Mission to zero

We have all the technology we need to get rid of building emissions already, today. Smart energy and asset management can make any building energy-efficient and carbon-neutral. Mission to Zero is a program, a scalable blueprint of smart building solutions combined with on-site renewable energy generation and storage. One goal is to generate enough clean energy on site to power operations with zero emissions.

The program began as a pilot in 2019 with our plant in Lüdenscheid, Germany. This launched the Mission to Zero concept at a grass roots level 'knitting together' a range of products across ABB, allowing ABB to start to ‘walk-the-talk’ on sustainability.

What we do at our own sites (and what our customers and partners do too) is important because buildings consume more than 30 per cent of the world’s energy and contribute almost 40 per cent of global carbon emissions.

ABB has technologies such as intelligent energy distribution, building automation, HVAC control, battery solutions, motors and switches that can help to address this.
