self-sufficiency in energy
In May 2018, the Austrian Ministry for Sustainability defined the strategy required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. However, the strategy is only achievable – it says – if citizens, entrepreneurs and business sectors can be brought on board and given the best possible support. Everyone can contribute to this – for the benefit of climate as well as independence. At the end of 2022, the responsible persons at schmidinger möbelbau consider themselves fortunate and confirmed that they have taken these goals seriously and implemented them completely. We are very grateful for the public support that has helped us to achieve this important investment package.
Since the end of 2021, schmidinger möbelbau has already been producing a predominant share of its daily electricity requirements on the company’s roof. The electricity not required from the around 100 PV modules is stored in batteries, for example to ” refuel” the two electric company vehicles in the evening. The entire heat supply is provided entirely by the company’s own wood waste. Since 2019, the entire production halls have been dedusted via an air filter system and the heat is fed back into the facilities. This not only protects our employees, but also the environment.
