In mid-December, Bosch Vietnam, in collaboration with Tona Syntegra Solar Company, celebrated the inauguration of a 1,540kWp Solar Power System at the Bosch Plant (HcP). This event represents a major step for HcP in its transition to green energy for production, aligning with the Bosch Group's commitment to sustainability.

"This ethos permeates the entire Bosch group, manifesting in our day-to-day actions. Across all activities and the production processes, our goal is to minimise electricity consumption significantly, striving for effective CO2 neutrality through a multitude of initiatives. The solar power system stands out as a noteworthy project, exemplifying our steadfast commitment to utilising energy sustainably," Abbing continued.

The successful installation of the solar panel system at the Bosch Vietnam plant will generate approximately 2,300MWh of clean energy annually and cut 1,630 tons of CO2 emissions. This reduction is equivalent to planting around 30,000 trees annually.

Underlining its dedication to environmental protection, the Bosch Vietnam Plant has made a significant investment of around $1 million to install a wastewater recycling system. Since 2020, this initiative has enabled the plant to use treated wastewater for 65 per cent of its total consumption.
