ollution has costs. It is estimated that the cost corresponds to around 2-3% of Europe’s GDP, approximately between 277 and 433 billion annually.
In the report Considering the costs of industrial pollution, the European Environment Agency collected data on emissions and pollutant transfers from more than 11,500 sites across Europe. Reducing pollution costs would not only benefit the environment but also the European economy.
Over the years, European industries have adapted, making significant strides in reducing their impact on the climate situation. However, when looking at the impact of industrial pollution, the situation remains alarming.
In Italy, there are 13 of the 200 most polluted sites, while the rest are distributed across Germany, the UK, Spain, and Poland. Some of these issues are linked to outdated industrial plants that are not mindful of sustainability.
Modernizing and converting plants also brings advantages in terms of economic development, allowing for significant savings in costs related to pollution, energy management, and efficiency.
It is precisely by looking toward this type of future that we at Ciesse operate, focusing on the creation of energy plants that support the acquisition of energy from renewable sources. In these systems, the power of nature is used to produce clean energy without harming or polluting the environment. We provide solutions that focus on solar thermal, photovoltaics, and wind energy. Thanks to the design of biomass and biogas systems, powered by fuels and organic waste, it is possible to transform waste— even industrial waste— into a new source of energy. Heat is not wasted, and intelligent systems, such as our Smart Grid, are used to distribute energy evenly across all connected plants in a structure.
Let’s talk about it together and discover how we can optimize your consumption and help you pollute less.
