Lamborghini factory in Sant 'Agata' Goes Green

Lamborghini recently announced a new 17 thousand square meters in terms of PV or a simple solar panels produce power system has been installed and officially opened in Santagata. We all know that this is the manufacturing center and is basically Lamborghini the heart and soul of Lamborghini. This photovoltaic system along with other environmentally friendly processes integrated in Sant 'Agata provides a reduction in emissions 30% CO2, equivalent to more than 1,067 tons per year for the entire company Lamborghini.

This environmentally friendly operation affects important areas of business: manufacturing facility, sales offices, the department of customer service and design center (Centro Stile), occupying a total area of 17,000 square meters, equivalent to more than two football fields.

According to the immaculate dresses Stephan Winkelmann, President and CEO of Automobili Lamborghini SpA, the company, continue on this path, and evaluation of activities will, in future, a significant reduction 50% in CO2 emissions factorys. This goes hand in hand with the development of real products, where our goal is to reduce emissions by 35% in 2015.

Introduction in 2007 and ended on schedule in late 2009 by the Spanish group sl Gestamp Asetym Solar, a leader in the field of investment from renewable sources, and Synergy Sistemi SpA, an Italian market leader in energy saving, which specializes in the management of civil and industrial power and the creations of great systems that exploit renewable sources, the implementation of the PV system is a major project to improve energy, has a total capacity of 1.4 MW, green energy production of 1,582 MWh / year with a 20% reduction in emissions. A reduction of 10% was obtained by applying an insulation thermal cover the entire roof of the plant, the introduction of home automation for lighting and heating systems and using destratifiers hot air. In addition, a counter in the entrance of the factory offers a real-time visualization of the kilowatt-hour of electricity produced and the amount Effective kilograms of CO2.

Of course, now the question is whether a green plant that ultimately produces luxury cars are not so green or environmentally friendly in the first place, is a way to be responsible with the environment. There is a certain irony to this fact.

Of course, reasoning behind this is that while you are building luxury cars of high consumption of gas that can at least build in a healthy environment environment and that in a bit of a green R & D department has gained experience internationally recognized, allowing you to achieve the goals that can only are possible by using innovative technologies and materials such as composites and carbon fiber that Lamborghini research focuses on:

reduce the weight of vehicles mostly through the use of carbon fiber in cars;

improved combustion

reduce friction;

systems integration start and end point;

transmission hybrid solutions, and

biofuels

Which in turn is supposed to Lamborghini cars more environmentally friendly tree hugging supercars.

According to the means of releasing the first milestone was achieved with the Gallardo LP 560-4. The new technical solutions to this self allowing a reduction in CO2 emissions of 18%, and nearly 20% in the most Valentino Balboni rear-wheel drive version and a 70 kg weight loss in the LP570-4. These cars are improved results with a diminished power to weight ratio, and a total mass reduced which means that CO2 emissions are also decreased.

Imagine that, a joint report in the manufacture of super responsible. Concepts as it did not exist 10 years ago. In those days, we have concentrated on making the product as environmentally friendly as possible, these companies now are announcing a holistic concept into a product. I wonder if it is the same whether to build an atomic bomb factory in a green and environmentally friendly, then use it to kill a trillion or so that people would kill people in a way friendly green tree hugging? Well, I can be exaggerated. A little. Like any Lamborghini that is lighter and faster due to weight loss and burns less fuel is a very good thing. But only a good thing if I I can let the damn thing first if you understand.
