 | Dear Franklin Peraza,
Welcome to the August issue of Danfoss’ climate and energy newsletter, featuring stories on solutions that help save energy and costs, and reduce CO2 emissions. As a global leader within energy-efficient solutions, we want to share our ideas and continuously develop them through interaction with our stakeholders. Please add your comments on the articles. | | Producer of calcium carbonate filler cuts down energy costs by 15,800 Euros | | | Slovenian producer of calcium carbonate fillers, granulated products, and sands reduces energy costs by more than 15,800 Euros per year with Danfoss VLT® solutions. The products from the company are found almost everywhere, for example in paper, rubber, plasters, construction materials and glass making. | |  | | Reducing tenants’ energy costs with two-pipe system (animation) | | | Less complaints, lower maintenance costs, more indoor comfort and lower energy bills for tenants. These are some of the benefits of a two-pipe heating system installed in residential buildings. In this animation you can see how automatic balancing valves can improve the performance of a heating system. | |  | | Danfoss celebrates 80 years of global innovation | | | On September 1, it will be 80 years since Mads Clausen founded Danfoss in his parent's farmhouse in Nordborg, Denmark. Since then, the business has grown from a solo enterprise into one of the world's leading suppliers of energy-efficient and innovative solutions, employing a staff of 23,000 and with sales in more than 100 countries. Gaining an early footing on emerging markets and a clear focus on innovative products for its customers is part of the reason for this. | |  | | Did you get the chance to read this? | | UK barn owners reap benefits of switching to heat pumps

| |  | | Opinion: Rethink supermarket energy demand with integrated systems | | | Torben Funder-Kristensen, Head of Public & Industry Affairs, Danfoss Refrigeration and A/C Controls shares his thoughts on integrated systems: “Heat recovery has been shown to be possible if we begin to integrate heating and cooling systems in supermarkets – and we could have an even higher degree of integration using smart thermal and electrical grids. It does, nevertheless, require the full support of policy-makers as well as the industry.” | |  | | |
