In an interview by CNBC with Brandon Spencer, President ABB Motion, discusses the company's focus on energy efficiency and the opportunities arising from the global energy transition. 45% of the world’s electricity is converted into motion by electric motors and demand of electric motion is expected to double by 2040. At #ABB, we are on a mission to help industries not just run, but #Outrun - leaner and cleaner. ▶️ Watch the interview now! #EngineeredToOutrun #CNBC #EnergyEfficiency #Energy #EnergyTransition

Partnering with Aker Solutions for a major UK floating offshore wind project! We’re proud to collaborate with Aker Solutions on the Green Volt project, led by Vårgrønn and Flotation Energy. Set to become Europe’s first commercial-scale floating offshore wind farm, Green Volt will be located 80km off the coast of Peterhead, Scotland. When operational in 2029, the project will supply 1.5 TWh of renewable energy annually—enough to power 555,000 homes—while contributing to the UK and Scotland’s ambitious net-zero targets. As part of the front-end engineering and design (FEED) phase, we will work on the complete electrical study for the facility, including system design and high voltage equipment. We will lead the electrical infrastructure development, including integrated automation and telecommunications systems for the offshore platform and onshore substation. https://lnkd.in/eV_BFtgu Photo credit: Flotation Energy & Vårgrønn
