Latin America. In Latin America, several countries continue to implement industries in buildings and spaces that have a high consumption of electricity, so processes must be established within them that make them more energy efficient.
Within the constant search to preserve the natural resources of the planet, every step that is advanced is valuable, hence the importance of integrating into social responsibility efforts to achieve environmental care and that companies direct their efforts towards efficiency.
According to projections from the report 'The Network of the Future' of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), electricity consumption would increase 70% by 2030 in Latin America, largely because the industries that are implemented in the countries have a high consumption of this supply. In the case of Colombia, electricity demand would grow 2.9% annually.
This is how Schneider Electric, a leader in digital transformation of energy management and automation, is no stranger to the importance of measuring energy efficiency in processes, taking into account the current situation of the planet. For this reason the company has different solutions and services "Green", which are part of the philosophy of energy efficiency and care for the environment.
In this sense, the company developed the new energy-efficient contactor called 'TeSys D Green'. This new product, considered the best in the market, strengthens the portfolio of solutions of the TeSys family, recognized worldwide for having high performance features in safety, reliability and connectivity of the market, gaining relevance in the current circumstances of the planet.
For this reason, Schneider Electric works so that small evolutions generate great savings. The new contactor comes equipped with an innovative electronic coil, which achieves savings of up to 80% in energy. This innovation achieves immediate results of reducing energy consumption in the processes and a very fast and sustainable return on investment over time.
Additionally, it has the "Green Premium™ EcoLabel" label, which is an endorsement in the implementation of the environmental strategy of the processes in an efficient and safe way. With "Green Premium", customers are confirmed that the product was designed and manufactured responsibly and in compliance with the strictest standards.
'TeSys D Green' obtained the "Green Premium™ EcoLabel" by managing to meet the following factors:
- • RoHs compliance: requires the elimination of harmful chemicals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, PBB, hexavalent chromium and PBDEs, among others.
- • REACH evaluation: according to the European Union registry, we guarantee the replacement of substances categorized as SVHC (substances of very high concern).
- • PEP (Product Environmental Profile): Provides detailed information on the use of raw material, the ability to be recycled and the environmental impact it generates during the entire life cycle of the product.
- • EoLi (End of Life Instructions) available: guide to removing or reusing parts of equipment for other purposes.
