Ansys has released a report showcasing the role of simulation in assessing and improving sustainability across industries. The report details a new methodology that allows companies to measure the environmental impact of decisions made during early design stages and throughout the product life cycle. Through collaborations with companies like Danfoss Drives, Infineon, and Mars, Ansys simulation solutions have enabled reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across various product life cycles. Sustainability has become a critical focus for businesses worldwide, driven by regulatory requirements, consumer demand, and climate change concerns. Ansys' simulation tools offer businesses the agility to respond to these challenges by optimizing designs to meet sustainability goals such as waste reduction, energy efficiency improvement, and carbon footprint reduction. The report highlights four pillars of sustainability-focused solutions that Ansys provides: clean environment, materials and circularity, energy solutions (including hydrogen fuel cells), and manufacturing and operational efficiency. These solutions enable companies to predict ROI for sustainability initiatives through virtual prototyping and process optimization. A four-step methodology outlined in the report helps identify simulation's positive impact on sustainability efforts by prioritizing key metrics, evaluating initiatives, assessing contributions, and quantifying the overall impact. Case studies presented in the report demonstrate how companies like Danfoss Drives and Infineon have leveraged Ansys simulation to achieve significant energy savings and emission reductions. Experts in the field, including Michael Laursen from Danfoss Drives and Jan Paul Stein from McKinsey, emphasize the pivotal role of advanced simulation technologies in meeting global emissions targets and driving sustainable product development. Ansys' suite of solutions aims to empower customers to develop innovative and sustainable products efficiently, contributing to the global effort of reducing emissions and addressing climate change.
