We systematically increase energy efficiency
Energy management and energy policy play key roles at Viessmann. Thanks to our energy management system (EnMS), we’ve created an organizational structure that lets us systematically improve energy efficiency, energy use, and energy consumption.
Energy policy based on our values
Our energy policy is based on the Viessmann company principles and specifies that all employees observe the following operational principles.
Energy targets
This energy policy is the Viessmann Climate Solutions commitment to further reducing energy consumption and thus carbon emissions. It is based on strategic energy targets. Top management at the respective Group company sets these targets annually and keeps them in harmony with the overarching goals of the corporate group. Weather-adjusted or production-adjusted consumption data for the past period and the economic viability of the respective decisions from a sustainability standpoint are used as the basis for setting targets.
Energy performance
We continually strive to improve our energy performance. Compliance to legally defined requirements is our status quo here.
Sustainability
Energy-relevant decisions are made from a sustainability point of view. We use life cycle assessments wherever appropriate.
Employees
The cooperation of all employees is necessary for the implementation of the energy policy. The Viessmann Climate Solutions employees are fully informed, trained in energy-related issues, and integrated into the energy management program.
Resources
Our energy targets apply equally to all company business areas, all activities, and procedures. All resources and information necessary to implement the energy policy and to achieve the strategic and operational goals are provided by the Viessmann Climate Solutions executive management body.
Public
We regularly inform the public about the Viessmann Climate Solutions energy aspects, energy consumption, and energy management program.
Emissions
We define the Viessmann Climate Solutions emissions targets in relation to the energy goals. Emissions are always reduced by increasing energy efficiency and steadily increasing the share of renewable energies.
Energy monitoring
We continuously measure and monitor the energy consumption. We regularly record, review, and communicate key energy aspects.
Monitoring
Top management at the Viessmann Climate Solutions regularly monitors and assesses compliance with the energy policy.
