Karachi: In a significant step towards achieving a sustainable industrial ecosystem, FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan Limited has announced the deployment of a 450 kW Solar Photovoltaic (PV) system integrated with a 255 kWh Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) at its Nara Dairy Farm facility. According to FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan Limited, the project, awarded to DSG Energy, represents a strategic investment in clean energy infrastructure that will strengthen the plant's energy resilience, improve operational efficiency, and accelerate the company's transition toward a lower-carbon future.
The installation is seen as embodying a forward-thinking, energy-conscious approach at FCEPL. Kashan Hasan, CEO and Managing Director of the company, highlighted the expansion of their solar initiatives across both production facilities and dairy farms. Hasan emphasized the company's commitment to integrating clean energy into operations, with a focus on environmental care and community well-being while ensuring the provision of safe, healthy, and nutritious products to consumers.
By combining on-site solar generation with advanced battery energy storage, the project is designed to optimize renewable energy consumption, reduce reliance on conventional fuel-based power generation, lower energy costs, and ensure a more reliable and resilient power supply for critical farm operations. Daniyal Siddiqui, CEO of DSG Energy, expressed pride in supporting FCEPL, noting that the Nara Dairy Farm project is a meaningful step toward building intelligent energy systems that deliver reliability, efficiency, and long-term value.
The partnership reflects a growing shift in Pakistan's industrial and agricultural landscape, where businesses are increasingly looking beyond conventional solar installations toward integrated energy systems combining renewable generation, storage, and intelligent energy management. This initiative also reinforces FrieslandCampina Engro Pakistan's commitment to environmental stewardship, operational excellence, and the adoption of innovative technologies that support long-term sustainable growth.
