Energy efficiency accounts for 40%
of the carbon dioxide emissions
so in order for us to reach the goals
of the Paris Agreement at net zero
we need to see a rapid transformation
of the world's energy system
and that's the foundation
of the partnership with Microsoft.
Digitalisation is crucial
if we want to achieve energy efficiency
and to secure energy efficiency,
you need efficient heat transfer,
and efficient heat transfer,
that is what Alfa Laval do.
The plate heat exchangers
that we install every year
account for a saving of 50 gigawatts.
Alfa Laval has the technologies
to enable energy efficiency savings,
but to really make this happen at scale,
we need the partnerships.
Alfa Laval has always been
a good client to Microsoft.
When two big companies start to cooperate,
you will actually have the power
to make a real difference.
In this partnership, we are utilizing
Microsoft's core strengths
to make sure that our heat exchangers
operate optimally
both to save energy
and reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
One example from this partnership
is the launch
of the thermal recognition camera
to make sure we can see
how the heat exchanger is performing.
We realised
that we could bring our AI services
onto the thermal imaging service.
Together we can bring
the process forward faster.
The digitalisation journey
will just continue.
We have worked in the data centre industry
for many years,
and the collaboration with Microsoft
is to ensure
that our products will perform
with maximum energy efficiency
throughout their life cycle.
The technologies are available,
they are affordable and ready to be used.
It's all about using the energy we produce
in the most efficient way,
right now, right here.
