Ecological and social responsibility have priority at Voith. Acting sustainably is an essential element of our success. We are making our sustainability strategy transparent for the general public.
The number of people living in megacities is increasing worldwide. Thanks to Voith technologies, these cities operate public transport systems that are modern and safe.
Voith is a pioneer in waste paper processing. The company developed the technology decades ago, thus paving the way for the production of paper from recycled fiber.
Hydropower is the most efficient of all renewable energies and is available anytime almost everywhere all over the world. In Canada, it is the most important source of electrical power within the country’s total energy mix.
Making Climate-Friendly Electricity PossibleVoith Technologies Boost Energy Switch.
"Climate change and diminishing resources are a challenge. Yet they also present opportunities for growth with new solutions."
(Dr. Hubert Lienhard, President & CEO)
Hydro power stations from Voith supply climate-friendly energy worldwide. Voith is at the forefront with all developments of new forms of regenerative energy generation: for example the potential of the oceans that has so far hardly been exploited.
Mobility for MegacitiesOur Contribution for the Megacities of the Future
Thanks to Voith technology, buses and rail systems in megacities operate reliably, safely and eco-friendly.
Voith equips buses and rail systems in large conurbations with the latest technology - from automatic couplers to hybrid drives. Voith therefore makes a significant contribution to modern, safe and eco-friendly mobility of people and goods.

Small hydropower plants make mostly use of rivers with no large dams and reservoirs. They are either grid connected or they can also be used for isolated homes, small communities or rural industry in off-grid remote areas – and improve the livelihood of many people all over the globe.
They are flexible, dynamic and highly efficient: pumped storage power plants. Thanks to their mature technology, they can quickly store surplus electrical energy and feed the grids when the demand for energy is high.
Voith has concluded one of the largest hydropower projects in the company’s history this year: Xiluodu. The impressive plant is now in operation – and it paves the way for the future.
Ecological and social responsibility have first priority for Voith. Acting sustainably is an essential element of our success. We are making our sustainability strategies open to the general public.
