commercial and industrial vehicles globally. Vehicle manufacturers
and operators are looking to simplify and accelerate the
electrification of their applications. They also expect the lowest
carbon footprint for their products. Since 2019, we have been
committing to lower our environmental footprint and the approval of
our science-based greenhouse gas emissions reductions targets by
SBTi is an important step in our strategy to contribute to the
mitigation of climate change. Our ESG performance was also rewarded
by EcoVadis as we renew our Gold Medal, highlighting the progress
made by all Forsee Power employees everywhere we operate,”
