LM Wind Power has announced that it will produce zero waste blades by 2030. LM Wind Power’s vision of zero waste blades means the company aims to send no excess manufacturing materials and packaging to landfill and incineration without energy recovery by 2030.
The company will reuse, repurpose, recycle or recover all the excess materials from manufacturing of blades, giving up on landfilling and incineration as waste management solutions. It will also partner with its suppliers to prevent waste in blade manufacturing, which today accounts for nearly one third of LM Wind Power’s operational carbon footprint.
