Energy and climate solutions leader Munters has reportedly signed a turnkey project agreement entailing the construction of a laboratory in Scandinavia. As per sources, the company plans to design and build a lithium battery laboratory in the Scandinavian region, strengthening its position as a major supplier to lithium battery producers.

Munters’ step ahead may be an action initiated in favor of climate change that is increasing the demand for lithium batteries the world over.

Munters’ ability to build the unit and its competence to ensure appropriate execution of the construction was a major requirement by the client. As per terms and conditions, the company will deliver the project over the forthcoming six months. The project valuation adds up to around MSEK 83.5.

Klas Forsström, President and Chief Executive Officer, Munters, has been quoted to state that with increasing focus being given on minimizing carbon emissions, there’s a strong megatrend of sustainability in the market. This will certainly continue to drive the demand for lithium batteries worldwide, he says. Furthermore, Forsström adds that since Munters boasts of excellent solutions for lithium battery suppliers, it will continue to play a vital role in the roll-out of high performance battery facilities.

As far as climate solutions pertaining to the production of lithium batteries for the automobile market are concerned, Munters seems to be a clear winner. The company provides a better air environment for this sensitive process and also ensures reduced carbon emissions and lower energy costs.

Mars embarks on new initiative to reduce GHG emissions across value chain

By Patrick Miller |
Mars, Incorporated, has declared that it has a new mission in mind. The company has strengthened its commitment to accomplish a state of net zero GHG emissions spanning its overall value chain, by the year 2050. Mars’ mission aligns with the prestigious Paris Agreement, one of the most ambitious climate change action plans, that aims to limit global temperature rises up until 1.5 °C. Grant F. Reid, Chief Executive Officer, Mars, has some real-time insights into the present climate change situation. He has been quoted to state that faster initiatives must be taken at this point of time, since climate change is already well on its way to affecting people and to eliminate this threat, net zero targets must be implemented seamlessly, across whole distribution networks and the results must be depicted soon enough, instead of having to waiting for ages.
