Streamlining deployment Currently , OEMs and operators have to specify and order a large motor and drive separately . But now , the MV Titanium concept optimizes the entire electro-mechanical powertrain as one integrated unit . This is not simply combining existing components , but a new way of converting electricity into motion more efficiently .
Simplifying deployment further , setup and commissioning is all completed during factory testing before delivery , as a single integrated and pre-configured solution . This ensures it matches the customer ’ s process requirements and needs at their site .
Going beyond the established standards Heavy industries using large motors should lead the way by adopting energy efficient technologies . These motors are prime targets for implementing measures that both reduce emissions and offer a payback that accelerates as energy costs soar .
Legislation exists to guide the market — and although large motors are common , newly introduced regulations now also cover these motors . The International Electrotechnical Commission ( IEC ) has launched the first-ever global standard for measuring the energy efficiency of larger induction motors , creating a clear benchmark for their performance . However , regulations alone aren ’ t enough to spur all necessary innovations . With pressing environmental concerns , it ’ s vital for industry to proactively research , develop , and adopt low carbon technologies to push beyond basic compliance and lead the way toward greater sustainability .
The next step for industry At ABB we have set ambitious sustainability goals aligned with SBTi to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions . By implementing initiatives across various sectors , we have already achieved a 76 % reduction in GHG emissions compared to 2019 levels . To further drive progress , we are committed to achieving three key initiatives by 2030 : electrifying our fleet , sourcing 100 % renewable electricity , and improving energy efficiency . We want to set an example for industry as much as our products do .
In line with this agenda , we have spent the last two years developing our MV Titanium concept , building on 140 years of domain expertise in motors and more than 50 years of drives experience . Up to 2030 , existing technologies will drive most CO₂ emissions reductions , but by 2050 , nearly half will stem from innovations yet to come . This new concept helps us achieve those 2050 targets .
MV Titanium is the next step towards maximal productivity in a low carbon world . It puts ABB well on the road to support changing large , fixed speed motors to fully electrically controlled motors , one by one .
