BMW is a company that is not only dedicated to giving you the best vehicles, but it is also committed to helping the environment. Every year the company plays its part by using methane gas from a local disposal area at its Spartanburg plant, rather than using natural gas. This spares the atmosphere 17,000 tons of greenhouse gas emissions a year.
When the Spartanburg Plant was built in 1993, it was designed to have a 9.5-mile pipeline from the Palmetto Landfill to the facility where the BMW Z4 and X5 are built. This recycled methane gas provides 50% of the total energy for the plant and helps keep energy costs low.
BMW’s efforts to help the environment are not just taking place at this plant. In the past 10 years, the manufacturer’s global production network has reduced CO2 emissions by 30%.
BMW vehicles are not only among the finest out there, but they are also made by a manufacturer that believes in sustainability.
