Successful conservation of energy at Institut für Mikroelektronik Stuttgart

Institut für Mikroelektronik Stuttgart has made significant progress in energy conservation over the past year. Through a variety of measures, we were able to reduce our electricity consumption by 554,600 kWh, while district heating consumption was reduced by 467,000 kWh. Since 2018, we have also reduced district cooling consumption by an impressive 2,000,000 kWh.

Our success is based on adjustments we made in various places that have enabled us to reduce our energy consumption. In particular, the renewal of our central clean room control system and the optimization of our cooling water circulation have played an important role in this. In addition, a photo voltaic system was installed on our roof to generate clean energy and further reduce our environmental footprint.

In addition to these extensive measures, many smaller ones were also implemented. Further savings were achieved by replacing light bulbs and pumps. These continuous efforts have led to a significant decrease in our energy consumption.

Additional measures are planned for the future to further reduce our energy consumption. One focus will be the expansion of the photo voltaic system on the roof to produce even more renewable energy.

We are proud of the progress we have already made in energy conservation at IMS. With commitment and a focus on sustainable solutions, we will continue to expand our contribution to environmental protection.
