268.35 Tones / Year Reduced Co2 Emission
10MW Solar PV Plant
In 2013, buksh energy played a vital role in preserving the
environment by making it more green, healthy and lending
a hand in development of a clean eco system.. A single
Automatic Teller Machine helped reduce 1.789 tomes/year
of CO2 emission. With the installation of 150 Solar ATMs in 2013,
we were able to reduce 288.35 Tones/Yr of CO2 emission
The joint vision of Govt. of the Punjab and Buksh Energy Pvt. Limited for the
contribution of energy towards the current shortfall suggests the
establishment of a renewable energy project. Buksh Energy expanded its
business portfolio by investing in a USD$ 30 M, 10MW Solar PV Plant
project to be setup in Cholistan in year 2014. The 10 years target of BUKSH
Energy Pvt. Limited reflects this shared interest and already comprises a
number of specific actions and instruments that will expand the use of
renewable energy. The project is in its final stages of commissioning.
Saved Customers PKR 16.2 Million / $USD 160,000
Catering to the finance industry of Pakistan turned out to be a great
success for Buksh energy in 2013. We achieved our goal to save PKR 16.2M /
$USD 160,000 for the 150 Banks located nationwide in Pakistan. With our
exceptional customer centered service mechanism, BE continues to add
more banks in its list of Solar Powered ATMs for the year 2014
95 villages, 24,000 people,20 Districts
Buksh Foundation, under its project Lightening A Million Lives, pioneered
in providing solar energy to a total of 95 underprivileged and unelectirified villages in Pakistan in year 2013, impacting lives of 24,000
individuals. The project plans to reach out to 4,000 villages with a total of 1
million lives lightened by 2017. The target is to provide sustainable energy
to far flung rural off grid areas of Pakistan which account for 57% of the
population.
95 “Roshna Bibi” / Light Lady/200Technicians
In 2013, Buksh Foundation took the women economic empowerment
initiative by converting 95 women into female entrepreneurs for solar
charging stations. A total of 200 technicians were also trained for the
project. It helped in increasing their disposable incomes to 7.5% which is in
turn leading to better and enhanced living standards of the beneficiaries.
13
Think Global, Act Local
Buksh energy aims at providing the finest local technical expertise to its
partner organizations. The credit goes to our refined and strong network
links with the government bodies and all the related stakeholders in the
energy sector. In the year 2013, Buksh Energy successfully entered into
joint venture with two very prudent German companies, 8p2 and
Suntrace. With our international best practices rightly put into place, BE
expects to diversify its operations and expand its global presence in the Yr.
