ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY

Finding Hard-to-Find Equipment

One of the key ways RESA Power supports environmental sustainability is through its ability to supply customers with equipment that is difficult to find elsewhere.

Often, when a single breaker or component needs to be substituted in a switchgear, it cannot be readily found or remanufactured. In such cases, the typical solution would involve replacing the entire switchgear lineup with a new OEM solution, which can be a costly endeavor, often running into millions of dollars.

Reduced Waste and Component Lifetime Extension

By incentivizing the reuse of products, RESA Power actively promotes waste reduction. Rather than scrapping and extracting new resources, their practices focus on giving existing components a second life. This approach greatly reduces all forms of waste, such as scrap metal and obsolete electronics.

Instead of contributing to landfills, scrapped parts are returned to the economy or used more efficiently. Consequently, the carbon footprint associated with sourcing and extracting new materials is significantly reduced.

Positive Impact on the Environment

RESA Power’s commitment to environmental sustainability extends beyond waste reduction. By remanufacturing and reusing components, we help conserve natural resources, reduce energy consumption, and minimize greenhouse gas emissions.

Our practices align with the principles of a circular economy, where resources are optimized, waste is diminished, and the lifespan of components is extended. This approach not only benefits the environment but also promotes a more sustainable electrical industry.
