SGB-SMIT presentation: The Journey towards Green Transformers
Conference 2022
The energy sector has a major role in the energy transition towards cleaner energy. With the increase of 6 % in 2021, which stands for 36.3 billion tonnes of global CO2 emissions related to energy, our sector needs to take responsibility (https://www.iea.org/news/global-co2-emissions-rebounded-to-their-highest-level-in-history-in-2021).

Our transformers are an important asset within this ecosystem, they need to fit in future demands. Within our value chain, we need to define how to make the transition towards green transformers, and understand what green transformers are, how to measure circularity and make it more concrete, what is required. We have calculated our impact and we have insight into supplier capabilities and can already offer more sustainable products or take back assets. What is important to understand is what investments everybody is prepared to make in order to make this journey happen. “Transforming together the future of energy.”
