Global construction technology leader Trimble released its 2020 Sustainability Report recently. According to the report鈥檚 findings, Trimble鈥檚 solutions contribute to fuel savings around the world that are equivalent to an estimated reduction of 7 million metric tonne in greenhouse gas emissions. The report further noted that these savings are equivalent to taking over 1.6 million passenger vehicles off the road for one year; or meeting the electricity needs of over 1.2 million homes for one year.

Trimble鈥檚 construction technology solutions alone help reduce 553,964 metric tons greenhouse gas emissions on a yearly basis. These solutions contribute to up to 50 per cent less rework, up to 30 per cent cost savings, waste reduction and up to 30 per cent machine productivity and fuel savings. For civil construction, machine control systems available from Trimble improve accuracy and efficiency of heavy earthmoving equipment, thereby enabling job completion in less time, and using less diesel fuel. As the adoption of these technologies increases world-wide for infrastructure build-out such reduction is expected to be much greater.
