Actions speak louder than words. Delivering on the Glasgow Climate Pact agreed at COP26, and supporting the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, requires all of us to act, and act now with urgency.   For Siemens Gamesa, protecting the planet for future generations is not just a job but a passion. Tackling climate change requires us to make dramatic changes, and to do this we need to act today, not tomorrow. Our generation will be judged on how we respond to the climate crisis and on the actions we take to keep global temperature rises this century to between 1.5 and 2°C. The stakes are high, and by achieving this we can safeguard the future for generations to come. Collectively, we need to act with urgency.

Following on our #onshore2netzero campaign we focused on Vietnam, which has spearheaded strong growth in wind energy over recent years and stands to grow in both on, near and offshore for many more to come. The campaign marks Siemens Gamesa’s Onshore business unit reaching the key milestone of 100GW of energy installed, while acknowledging that much more capacity will be required globally in the years ahead for the world to meet its net zero targets.

Women represent more than half Africa’s combined population, but only generates 1/3 of the continent’s collective GDP. This reinforces and fuels the urge to involve more women to contribute to the continent’s long-term economic growth and health by providing them access to education, access to financial services, and new digital technologies, which will unlock many growth and development opportunities for Africa.

As Siemens Gamesa’s Onshore business surpassed the 100GW milestone earlier this year we are taking a look at three key projects in this short #onshore2netzero campaign that in recent times have helped the company reach this important marker. The campaign aims to acknowledge this important marker while acknowledging that much more capacity will be required globally in the years ahead for the world to meet its net zero targets. The projects we will look at aim to show some of the people, technology and innovation that have helped drive wind energy in different communities across the world.

A burning building. This analogy was used by the American psychanalyst Herbert Freudenberger to introduce the term burn-out in 1974. A total lack of energy, a decline in your sense of belonging and a plummeting self-esteem are one of the most common symptoms. At Siemens Gamesa, we acknowledge the effects of burnout and recognize our role to help employees not fall prey to it. Last year we launched the Perceived Stress Survey (PSS) and when we saw the high levels of stress within our workforce, we knew we had to course correct. That’s why we have dedicated many more efforts towards assessing stress levels, making employees aware and then providing the necessary tools to successfully manage stress as a result of work.

The time to accelerate net zero action plans is now. In the Glasgow Climate Pact agreed at COP26, world leaders committed to reducing carbon emissions to prevent global temperatures exceeding 1.5 degrees celsius above pre-industrial levels by the end of this century. While it is a cause for optimism that governments, organizations, industries, and individuals are setting targets to tackle climate change, decisive words must be met with committed action if the world is to stem the impending climate crisis.

In 2015, one of Siemens Gamesa’s long-standing partners based in Engesvang, Denmark set up a heating facility that runs on end of lifecycle wood packaging. As one of the core supplier of wood pallets to Siemens Gamesa, the company, STEA, drives sustainability in all its operations. STEA is aiming to reuse and recycle wooden pallets to extent their lifetime to a maximum. When the pallets can no longer be recycled and reused by Siemens Gamesa, STEA converts the scrap wood to biofuel that provides heating to nearly 800 households in the neighboring village. Now, that's what we call a sustainable and innovative partnership.
