Nexans Canada is on its way to decarbonization!

March 24, 2023

Our carbon reduction target by 2030 is set at 46.2%. Nexans Canada is already at 43%.

Upgrading building automation systems and heating controls, increasing the use of recycled materials, and installing capacitors to improve power factors of key machines are all ways we have reduced our carbon footprint.

In the near future, we have plans to reduce water consumption at our plants, build a 1MW solar farm, and install an uninterrupted power supply battery system.

“We are all committed to reducing our impact on climate change and contributing to carbon neutrality by 2030.” – Jerome Leroy, Vice President, Distribution and Usage North America
