Additionally, we are increasingthe use of soft starts on large motors and variable frequency and variablespeed drives to reduce motor power consumption and prevent damagingpower surges.Rail and transportation – rail transport creates 1/3 of the emissionscompared to long haul trucking. Scoular has invested in multiple trainloading facilities and over 100 car trains to move interior grain from 1215 facilities to market.
