MG Motor India has announced its partnership with CleanMax, to get 50% of the energy required for its manufacturing operations from renewable resources.
For the next 15 years, the Halol facility will continue to draw power from CleanMax's hybrid park in Rajkot, ensuring a reliable and sustainable energy source, the company noted.
The carmaker pledges to reduce CO2 emissions by nearly two lakh MT over the course of 15 years, which is equivalent to the positive environmental impact of planting over 13 lakh trees. The brand has already witnessed 36% decrease in CO2 emissions, with levels dropping from 0.59 MT in 2022 to 0.38 MT in the first quarter of 2023.
The company noted that the reduction in emissions has resulted in a significant decrease of 2,251MT in its carbon footprint Q1 this year. Projections indicate that this downward trend will continue, with an estimated carbon footprint reduction of 11,889 MT by the end of this year.
