Engine Factory, Research Center, and Wastewater Treatment Plant in Brazil Focused on Sustainability

The new projects spread across Brazil are all based on sustainability and decarbonization, as the multinational giant adopted this new ideology since 2016 and puts it into practice in pursuit of a cleaner world. Associating this with a constant search for innovation, the global giant is now launching its Research and Development Center to improve the efficiency of the trucks produced and expanding its engine factory.

Scania Vehicles and Engine Factory are Already Part of the New Motor Vehicle Air Pollution Control Program (Proconve)

Brazil is implementing a program similar to Euro 6, called the Motor Vehicle Air Pollution Control Program (Proconve). Starting in 2023, automakers and companies in the automotive sector will need to adapt to new rules, but Scania is already prepared and meets mission requirements with its gas and biometane-powered engines.

“For almost three years, the program has involved hundreds of specialized professionals from various areas of the company, and indirectly, almost the entire organization is committed to the requirements.”

Engines produced in Brazil will meet the demand across Latin America and the existing regulations related to sustainability.

Scania’s Goal is to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 50% in Factories and 20% in In-Use Vehicles by 2025

Scania began its sustainability quest in 2016 and, in 2020, received the unprecedented approval of its climate goals by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). Thus, it became the first vehicle manufacturer in the world to have such an accolade.

Based on the continuation of actions in the sustainability sector, the company has set two main goals by 2025: to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the group’s industrial and commercial operations by 50% and to reduce equivalent carbon emissions in the fleet of buses and trucks produced by 20%.

Additionally, the company has joined the Climate Pledge initiative, led by Amazon and Global Optimism, to achieve zero emissions by 2040.

In Addition to the Engine Factory, Scania Will Test Electric Vehicles at the Plant in São Bernardo do Campo (SP)

Scania also announced new tests of electric vehicles at the plant in São Bernardo do Campo (SP), to cap its celebrations. This project includes a battery electric bus (BEV) and an electric truck.

“Brazil has always been an important laboratory for our products. And electric will be a great learning opportunity to help adapt this technology to the conditions of Latin America and also develop expertise inside and outside Scania. We have a clear objective to expand knowledge about the electrification of heavy vehicles.”

Christopher Podgorski, President and CEO of Scania Latin America (2022)

The Swedish multinational intends to remain in the country for many years, and increasingly invests to expand its business here. It is undoubtedly a triumph for the Brazilian people!
