MORE ON PRODUCTION. RESOURCE CONSERVATION AND RENEWABLE ENERGIES. Given our commitment to achieving net zero by 2050, we have adopted an even stronger focus on efficiency and control in our use of resources. Besides CO2 emissions, key measures of our success in this area include energy and drinking water consumption, the use of solvents in production, and waste. As we work to become less dependent on fossil fuels, we are examining all the options for switching our plants from gas to alternatives, such as electricity, biogas, hydroelectricity and geothermal energy. LEARN MORE CIRCULAR ECONOMY. At the BMW Group, we think in terms of circularity. We’re driven by the re- sponsible use of resources and the transition to a circular economy. That’s why we return selected scrap from production to the supplier so that ma- terials can be recovered and returned to a new production process.
