pellenc Excelion 1200 - Environmental Impact and Carbon Footprint

BILAN CARBONE
INTRODUCTION
Lithium-Ion technology combined with the electric PELLENC motor means that the EXCELION 1200
emits very little CO2 into the atmosphere, giving it the image of a clean tool.
When comparing the direct CO2 emissions of the EXCELION 1200 and a heat-engine powered brush-cutter,
a huge difference can be seen. A heat-engine powered brush-cutter has direct CO2 emissions of over 4.2
tons per year, while the EXCELION 1200 only emits 67 kg.
Using the EXCELION 1200 means reducing direct emissions by approximately 98 % compared to a
heat-engine; that’s 64 times less!
If you recharge PELLENC batteries using our SOLERION solar charger,
direct CO2 emissions are reduced to ZERO

By using PELLENC tools:
- you considerably reduce greenhouse gas emissions,
- you strongly participate in protecting the environment.
Data: On average, 1 kWh EDF has a carbon equivalent to 90 g of CO2 per kWh in France, covering production and remaining life
(ADEME-France).
1 liter of SP95 unleaded fuel corresponds to a direct carbon emission equivalent of 2,542g CO2/l and a production + direct carbon
emission of 5,518g CO2/l.
Based on: 6 hours of work per day and 200 days of work annually.
“Every type of human activity creates greenhouse gas emissions, whether directly or indirectly. Therefore,
every company, administration or association may quite rightly take an interest in the emissions they

Bilan Carbone® method is a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions assessment tool. It uses easily available

In order to act responsibly, PELLENC has launched an environmentally friendly range of tools with
minimum CO2 emissions, which can be as low as zero thanks to the SOLERION solar charger.
Thanks to the development of its own Lithium-Ion clean technology, PELLENC proposes ultra-high capacity
batteries with a record level of autonomy and power to rival heat motors. In addition, the PELLENC
motor makes the tool exceptionally protable as it consumes very little energy and is unbeatably
lightweight.
