  The BMW Group recently announced that from 2024 onwards, the BMW and MINI brands will use cast aluminum wheels produced from 100 percent green energy. This initiative applies in particular to the energy-intensive electrolytic production process of wheel casting and its raw material aluminum, which is expected to reduce carbon emissions by up to 500,000 tons per year.

     

It is estimated that the BMW Group purchases around 10 million light-alloy wheels each year, 95 percent of which are made of cast aluminum. The production of these wheels accounts for about 5 percent of the carbon emissions of the BMW Group's entire supply chain. The use of green energy will make its production process more in line with the concept of sustainable development, which can reduce carbon emissions by more than 50%.

For example, the use of 100 percent green energy in the production of cast aluminum wheels, as well as the systematic increase in the use of recycled aluminum, guided by the BMW Group's circular economy principles.


                    


In addition, since 2021, the BMW Group has been sourcing aluminum produced using solar electricity from the United Arab Emirates for processing in the light metal foundry at the BMW Group's Landshut plant for the manufacture of body and driveline components. The 43,000 tons of aluminum produced from green energy sourced from Dubai will cover the light metal foundry's production needs for six months.



  Jwheel, as an professional wheel manufacturer, concentrates in R&D and manufacturing of aluminum alloy wheels, including casting wheels, forging wheels and flow-form wheels. The products of it have passed the certifications of SEI、SEMA,VIA, JWL, JWL-T, TUV and so on. Since establishment, Jwheel has been developing steadily, with rich experience of designing and producing aluminum alloy wheels. It has earned the appreciation of both domestic market and foreign market with its high technology, good quality and customer service. It provided OEM service to many international brands like Vossen, OE Wheel, TSW, Rays, ProLine, Oxygen, AUTEC, etc., and it also provide ODM service, that is, for producing a new wheel, you can just provide a sketch, drawing or picture, and then Jwheel will finish the rest parts. By the way, the MOQ of forging wheels is four. (For more information, just go to the website: https://www.jjjwheel.com)
