Yoshiyuki Kobayashi, Head of UD Trucks Operations Bangkok, said:
“This is the first UD Trucks factory to install solar panels on such a scale. Our commitment towards sustainability and great collaboration with partners have been instrumental in achieving this key milestone. By utilizing environmentally sustainable technologies at our production facilities, we will significantly contribute to Isuzu Group’s target of a 50% reduction in carbon emissions by 2030, compared to 2013.”
Ugo Bernal, Director of Commercial Solutions BECIS, said:
“It was my pleasure to participate at the UD Trucks’ launch of the 1 MWp Solar PV rooftop facility. This facility will generate yearly savings of around 700 tons of carbon dioxide along with high financial savings on the tariff per kWh below the grid price. BECIS is delighted to support UD Trucks in its carbon neutrality journey. The logistics sector is currently at the forefront of global sustainability efforts. Through this project, UD Trucks provides a leadership example on sustainability that the automotive industry should embrace.”
UD Trucks is committed to making life better through sustainable transport solutions. Partnerships such as this project with BECIS, will play a key role in reducing environmental impacts across the entire value chain.
