Strategic Insights

— 1 min read

PTT Global Chemical, the parent company of GC Group, has partnered with TotalEnergies to install a solar photovoltaic (PV) rooftop system as part of its "Together to Net Zero" campaign for sustainable growth. The solar power system is expected to generate approximately 1,200 megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable energy annually and reduce carbon footprint by about 700 tons of CO2 emissions avoided annually. This initiative aligns with GC Group's goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2030 and achieve net zero emissions by 2050.

Key Takeaways:

  • The solar PV rooftop system installed by TotalEnergies is expected to generate approximately 1,200 MWh of renewable energy annually, reducing carbon footprint by about 700 tons of CO2 emissions avoided annually.
  • The system will help GC Group reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2030 and achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
  • The partnership is part of GC Group's "Together to Net Zero" campaign for sustainable growth, which aims to promote efficiency, reduce resources usage, and incorporate clean energy usage.
  • The solar power installations at GC's polymer storage facilities have already reduced greenhouse gas emissions by an average of approximately 518.68 tons of CO2 per year from renewable energy throughout the 20-year contract.
  • The partnership will support GC Group in achieving its sustainability goals and drive innovation to deliver better products and reduce environmental impact throughout the supply chain.

Statistics:

  • 1,600 solar panels installed
  • 1,200 MWh of renewable energy generated annually
  • 700 tons of CO2 emissions avoided annually
  • 10,000 trees equivalent in carbon footprint reduction
  • 518.68 tons of CO2 emissions reduced per year from renewable energy
  • 1 million 1-ton air-conditionings equivalent in energy savings per year
  • 20% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030
  • Net zero emissions by 2050
