Reon Energy Limited today announced its latest
project at Service Industries Limited (SIL). The 1000 kW solar energy system
will provide considerable savings in energy-costs, along with an expected
reduction of 517 tonnes in the annual carbon-emissions. The on-grid solar plant
shall also sell excess energy to the grid during downtime.
A formal inauguration ceremony for this
eco-friendly project was held at the factory premises of Service Industries at
Muridke, near Lahore. It was attended by the CEO of SIL – Mr. Omar Saeed and
the Ambassador of Germany – Mr. Martin Kobler, accompanied by Mr. Jurgen Colsch
- the CEO of Caprice – a footwear company from Poland.
The CEO of SIL - Mr. Omar Saeed said; “The 1000
kW solar energy system will provide considerable reduction in energy-costs and
carbon-emissions. We hope that this initiative creates awareness about
environment-protection among the entrepreneurs, to bring a change in the
mindset of the export-industries of Pakistan.”
He further added “SIL is a leading manufacturer
of footwear – Servis Shoes. It is also one of the pioneering companies in the
country, leading the way towards energy-efficiency and conservation. Pakistan
enjoys a geo-strategic advantage for producing abundant amounts of solar
energy. Hence, solar technology can save millions of dollars for the country’s
economic growth, while also offering various ecological benefits”.
The CEO of Reon Energy Ltd. – Mujtaba Haider
Khan commented that: “Pakistan is one of the top 10 countries, worst affected
by climate change. Eco-friendly initiatives by local manufacturers can
slow-down the climate-change process. This initiative is a wonderful
opportunity for SIL’s management and employees to be a part of a change that is
so essential for sustainable growth of our nation.”
The German Ambassador - Martin
Kobler stated that: The relations between Pakistan and Germany go far
beyond business engagements. This project will contribute to the well-being of

has revolutionized the energy sector in Germany and will hopefully become a
game-changer in Pakistan too. Thank you for creating a sustainable vision for
Pakistan and protecting the world’s ecology.
