Among the material featured in this unique document is information about how the latest Omron products have been designed to offer important environmental benefits, not just for Omron, but also for the end user.
Also provided are brief, but informative, case studies covering specific environmental improvements that Omron has implemented in its products, processes and systems.
Omron also has a number of initiatives to help its customers optimise their own energy performance, often based on national legislation, and always focusing on using technology in the most effective manner.
An example of these initiatives is a brochure produced by Omron in the UK, which shows how to maximise energy efficiency, and includes a foreword by Alan Aldridge, Executive Director of the Energy Systems Trade Association (ESTA).
The brochure, titled "Contributing to your energy strategy", also provides a clear explanation of the Climate Change Levy (CCL) and the Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme, which form part of the UK Government's carbon reduction programme.
ECAs are available on certain qualifying technologies, such as variable speed drives, and allow the full cost of the investment in the qualifying technology to be relieved, for tax purposes, against taxable income in the year of purchase. Request a free brochure from Omron Electronics ...
