Powering new mobility
Regular and reliable transportation is essential in today’s world. It guarantees access to jobs, education, healthcare and food, enabling people, societies and businesses to prosper. Yet, this complex flow of goods and people has also created one of the greatest environmental challenges in human history. Developing sustainable mobility is an important opportunity, and one with many facets. Just think of innovations such as autonomous driving, mobility-on-demand or alternative propulsion systems.
GF is one of the players working on advancing this kind of technological progress, while lowering the environmental impact at the same time. We are inspired by hydrogen applications; we strive to find energy-efficient solutions and we build lighter components for all kinds of mobility. Isn’t that a great motivator for us? You can read more about the contributions of our three divisions in the Spotlight story, and see for yourself how GF is achieving its vision to become a sustainability and innovation leader.
I’m happy that we are also working on these technologies. As a business, we have a responsibility to transform technical advances into solutions that make business sense, for the needs of today and tomorrow.
