EPA recognizes potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions

The ABB Baldor-Reliance EC Titanium motor has been recognized with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s 2024 Energy Star Emerging Technology Award. This annual award recognizes products that meet stringent performance criteria in specific categories. By highlighting innovative solutions with the potential to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the award promotes promising technologies that may not yet fully align with the Energy Star certification requirements or may be relatively more complex to properly install and operate. The EPA’s efforts to raise awareness about these products contribute to increased demand, potentially reducing costs and expanding availability. EC Titanium has received the Emerging Technology Award in the category of commercial HVAC electric motors. Thirteen EC Titanium models, from 7.5 to 20 hp (5.5 to 15 kW) meet the technical requirements for the award.

 

EC Titanium is a highly efficient motor that combines synchronous reluctance and permanent magnet technologies. The EC Titanium motor is designed to be paired with a variable speed drive and is optimized for energy management and sustainability and ideal for fans, pumps, blowers, compressors, vacuum pumps, HVAC systems and other variable speed applications.
