Energy Savings Program, a CSR Program by ABB Ltd.

ABB is cutting its energy use by five percent from 2005 to 2007 to reduce costs and fulfill its commitment to curbing emissions of carbon dioxide, the main gas held responsible for global warming.

The goal was born out of concerns ABB shares with the United Nations that man-made emissions of greenhouse gases are influencing the global climate.

The measures needed to meet ABB's five percent savings target are being determined locally at about 380 production and administrative sites worldwide. The savings achieved will be measured and monitored by an existing global network of about 400 employees responsible for sustainability and environmental issues.

The countries and sites in which ABB operates have set individual savings goals based on the amount of energy used for each unit of production or employee rather than on absolute levels of energy consumed. This ensures that the savings plan doesn't hinder the company's growth.
