Among the workers with the highest number of incidents: people who work in factories and warehouses.

ABB creates ‘intelligent’ football stadium for FK Austria

August 20, 2019 by Anna

This is also the first sustainable football venue in Austria. It was retrofitted in co-operation with the Austrian Sustainable Building Council, who helped with planning the design and implementation, which includes a photovoltaic system on the roof of the north stand.

The stadium’s entire electrification value chain – from medium-voltage distribution to each individual socket – has been raised to an advanced level.
