Godrej Agrovet Honoured with two awards for sustainable initiatives

Vijayawada, Sep 4 (UNI) The Godrej Agrovet Oil Palm Plantation (OPP) plant in Chintampalli has been honoured as "Excellent Energy Efficient Unit" at the 21st National Award for Excellence in Energy Management 2020 based on its performance and achievement in energy efficiency.
Their plant in Seethanagaram was also honoured with the “CII Environmental Best Practices Award 2020” and recognised as an “Innovative Environmental Project” for their efforts in Waste Management earlier last month.
Over 99 per cent of the plant’s energy comes from renewable sources and the plant sends no waste to landfill. All organic waste from the palm fruit bunches are either processed and reused in the plant boiler fuel (renewable energy) or sold off. Chintampalli plant has also reduced its specific energy by 12 per cent over three years through various energy efficiency measures.
Mr Nasim Ali, CEO, Godrej Agrovet, Oil Palm Plantations, said in a statement here on Friday, “We ensure sustainability is at the core of any new technology investment. Driven by the desire to create a more inclusive and greener India, at Godrej, our initiatives are broadly classified under GOOD–Community CSR initiatives and GREEN – Environmental Sustainability Initiatives."
