Description
RI Research Instruments is a supplier to particle accelerator projects all over the world. We build the research instruments needed for a sustainable world and we also build an ever more sustainable company.
Our actions and ambitions are laid out in our sustainability report. They strive for reduction of our CO2 footprint and contributions to the UNs Sustainable Development Goals (SDG).
In this presentation we focus on the dialog needed between the operators of particle accelerators (customers) and the companies like RI delivering to them (suppliers). Collectively we need to find ways to report sustainability efforts, include sustainability in the design of particle accelerators and incentivize such efforts when awarding contracts. We also need to find ways how savings in operations cost (lower electricity consumption etc.) can be balanced against higher investment cost.
We will present our recent activities, such as investment in brand new buildings with high energy efficiency and state-of-the art handling of chemicals, transition to electrical cars and others.
