The biggest leverage that Festo currently has as a component supplier with regard to climate protection is the reduction of Scope 3 emissions – specifically when customers use the products sold (see diagram in Chapter 3.1). This requires specialists with the expertise to optimise the entire pneumatic system. Festo Energy Saving Services, a customised service programme in accordance with DIN EN ISO 11011 (Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audit), are based on this holistic approach. This serves to identify and best exploit compressed air savings potential at the customer’s premises, which also optimises their entire energy management system in accordance with DIN EN ISO 50001. Documented savings potential The focus is on the Festo Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audit, which is available around the globe and is carried out by our specialised auditors. In 2022, 412 projects were carried out worldwide with a calculated CO2 savings potential totalling 17,672 tonnes. This amount is comprised of the leakages determined by means of concrete leakage detection and the total potential savings estimated by the Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audit for the first time. Since 2012, we have been able to demonstrate CO2 savings of 68,140 tonnes in our customer projects. GRI 302-5 Festo Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audit With the audit, the customer can immediately detect weak points and know which measures will pay off for their compressed air system. Our auditors examine both the compressed air generation (1) and the compressed air preparation and quality (2), as well as the compressed air network (3). They also carry out exemplary leakage detection on selected pneumatic systems, investigate potential savings and check pneumatic efficiency (4). To round off the audit offer, a concept for a monitoring system can be created for the client as required (5). Finally, a detailed report is produced with precise documentation of the data and priority-weighted recommendations for action to optimise compressed air energy efficiency and its savings potential. The documentation also includes the CO2 emission values of the compressed air system that many companies require for inclusion in their sustainability report, for example in accordance with GRI or GHG, and that they use in their climate strategies. Festo sustainability review of pneumatics As part of the new ‘Sustainability Test of Pneumatics’, pneumatic applications on existing systems are subjected to a deep dive. In addition to the complete detection of leaks in a production plant, relevant pneumatic applications are examined for their energy efficiency and sustainability and specific improvement measures are proposed and implemented. For our customers, this almost always means significantly reduced compressed air and energy consumption, as well as increased system availability and a longer service life of the installed components, as they are better adapted to the respective operating conditions. The environment benefits not only from lower energy consumption, but also from the avoidance of unnecessary waste. Festo Energy Saving Services portal The web-based Festo Energy Saving Services portal, which was launched worldwide in 2021, and the associated app, form the basis for online documentation and tracking of the results of Festo Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audits. This digital solution is an important step towards faster implementation of compressed air energy efficiency measures and monitoring them in real time. The faster optimisation measures, such as the reduction of pressure drops or the elimination of located leaks, are initiated by the customer, the more CO2 emissions and compressed air costs can be saved in total.
