Using energy from renewable sources during the energy-intensive air separation process will reduce carbon dioxide emissions by up to 99% compared to conventional production processes, Linde says. The annual reduction in emissions will be more than 60,000 tons. This is the equivalent of the carbon footprint of 7225 households in a year.

- With new opportunities to integrate renewable energy into our manufacturing processes, we are one step closer to achieving our ambitious goal of reducing our greenhouse gas emissions intensity by 35% by 2028 - Marek Jaskiewicz, Linde Gaz Polska Market Development Director, responsible for the Linde Green project.
