This envisages the installation of a photovoltaic system at the Buftea plant of Promateris, which should aid the company transition to green energy by replacing fossil fuel-based energy with solar one.
The value of the investment revolves around EUR1 million, with EUR597,000 coming as non-reimbursable Norwegian funds.
“Through the new project we plan to replace the use of traditional energy with renewable one in the production process. Our commitment to the environment is a firm one and this project will take us closer to our objective of manufacturing packaging with the lowest carbon fooprint at the level of the entire CEE market,” explains Tudor Geogescu, Promateris CEO.
The project is expected to be completed in May 2023.
The green energy obtained accounts for 19% in Promateris energy needs.
“For Promateris, this project will help boost the company’s competitiveness and improve its product portfolio, slashing even more the carbon footprint of Buftea plant. This will ease the expansion of Promateris on new CEE markets,” say the company’s officials.
This is the third Promateris project carried out with Norwegian funds.
