Lechera Guadalajara
"We have greatly profited from our solar investment. It not only allows us to use the sun's energy to pasteurise 350,000 litres of milk ten hours a day, but pasteurisation has become easier to manage. The solar heat system provides much more stable temperatures than the steam boilers we use."
RAM Pharma
"RAM Pharma is committed to reduce its CO2 emissions. We decided to use Fresnel collector technology, as it's the best option for generating solar process steam. Our system was commissioned in March 2015 and cut diesel consumption by 42%, exceeding expectations."

Amul
"We strongly believe green energy to be the future of sustainable development. The concentrating solar thermal project was implemented as a pathbreaking showcase, with more to come. It delivers the projected output, and we are exploring to replicate this at several other union member’s dairy plants."
