Западные компании все больше не на словах, а на деле заботятся о соблюдении требований экологов, как и при производстве оборудования, так и при его конструировании.

Один из крупнейших мировых производителей оборудования - Nokia Siemens Networks сообщает о том, что сейчас уже 17% от всей энергии, потребляемой компанией, получается из возобновляемых источников, а к концу 2009 года доля этой энергии будут составлять 25%, а к концу 2010 года - 50%.

Компания NSN, кроме того, планирует снизить энергопотребление своих зданий на 6% до 2012 года.

Базовая станция Flexi Multiradio может обеспечить снижение энергопотребления вплоть до 40%. Потребление базовой станции Flexi Multiradio составляет 790 Вт, при этом станция способна одновременно обеспечивать покрытие GSM/EDGE и WCDMA/HSPA.

Nokia Siemens Networks on track with WWF Climate Savers commitments

Nokia Siemens Networks participates in WWF Climate Savers summit in Washington DC to discuss its achievements and targets to reduce carbon dioxide emissions

Nokia Siemens Networks, the first telecommunications network provider to join the WWF Climate Savers program, today announced that the company is on track to achieving its targets for reducing carbon dioxide emissions. The company presented its achievements at the Climate Savers Summit, organized by the global conservation organization WWF in Washington DC from March 25 to 27, 2009.

At the Summit, Nokia Siemens Networks and other WWF Climate Savers program members shared progress and innovations in their efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. WWF and Nokia Siemens Networks have jointly developed a climate action plan that includes measurable emission reduction targets and steps to meet its goals. The agreement involves negotiations between the WWF, Nokia Siemens Networks and independent technical experts who monitor and verify compliance with the agreement.

“I am delighted to say that Nokia Siemens Networks has progressed as planned with its Climate Savers commitments,” said Juha-Erkki Mntyniemi, Head of Environmental Affairs, Nokia Siemens Networks. “17 percent of our company’s energy requirements were drawn from renewable sources in 2008 and we are on course to increase this to 25 percent by the end of 2009. In addition, we recently launched the most energy efficient base station, the Flexi Multiradio, which in certain operation modes can help operators reduce energy consumption in their networks by up to 40 percent. The Flexi Multiradio Base Station consumes only 790W of power while simultaneously running GSM/EDGE and WCDMA/HSPA.”

Nokia Siemens Networks’ Climate Savers commitment is to: Improve the energy efficiency of their GSM/EDGE and WCDMA/HSPA base station products by up to 40 percent by 2012. Decrease the energy consumption of its buildings by 6 percent by 2012. Increase the use of renewable energy in company operations to 50 percent by the end of 2010.

The baseline for each of these commitments is 2007, and on completion, Nokia Siemens Networks’ initiatives will decrease the company’s CO2 footprint by approximately 2 million tons annually, compared to 2007.
