Charging Towards Our Goals

At nVent, we are committed to a more sustainable future. Our customers include pioneers in green energy, e-mobility, energy storage and more. nVent solutions help make these innovations possible. We are helping to build a more sustainable and electrified world.

In addition to helping our customers drive sustainability, we are working to make our own operations more environmentally friendly. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) values are a key part of our business strategy. In 2021, we put these on a firm footing, with concrete commitments around people, products and the environment. That includes committing to reducing Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by half and drawing more than a quarter of our energy consumption from renewable sources by 2030.

Electromobility will be key to achieving those goals.

Supporting our people and protecting the planet

To achieve our environmental goals and cut our carbon footprint further the nVent facility in Straubenhardt, Germany have outlined an ambitious three-step plan:

  • First, we have already installed three charging stations, each with two charging points for our business cars, able to charge six cars simultaneously.
  • By the end of July 2023 we will have added four more stations with two charging points each, supporting simultaneous charging for another eight vehicles.
  • Finally, we are installing additional charging points for our employees and giving them access to lower electricity prices, because we want to support them in working to create a greener future.

To this purpose, we use on site renewable energy. We recently installed a photovoltaic solar energy system on the roof of our company building.

At nVent, we connect and protect a more sustainable and electrified world and support low-carbon solutions in collaboration with our customers and business partners. To find out more about our goals and our progress, see our ESG report.
