This sustainability story is one of many that shows how Olin products, technologies, ideas, and people are having a positive impact on our world.
SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGE
Olin's Baltringen, Germany, site is key to the production of epoxy hardeners for the wind energy industry, among other key products.
The site looked to reduce its annual electric energy consumption while still delivering these essential chemistries.
OLIN'S SOLUTION
Site management and procurement teams worked together to make the site's energy consumption more sustainable.
A new electricity supply contract was negotiated for renewable hydropower energy, and solar panels were installed on the site's workshop.
DID YOU KNOW?
POSITIVE IMPACT
The Baltringen site is now operating with 100% renewable energy sources. o The actions taken by these teams eliminates 250 MT of CO2 annually.
Olin epoxy resin systems enable longer wind blades, making the production of wind energy more efficient.
