The World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) declared 2021 as a make-or-break year for climate change. Increasing temperatures, frequent droughts and rising water levels are just some of the effects of environmental damage, making the need for drastic action clear.<\/p>\n

2021 is the first time since 2015 that world leaders came together to positively make a difference for climate change. This year, restrictions were imposed on auto-manufacturers and industrial sectors. If they fail to stick to their quotas, they will be hit where it hurts most \u2013 their pockets. As a result, organisations are switching to sustainable and renewable energy solutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs South Africa\u2019s leading energy solutions provider, we play an important role in protecting the environment. Our range of sustainable and renewable energy solutions designed and manufactured to assist business, industry and governments with solutions to make the switch seamlessly\u201d, said Murray Long, Managing Director of First National Battery. \u201cIn addition, we have championed a nationwide battery recycling programme that reduces the need for lead-mining.\u201d<\/p>\n

Battery manufacturers have stepped up with the following solutions,<\/p>\n

Solar batteries
Solar-powered storage solutions store and distribute power efficiently using a high-cycle, low discharge technology. Single solar batteries can power small appliances, while full solar solutions can power an entire house or small business and reduce reliance on the national power grid.<\/p>\n

Renewable energy solutions
Lead-acid battery cabinets are equipped with a number of batteries, and can run basic amenities in a household or business and are an excellent alternative to constant power outages. They reduce reliance on the grid or generator power. (Which make use of coal and diesel, both high in emissions.)<\/p>\n

Battery recycling
Battery recycling is a smart way of reducing waste and reusing old batteries. South Africa\u2019s leading battery manufacturer has a programme that collects and stores old vehicle batteries, and sends them to a special recycling facility \u2013 where the lead and plastic are recycled. The benefits of the recycling programme include,
– Reducing plastic waste by repurposing plastic battery casings into pellets which are used to manufacture new batteries.
– Reduce lead-mining, which is not only labour intensive, but also has a large, negative impact on the environment.
– Safely neutralises and disposes of harmful chemicals and acids.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy implementing smart, future-forward solutions that put the environment first, we can contribute to cleaner energy. Every solution, product and service reduces the impact on the planet, leaving future generations to enjoy a happy, healthy world\u201d, says Murray Long, Managing Director of First National Battery .<\/p>\n

Did you know this about Johannesburg?<\/strong> The Rand Club of Johannesburg is the oldest private members’ club in Johannesburg, South Africa, and founded in October 1887. The plan for the current, third, clubhouse was put on paper in 1902 and its construction was finished in 1904 on the design by architects Leck & Emley in the Edwardian neo-baroque style. <\/p>\n
