What are SDGs?

The SDGs, or Sustainable Development Goals, are a system created in 2015 by the United Nations to track progress towards large international goals, such as eradicating poverty and ensuring quality education for all. The sustainable development goals that best align with what we do here at Borrum Energy Solutions are: 7 affordable and clean energy, 11 sustainable cities and communities, and lastly 13 climate action. Now, let's go into more detail about how what we do here aligns with those goals.

Goal 7, clean and affordable energy, is about everyone having access to energy that is not only a reasonable price but also comes from sustainable sources and is reliable. Borrum’s Annora turbines fulfill both conditions. Not only are they financially a good investment, but they are also very beneficial for the environment, relying on a sustainable source of energy, wind, and breaking even on carbon emissions after only three years of use.

Goal 11, sustainable cities and communities is about making the areas we live in inclusive, safe, resilient and operate in a sustainable fashion from waste collection to energy generation. Wind turbines are an incredibly sustainable form of energy generation. They harvest power from wind, which will never run out, and while doing so, they generate absolutely no air or water pollution. Wind energy will be a crucial component of the energy generation for any sustainable community in the future.

Goal 13, climate action, covers the urgent actions needed to fight against climate change and its impacts. 2024 was the hottest year on record at 1.55 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels. Based on current policies, we are on track for 3.1 degrees of global warming. Borrum Energy Solutions' Annora wind turbines do an excellent job at combating climate change. The single biggest portion of greenhouse gas emissions come from power production at 26% by utilizing a sustainable alternative such as wind power, this percentage can be greatly reduced by limiting the impacts that climate change will have.  

Borrum Energy Solutions is committed to a future where clean and affordable energy is available to all, communities are built in a sustainable fashion, and climate change is limited as much as possible. Through the Annora wind turbines, we are helping to achieve all these objectives.
