Sustainability Through Innovation
Advanced Energy is committed to minimizing our impact on the environment. We strive to reduce waste in our operations and conserve natural resources.

We enable sustainability through power conversion innovation. Every increase in power conversion efficiency reduces our customers’ power consumption and decreases their environmental impact and carbon emissions. By continuing to make our products and solutions more energy efficient, we help our customers reach their sustainability goal

Inventing Energy Efficient Products

Our dedicated R&D teams strive to improve power conversion efficiency, balanced with exceptional stability and nimble control and response. Every increase in power conversion efficiency reduces our customers’ power consumption and decreases their environmental impact and carbon emissions. Our products deliver industry-leading efficiencies up to 98%. Read more in our white paper.

Computing

Every 2% increase in server power supply efficiency results in 1.6% less electricity used (1.4M kWH saved per year*)

This is equivalent to**

Manufacturing

AE’s eVoS™ reduces power consumption in a NAND fab with 180 etchers by 3.6 MW – equivalent to the yearly consumption of  2,479 US HOUSEHOLDS***


AE's flagship RF power supplies enable "idle state" mode, which reduces power consumption by 50% / UNIT

***Calculations based on the US Energy Information Administration’s average annual household consumption of 10,632 kWh
Implementing Energy Efficient Operations

Advanced Energy makes continuous improvements to reduce our energy usage in our global factories. We track our greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions at several key manufacturing sites* pursuant to The Greenhouse Gas Protocol, and report publicly through CDP and various regulatory bodies. From 2014 to 2022, our factories in China and the Philippines reduced Scope 2 CO2 emissions by 23,941 metric tonnes, a 34.5% reduction from the base year.

Our Philippines factory is a three-time PEZA Hall of Fame Awardee for Outstanding Environmental Performance. By employing novel alternatives, the site reduces the need for thermal testing.

Reducing Waste

Advanced Energy strives to reduce waste and conserve natural resources. We continue to optimize our systems and implement new initiatives focusing on:

Actively Managing Waste

Our factories in Asia actively manage and minimize both non-hazardous1 and hazardous waste. Through our efforts to reduce, re-use, recycle and repurpose/refurbish, we maximize our waste diversion rate. In 2022, our waste diversion rate was 86%.

Recycling / Reusing Materials

Our factory packaging team provide recycle / reuse outgoing packaging design that minimizes packaging materials, uses recyclable resources available in the market and includes recyclable packaging labels per country requirement. We accommodate specific requirements per customer request. As a key supplier to Applied Materials, we are proud to support the company’s SuCCESS2030 recycling initiative aimed at creating a more sustainable supply chain.

Conserving Water

We strive to reduce wastewater produced by our operations. We implement water treatment programs in our factories in the Philippines and recycle wastewater in several factories in Asia.
