This involves a transaction with UST Plastic Bottle Manufacturer, which was GC’s client and a major packaging manufacturer for bottled water in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Additionally, GC plans to trade plastic resin to Laos as its next destination. GCand TotalEnergies ENEOS launch a solar rooftop project towards Net Zero Goal GC partnered with TotalEnergies ENEOS to initiate a solar rooftop project aimed at addressing climate change. Under this initiative, more than 11,000 solar panels were installed on the rooftops of five production facilities under GC, creating a 6.7-megawatt peak (MWp) solar energy system. This system generates approximately 9,500 megawatt-hours (MWh) of renewable energy per year, resulting in cost savings on energy expenses. It is also estimated to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by approximately 4,300 tCO2 per year, equivalent to planting over 64,500 trees throughout the agreement duration. The initiative aligns with GC’s business approach, which seeks to drive robust growth alongside customer care under the concept “Together to Net Zero,” with a medium-term target to reduce GHG emissions by 20% by 2030 and achieve Net Zero by 2050.
