The Global 100 list is based on a selection of 4,000 developed and emerging market companies, which are measured against key performance indicators such as revenues in relation to consumption of energy and water. This is the seventh time that Atlas Copco has appeared in the Global 100 rankings.
Atlas Copco sustainability initiatives, both globally and in the U.S., include:
- Boosting customer energy efficiency by at least 20 percent between 2010 and 2020 by continuously designing and developing more efficient products.
- An initiative between Atlas Copco Secoroc and the U.S. Department of Energy, as part of President Obama’s challenge to generate 80 percent of U.S. electricity from clean energy sources by 2035, to develop a down-the-hole (DTH) hammer design capable of low-cost, high-production drilling in the high temperatures of deep geothermal wells.
- Increasing employee diversity in both nationality and gender.
Atlas Copco will be exhibiting at the GEA Geothermal Energy Expo run in tandem with the 37th GRC Annual Meeting Sept. 29 - Oct. 2.
