Goa, India | August 4, 2026: EP Biocomposites Limited (BSE SME: 543595), a manufacturer of fibre reinforced polymer (FRP) products and wastewater treatment solutions, has announced two significant sustainability milestones that reinforce its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) roadmap. The company has commissioned a 30-kW Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) Rooftop Power System at its Goa manufacturing facility and has been recognised by the Golden Book of World Records for facilitating the Most People Taking an Environmental Protection Pledge Simultaneously.
The twin initiatives demonstrate EP Biocomposites’ integrated sustainability strategy by combining cleaner manufacturing practices with community-led environmental awareness. While the solar installation is expected to reduce the company’s reliance on conventional energy sources and improve operational efficiency, the record-setting environmental pledge initiative underscores its commitment to encouraging public participation in environmental conservation.
Solar Power Enhances Sustainable Manufacturing
As part of its ongoing efforts to adopt renewable energy across operations, EP Biocomposites has commissioned a 30-kW Solar Photovoltaic Rooftop Power System at its Goa manufacturing facility. The installation is designed for captive consumption and will meet a entire portion of the plant’s electricity requirements through clean energy.
With an estimated operational life of 25 years, the project is expected to improve energy efficiency, lower dependence on conventional electricity sources and generate annual savings of approximately ₹1.50 lakh. The facility has an annual electricity requirement of around 18,600 kWh, with current monthly electricity expenses estimated at ₹12,500.
The initiative represents another milestone in the company’s long-term sustainability strategy by integrating renewable energy into its manufacturing operations while delivering operational efficiencies and environmental benefits.
