12 ADI | Engineering a More Sustainable Future World Economic Forum— Sustainable Lighthouse Network The World Economic Forum's Shaping the Future of Advanced Manufacturing and Value Chains platform has set up the Global Lighthouse Network, which recognizes top leaders in manufacturing as lighthouses. 7 The World Economic Forum's Global Lighthouse Network showcases real-world examples of how digital transformation strategies are accelerating the reduction of CO2 emissions in industry. 8 It is a community of manufacturers using advanced technologies to drive new innovations in smart manufacturing to increase productivity and sustainability. As of January 2023, the Global Lighthouse Network comprises 132 manufacturing sites worldwide, including 13 sustainability lighthouses. 8 Schneider Electric's Le Vaudreuil factory is one of the sustainability lighthouses at the forefront of digital transformation. 9 The Le Vaudreuil facility has demonstrated the impact of data-driven insights to catalyze more sustainable manufacturing by X Reducing power use by 25% X Reducing material waste by 17% X Reducing CO2 emissions by 25% Conclusion The path to net zero will create new opportunities for industrial manufacturing companies to embrace new technologies to accelerate lower carbon manufacturing. Increased industrial activity (almost half of which occurs in China and India) will double the number of deployed motors in use by 2040. 10 Therefore, the CO2 reduction impact and the business opportunity size for new higher efficiency motor driven systems will increase significantly. At Analog Devices, we are fully dedicated to driving automation toward a more sustainable and efficient future. Our advanced technologies and solutions are designed to support the next generation of manufacturing systems, focusing on improving every level of efficiency from precise motion control and seamless connectivity to enhanced insights and analytics at the edge.
