How green power is becoming even more sustainable
Think green – act responsibly on electrical connectivity solutions.
Generating renewable energy is supposed to make an important contribution to limiting climate change. But it is
not enough to focus solely on the production of "green electricity”. In this segment, too, it is important
to use resources sparingly and promote sustainability. Examples from WECO show how it can be done.
