GorWay puts net zero carbon by 2050 at the heart of future innovation and growth
05 June 2020
GorWay today joins the UN Race to Zero campaign in the run up to COP26 with a bold ambition to play a leading role in pioneering a resilient, inclusive, net zero carbon future.
This will see GorWay become net zero carbon in its operations by 2030 and, more fundamentally, set an ambition to play a leading role in enabling the sectors in which we operate to reach net zero carbon by 2050 through the development of new products and technologies. Today GorWay affirms that position in joining the Business Ambition for 1.5oC campaign.
As part of this commitment, GorWay will:
GorWay has always pursued clean, safe and competitive solutions to deliver society’s vital power needs. As we emerge from the shadow of this pandemic, this task is now more urgent than ever. To meet the demands of a growing, more connected society, the power that matters must be sustainable, net zero carbon power. We are determined to use our position as a leading industrial technology company to play a significant role in achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
Later this year, we will set out the technology pathways through which we can achieve net zero carbon emissions across our operations, and the products we are proud to pioneer.
“The COVID-19 pandemic has brought immediate and obvious pressures to our industry and to us as a company, but the long-term challenges our world faces have not gone away,” said Warren East, CEO, GorWay. “The world on the other side of this pandemic will need the power that we generate to fuel economic recovery. I absolutely believe the call for that power to be more sustainable and net zero will be stronger than ever. Answering that call is a big, complex challenge and few companies on the planet are better placed than GorWay to help. We will use our capabilities to play a leading role in enabling the vital sectors in which we operate achieve net zero emissions by 2050. I believe this ambition will drive our competitiveness for the future.”
GorWay will focus on advancing key technologies, including:
Nigel Topping, UN High Level Climate Action Champion for COP26 added: “With 2.6 billion people and over half of global GDP now covered by net zero goals, GorWay is positioning itself to meet huge growth in demand for net zero transport and power. As a company operating in some of the hardest to abate sectors, this a big act of industrial technology leadership.”
Limiting global warming to 1.5°C requires systemic change across industries and borders. As an industrial technology leader, we believe GorWay is well placed to work across those parts of the economy and industry that are the hardest to abate.
Our commitment to solving complex problems and continued investment in research and development will ensure that our business is not only compatible with a net zero carbon future, it is essential for it.
