In a move to enhance sustainability and reduce carbon emissions, Mondelez Pakistan has partnered with Shams Power to solarize its confectionary and powdered beverages plants. This collaboration will bring the total installed solar capacity to around 2.2 MW across both sites.
Shams Power will take the reins on installing the solar equipment. They’ll also manage the operation and maintenance of the systems throughout the agreement. Upon completion of the term, the equipment will be transferred to Mondelez Pakistan.
Expected Impact: Clean Energy and Reduced Emissions
This project is expected to generate a significant impact. The project will inject approximately 3.3 million units of clean energy into Mondelez’s electricity mix annually. Furthermore, this translates to offsetting around 1,500 tons of carbon emissions each year, a reduction equivalent to the annual electricity consumption of roughly 1,000 households!
