Altana Plans To Be CO2 Neutral By 2025 Specialty chemicals group Altana plans to reduce its CO2 impact from production and energy procurement worldwide to zero by 2025, starting with converting the entire power supply to renewable energy by the end of this year. Altana will compensate for the unavoidable use of natural gas until 2025 by financing equivalent climate protection projects in the regions where CO2 emis- sions are generated. The same applies to offsetting CO2 emissions arising from necessary business trips, company cars, and the transport of goods. “We want to leave our footprint on innovations, not on emissions,” said Martin Babilas, CEO of Altana. The company had already achieved the goal it set itself in 2007 of reducing CO2 emissions by 30 per- cent in relation to gross value added by 2020. In order to further reduce the emissions, Altana is relying on greater energy efficiency as well as heat and electricity generation at its worldwide sites.
