Electrifying Heat to Boost Performance
SKF Group has fully electrified the heating and cooling systems at its Massa factory in Italy, replacing gas-fired boilers with reversible heat pumps. This transition, integrated with a digital monitoring system, has reduced operational energy demand and lowered costs, despite high electricity prices in Italy. The factory sources 100% of its electricity from renewable sources, utilizing a virtual power purchase agreement for a solar plant in Spain and Guarantees of Origin. This project is part of a broader SKF Group strategy that has seen similar electrification and decarbonization efforts across eleven other global factories.
