Advancing the Use of Renewable Energy

In 2023, our Technolube lube oil blending plant in Dubai became the first Petrolube plant to advance the use of clean and renewable energy for our operations and manufacturing processes by entering a 15-year partnership with a renowned energy supplier to install Solar Voltaic Power Generation Systems.

The 452 kWp solar plant installed in June 2023, has a capacity to generate 730,000 kWh. The project aligns with the Shams Dubai initiative for sustainable energy use, and helps contribute towards Dubai’s Clean Energy Strategy 2050, which aims to have 75% of Dubai’s energy generated from clean sources by 2050.

Reducing energy consumption is at the heart of our energy management strategy. We are adopting multiple ways and means to reduce our consumption such as exploring new technologies, modifying old processes, and spreading awareness. In line with our project, we have installed LED lights in our operations sites and offices. In addition to energy reductions, the project has yielded significant cost savings and positioned Technolube as an industry innovator and role model for other companies seeking to develop and implement renewable energy strategies
