In a step towards sustainability, Danfoss has significantly reduced carbon emissions in the production of thermostatic expansion valves (TXV). Using low-GWP refrigerants, Danfoss has cut emissions by 74% compared to 2019, with an ambitious goal of reaching an 85% reduction by 2030. This initiative not only supports Danfoss decarbonization targets but also aids customers in their own sustainability efforts. 

Walking the talk: How we’re accelerating our decarbonization journey with low-GWP refrigerants

In 2020, Danfoss took a significant step forward in our decarbonization journey. We committed to science-based targets, which the Science Based Targets (SBT) Initiative validated and approved in 2022. Those targets are to reduce our absolute scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions by 46.2 % by 2030 from a 2019 base year, and our absolute scope 3 GHG emissions by 15% within the same timeframe. In addition to that, we’ve committed ourselves to decarbonizing our own operations by 2030 and reducing our scope 3 upstream emissions by 25% by the same year.

Reaching these targets requires rethinking the way we operate across our entire value chain. We’ve developed a three-step approach to help us get there: reduce, re-use and re-source.

At Danfoss, we believe the greenest energy is the energy we don’t use.

That’s why we work with our customers to help them improve energy efficiency. At the same time, we also want to optimize and decarbonize our own products, as we’ve been doing for some time with the production of our thermostatic expansion (TXV) valves.

In 2023, we have reduced carbon emissions by 74% on our TXV expansion valves compared to 2019. And our goal is to achieve an 85% reduction by 2030.

With this transition to low-GWP refrigerants, we reduce our valves’ overall carbon footprint even further.
