URT with a positive energy balance
 
URT Umwelt- und Recyclingtechnik GmbH was again able to achieve a positive energy balance in 2019. With our own photovoltaic system on the assembly and production halls, significantly more electricity was generated than was consumed during this period. In addition to self-consumption, approx. 75.000 kWh were fed into the power net. This means that not only the plants built by URT make their contribution to environmental protection worldwide, but also the company's own photovoltaic system.
