Volvo CE’s Braås facility receives Climate Efficient Site certification
The Swedish Volvo CE Braås site, which produced the industry's first articulated haulers in 1966, has now received The Climate Efficient Site certification. This is the latest achievement for the facility, which has a strong history of leading in manufacturing sustainability. Braås was the first in the construction industry to achieve a carbon neutral operation back in 2014, leveraging renewable energy sources like a district heating system powered by 100 percent renewable biofuels and electricity from hydropower. In 2018, the site was declared landfill-free. Now, a new benchmark is being set.
