As robotics adoption accelerates across manufacturing, logistics, and infrastructure, energy consumption is emerging as a critical constraint. What was once a secondary engineering consideration is becoming a primary design challenge – shaping how robots are built, deployed, and evaluated.
At the same time, sustainability pressures are rising. ESG – environmental, social, and governance – has become a standard framework for assessing corporate responsibility, and energy efficiency now sits firmly within that agenda.
