Solar
KPL has been a pioneer in their tryst with ever-evolving technologies to safeguard our environment and the use of Solar Energy has been an integral part of our Philosophy:
- In 2014, we were the first in Uttar Pradesh, to install Rooftop Solar panels at our Unit 2 which used to produce about 1,250 units per day on average. This helped us in reducing the carbon footprint by 6,79,830 Kgs per annum.
- In 2019, we started sourcing solar power of 9375 KWp in Unit 1 and Unit 3 from solar installation under Long Term Open Access Agreement.
- In 2022; we commissioned a Solar rooftop plant of 2750 KWp in Unit 3.
- The company currently fulfilling almost 70% of its energy requirements through Solar installations.
- It helps to save up to 12,200 MT of carbon emission per year.
- In 2023, we commissioned our CPP Films plant and to meet its energy requirements we have signed a 3000 KWp Power Purchase Agreement to source Solar Energy, reinforcing its commitment to eco-friendly manufacturing. The supply of solar power under this agreement will commence wef April 2024.
- After the addition of 3000 KWp of solar power, our savings on carbon emission will become 14,970 MT per year.
Water & Rainwater Harvesting
KPL is a Zero Liquid Discharge factory that engages in efficient waste disposal through:
- Sewage waste at Unit-2 & Unit-3 treated through STPs installed in the respective units
