ABB’s drives and motors swappage
scheme allows companies to trade in
their old drives and motors from any
manufacturer for new ones from
ABB. The scheme offers at least
17.5% discount off published list
prices for new drives from 0.12 to
400kW and new motors from 0.75 to
710kW when old equivalent
products are traded in.

“The scheme originally launched to
coincide with the introduction of the
government’s CRC Energy Efficiency
Scheme has taken on new importance
with the introduction of the EU
MEPS legislation for minimum
efficiency levels of low voltage motors.

It aims to give organisations an additional
incentive to meet their carbon
dioxide reduction commitment and
reduce their energy consumption,”
says Steve Ruddell, head of global
marketing – motors and generators.
