<strong>Sustainability</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2023</strong><br />
Energy consumption & emissions<br />
Impact<br />
The use of renewable energy sources and<br />
the implementation of energy-efficient measures<br />
enabled ENGEL to successfully reduce its own<br />
energy consumption along with the resultant<br />
emissions.<br />
A far bigger part of the emissions is, however,<br />
caused along the downstream value chain,<br />
i.e. by our customers’ use of the machines. By<br />
developing energy-efficient machines for its customers,<br />
ENGEL enables them to significantly<br />
reduce their own energy consumption.<br />
ENGEL Austria’s current emissions are broken<br />
down as follows:<br />
• With more than 80 percent, the majority of all<br />
emissions are caused along the downstream<br />
supply chain, i.e. when the machines are<br />
used by our customers. This chapter will examine<br />
these emissions in further detail.<br />
• Another approximately 14 percent of emissions<br />
are generated along the supply chain of the<br />
components used, which will be the subject<br />
of the next chapter.<br />
• The remainder is attributable to other emissions,<br />
including those caused within ENGEL’s<br />
own production. Even though their share is<br />
very small, they will still be discussed in this<br />
chapter. This is because ENGEL accepts its<br />
own responsibility.<br />
