Conserving energy and resources was always a top priority at Traunreut. A biomass heating plant was established on the company premises in 1999, which produced more CO2-neutral electricity than the site needed. The excess electricity was given to the municipality of Traunreut. Likewise, the additional heat recovered was fed into the municipal district heating network.<ref>Traunreut Site Flyer, page 7; Environmental Report 1998/1999, page 17.</ref> Since 2012, the newly constructed container terminal has ensured that many consignments are no longer transported by truck, rather by train, saving around 1,000 truck journeys every year.
