  • Using less, enabling more, to help the world thrive.

    We help harvest sunlight. We develop and supply a quality reliable connection to the grid. We reduce the weight of power transmission lines and enable them to carry more power. All over the globe, 3M is helping save energy, reduce the cost per watt and uncover new ways to create and sustain a more viable future. We collaborate with those who protect, harness and conserve energy in every industry and on every continent. We are driven to discover new ways to harness the Earth’s energy and optimise valuable natural resources.

 


Innovation in Action

  • Keep the energy on the music, not going out the window.

    Metal-free nanotechnology in 3M™ Window Film Prestige Exterior Series rejects up to 97 per cent of the sun’s heat-producing infrared light and up to 99 per cent of UV rays, helping the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame reduce energy costs by 8 to 12 per cent annually.

  • Here’s a brighter idea.

    Use silver metallised and weatherable polymeric film with a solar-weighted total hemispherical reflectance of 94% to direct light. The result: Brighter LED lamps in Africa.

  • More power, less disruption.

    Using aluminium composite for the conductor core of a power line means you can carry twice the electrical power at half the weight—without disrupting existing infrastructure.

  • See how we’re harnessing natural light to reduce energy.

    Micro-structured prisms optically direct as much as 80 percent of exterior natural light in and up, helping a first-of-its-kind Net Zero Walgreens drugstore produce more energy than it consumes.
