Hitachi ABB Power Grids in India today announced it would achieve carbon-neutrality targets by 2030 in its own operations. It has already signed power purchase agreements with some of the green power generators in Gujarat including Amplus Solar Solutions and will be signing more such contracts to move to 100 per cent green energy by March 2022.
As part of its drive to ‘build back better’, the company is adopting a three-dimensional approach to decarbonization. The programme is designed to reduce the carbon footprint of its own operations and in the products that it delivers.
The approach includes a carbon-neutral target of 100 per cent fossil-free electricity by the close of FY22. The company currently consumes about 44605.316 megawatt per hour (unit) of power.
