Processes & Green Technology
Climate change is a global issue. Our energy needs are growing. While the world’s population has quadrupled, its energy consumption has increased twentyfold. The Horizon 2020 programme sets out ambitious energy targets to deal with climate change.
20% of energy to come from renewable sources
20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions
20% increase in energy efficiency
In this context, we need to carefully review:
- Our energy production methods – increasing the share of clean renewable energy and move towards energy mix decarbonisation
- Our way of managing energy supply by modernising and developing smarter networks able to incorporate new production methods
- Our consumption habits by maximising the energy efficiency of our consumer goods and minimising polluting emissions
Astek is involved in improving energy efficiency so we treat our planet more respectfully
Smart Grids
We work on equipping smart buildings, deploying smart meters and integrating electric vehicle charging points into the network to encourage more renewable energies to be used in energy production so we can move towards a better energy mix.
Eco-friendly motoring
Our priorities are hybridisation, fully electric vehicles, pollution control systems and optimised fuel consumption. In line with market realities, vehicles need to keep up with the evolution of urban mobility and the needs of manufacturers who are looking for the best balance of autonomy, cost and recharge time.
