MELBOURNE, Australia, Dec. 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, ebm-papst Australia & New Zealand (A&NZ) announced the achievement of operational carbon neutrality for its Australian business operations, covering appropriate Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions for the calendar year 2023. This marks a significant milestone in the company's commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Partnering with Pangolin Associates, an independent third-party emissions consultant, ebm-papst A&NZ conducted a comprehensive carbon emissions assessment for all the three scopes. By measuring and publishing the carbon footprint of all its operations, ebm-papst A&NZ underscores its dedication to transparency and accountability. "Achieving carbon-neutral status reflects our commitment to a sustainable future," said Dr. Simon Bradwell, Managing Director of ebm-papst A&NZ. "Understanding our carbon footprint allows us to make informed, incremental changes to continually improve our environmental impact." ebm-papst A&NZ achieved carbon neutrality across the scopes: Scope 1 (direct emissions from owned or controlled sources), Scope 2 (indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity), and partially Scope 3 (other indirect emissions that occur in the upstream value chain by considering upstream transportation and manufacturing processes). Scientific measures to prevent and reduce emissions include transitioning to energy-efficient technologies, procuring 100% renewable energy, optimizing supply chain logistics, and engaging suppliers in sustainability practices. Klaus Wittmann, ebm-papst Group ESG Director, commented, "Achieving carbon neutrality in our subsidiary's operations is a significant milestone for us. It also sets a powerful example for the industry." To ensure carbon neutrality, ebm-papst A&NZ offsets all remaining and technically not avoidable total emissions annually. The offsets support the 210 MW Musi Hydro Power Plant Project in the Bengkulu region of Sumatra, Indonesia. Sumatra, known for its fertile soil and significant coffee production, faces challenges such as poor infrastructure and electricity access. This grid-connected run-of-river hydroelectricity plant, built on the upper banks of the Musi River near Sumatra's port city of Bengkulu, delivers over 765,000 MWh to Sumatra's grid each year, meeting the demands of over 700,000 Indonesians annually. ebm-papst A&NZ is committed to further reducing emissions and maintaining its carbon-neutral status through enhanced energy efficiency, renewable energy expansion, and sustainable practices. All claims regarding carbon neutrality and sustainability are backed by thorough assessments conducted by independent third-party consultants and accredited by Australian Government bodies. Carbon neutrality is substantiated with credible evidence, including detailed carbon footprint measurements in accordance with the Greenhouse Gas Protocol and the Corporate Value Chain Standard published by the Word Resource Institute and World Business Council for Sustainable Development by also considering the ISO 14064:2018 standard. The company transparently reports its emissions and reduction strategies, aligning with regulatory requirements and consumer protection laws.

Mowilex has earned its sixth consecutive CarbonNeutral® company certification through investments in innovative technologies and offset programs. The company's environmental commitments are helping Indonesia reach carbon reduction targets while also advancing United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. Mowilex became Indonesia's first certified carbon neutral manufacturer in 2019, and has since expanded its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives. JAKARTA, Indonesia, Dec. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- PT Mowilex Indonesia (Mowilex) has achieved its sixth consecutive CarbonNeutral® certification from Climate Impact Partners. Mowilex made history when it became Indonesia's first certified carbon neutral manufacturer in 2019. Since then, the company's continuous investments in green technologies and offsets that neutralize remaining emissions have lessened its environmental impact while supporting Indonesia's emission reduction goals. Innovation in Every Can. Mowilex Recycled paint has up to 40% premium recycled paint per 2.5-litre pail, lowering its carbon footprint by up to 60% versus traditional paint products. To complete its latest certification, Mowilex is supporting India's Lingasugur Wind Power Project. As part of a clean power portfolio that decreases fossil fuel use, the Lingasugur project advances four United Nations Sustainable Development Goals: Affordable and Clean Energy (goal 7), Decent Work and Economic Growth (goal 8), Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure (goal 9), and Climate Action (goal 13). Mowilex also reduced its carbon footprint and offset emissions across production and distribution. Solar panels being installed at the Cikande plant will reduce the company's dependence on non-renewable electricity sourced from the grid. After fostering improvement projects to lower fuel usage and transitioning from fuel-based equipment to electric, Mowilex recorded a 98% decrease in emissions from stationery sources compared to 2023. Renewable electricity from low- or zero-emissions sources powers the new equipment. Mowilex worked with ACT Commodities, a CDP gold-accredited organization that helps companies navigate scope 1, 2 and 3 decarbonization, to obtain related Renewable Energy Certificates. "Mowilex is honoured to receive a sixth consecutive CarbonNeutral company certification. We hold ourselves to high ethical and environmental standards, and this recognition proves that manufacturers can make a positive, lasting impact across the value chain," says Niko Safavi, CEO of PT Mowilex Indonesia.

The country has set an unconditional emission reduction target of 31.89% by 2030 and is committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2060. Estimates by the World Resources Institute (WRI) Indonesia suggest the industrial sector accounted for three-quarters of Indonesia's total emissions in 2019 alone. "Global change starts with local efforts, and Mowilex invests heavily in initiatives that benefit local communities. Reducing carbon emissions is just the start. We've also supported community development projects, funded habitat restoration, and completed the planting of 50,000 mangrove trees in celebration of the company's 50th anniversary," Safavi says.
