SUSTAINABLE MILESTONES AT THE NEWLY BUILT “WILOPARK” HEADQUARTERS IN DORTMUND
德國多特蒙德新建的威樂園區(WILOPARK)總部之永續里程碑
The Wilo Group is celebrating three sustainable milestones this week: The successful completion of the TüV certification as a “climate-neutral company in Dortmund”, the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification award from the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) and the Gold certification of the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB), both for the "Pioneer Cube" administration office building.
威樂集團本週將慶祝三個永續發展里程碑，1.成功完成德國技術監督協會(TuV)認證，成為"多特蒙德氣候中立公司"2.美國綠色建築委員會(USGBC)頒發的能源與環境設計(LEED)金牌認證獎，3.和德國永續建築委員會(DGNB)的金牌認證，均設立在"先鋒魔方"行政辦公大樓。
“We are delighted to receive these certifications, because for the Wilo Group, climate protection is not just part of the business model, but has always been an integral part of our DNA. We feel strongly that companies have an obligation to take on corporate political responsibility and to actively commit themselves to more sustainability and climate protection,” said Oliver Hermes, President and CEO of the Wilo Group.
威樂總裁CEO奧利佛.荷米斯說道:我們很高興獲得這些認證，因為對於威樂集團來說，氣候保護不只是作為企業模式的一部分，並且是我們DNA中不可或缺的一環。我們強烈認為，公司有義務承擔更多的企業政治責任，並積極致力於更多的永續發展及氣候保護。
Based on the company’s own “Ambition 2025”, Wilo has developed a holistic sustainability strategy that takes all stakeholders into account and is implemented across the whole Wilo-World.
基於公司自己的"2025志向"威樂制定了全面的永續發展戰略，將所有的利害關係者考慮在內，並在整個威樂世界中實現。
“We have set ourselves the goal of producing climate-neutrally at all of our main production sites by 2025. What a great success to have already achieved this goal at the Dortmund location,” explains Georg Weber, Executive Board Member and CTO of the Wilo Group.
我們為自己設立在2025年達到在主要的製造基地實現氣候中和生產的目標。威樂集團總裁CEO威利佛.荷米斯解釋說:在多特蒙德工廠實現這一目標是多麼巨大的成功。

The TüV certification for climate neutrality is based on the balancing of the so-called Scope 1 and 2 emissions. Among others, Scope 1 includes direct CO2 emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels such as natural gas and heating oil. Scope 2, in turn, includes indirect CO2 emissions, e.g. from purchasing electricity. Wilo has been using green electricity for many years already. In addition, the photovoltaic system on the roof of the new Smart Factory contributes to the expansion of renewable energies. The remaining CO2 emissions of around 2,900t are compensated for by funding a Gold standard certified well project in Malawi.
TuV氣候中和認證是基於所謂的範圍1和範圍2的排放平衡。其中，範圍1包括化石燃料(如:天然氣和燃料油)直接燃燒產生的二氧化碳排放。反之，範圍2包括間接二氧化碳排放，例如:從購買電力中取得。威樂多年以來一直都使用綠電。此外，新的智慧工廠屋頂上的光電系統有助於拓展再生能源。剩餘的2900噸二氧化碳排放量透過馬拉威的黃金標準認證項目得到補償。
In the course of awarding the LEED Gold certification, the U.S. Green Building Council rated the Wilo energy concept as particularly positive and highlighted how its annual energy consumption had successfully fallen 53 % below the consumption of the LEED reference buildings. In addition, the use of environmentally friendly and low-emission building materials was praised, which ensures the health of the building occupants through the guaranteed indoor air quality.
在被授予LEED金牌認證的過程中，美國綠色建築委員會將威樂能源概念評比為特別積極，並強調其年度能源耗損相對LEED參考建築能耗節省了53%。另外，環保，低排放的建築材料受到好評，通過室內空氣質量保證來確保居住在大樓裡的人的健康。
The DGNB also endorses the efficient energy concept of the Wilopark administration office building by awarding its DGNB Gold certification. “It was one of Wilo’s important concerns to develop the Wilopark in a particularly sustainable way. The high standards we set for our highly efficient pump systems are also set for our buildings. This should not only be a declaration of intent, but shall be visibly implemented”, emphasises Georg Weber.
格奧爾格.韋伯強調:DGNB通過授予金牌認證獎章來認可威樂園區行政辦公大樓的高效節能。以特別永續的方式來開發威樂園區是威樂集團重要的關注項目之一。我們為高效泵浦系統所設定的高標準同樣適用於我們自己的建築。這不僅僅是份意向聲明，而是顯而易見的實施中。
“By receiving the DGNB Gold certification, Wilo is demonstrably showing that the company meets high requirements for holistic sustainability quality in its new building. After all, the DGNB system is considered the most advanced and ambitious of the various green building labels worldwide”, says Johannes Kreißig, Director of the DGNB Executive Board.
DGNB執行委員會主任Johannes說道:"通過獲得DGNB金牌認證，威樂證明了在其新建築中對於永續性品質的高要求，畢竟，對於DGNB來說，該系統也是被全球各種綠色建築標籤中認定為最先進及最有企圖心的"。
LEED Certification

DGNB Certification
DGNB 認證
Founded in 2007, the DGNB is now Europe's largest network for sustainable construction with around 1,300 member organisations. The goal of the association is to promote sustainability in the construction and real estate industry and to anchor it in the consciousness of the general public. With the DGNB certification system, the independent non-profit organisation has developed a design and optimisation tool for assessing sustainable buildings, interiors and neighbourhoods, which helps to increase real sustainability in construction projects. The DGNB system is based on a holistic understanding of sustainability which equally comprises environment, people and economic efficiency.
DGNB 成立於2007年，現今是歐洲最大的永續建築脈絡網，擁有超過1300個成員組織，該協會的目的是促進建築和房地產行業的永續性，並將其根植於公眾的意識當中。憑藉DGNB認證體系，這家獨立的非營利組織開發了一種設計和優化的工具，用於評估永續建築，室內設計和社區。這有助於提供建築項目的真正永續發展。DGNB系統基於對永續性的理解定義在環境，人員和經濟效率。
