our customers with efficient water management technologies Our planet is approximately 70% water, but only 3% is freshwater. Efficient water management is therefore essential in reducing waste, using water wisely, preventing unnecessary loss and ensuring long-term sustainability. From Naousa, Greece to Varanasi, India, we’re working with customers to conserve water and save energy. Our colleague Rajesh Jha also highlights water positivity initiatives in India.
