The contribution to climate protection that companies can make by switching to green electricity is correspondingly high,\u201c said Christian Traumann, Managing Director at <a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/tag\/multivac\/\">Multivac<\/a>. \u201eWe therefore do not want to exhaust the grace periods for the switchover. <strong>As an industrial company, we see it as our responsibility to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels as quickly as possible and to minimise CO<sub>2<\/sub>-emissions.<\/strong> We are therefore switching to environmentally friendly green electricity at our production sites in Germany and Austria with immediate effect.\u201c<\/p>\n<p><strong>In order to make the switch to green electricity quickly, Multivac has concluded a supplier contract with Technische Werke Schussental (TWS), which has been supplying all German sites with certified green electricity with proof of origin and reinvestment in renewable energies as a regional partner since January 2022.<\/strong> The Ravensburg-based company produces and sells exclusively green electricity and operates 27 power generation plants. With these plants, TWS generated around 72 million kilowatt hours of green electricity in 2021.<\/p><div class=\"packa-in-post-alle\" style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"packa-3148505663\"><div id=\"packa-1234106388\"><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/en\/newsletter\/\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"PJ Self-promotion English 03\"><!--noptimize--><img src=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03.png 840w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-18x5.png 18w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-332x83.png 332w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-664x166.png 664w, https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/PJ-Eigenwerbung-English-03-688x172.png 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 840px) 100vw, 840px\" width=\"840\" height=\"210\"  style=\" max-width: 100%; height: auto;\" \/><!--\/noptimize--><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<p>The official presentation of the certificate took place in Wolfertschwenden on 12 April.
