[Karachi, Pakistan] – International Industries Limited (IIL) is proud to announce the
successful completion of the solarization of two schools under The Citizens Foundation
(TCF) network: the IIL Campus and the Chinoy Campus. This initiative underscores IIL’s
dedication to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7,
which aims to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable, and modern energy for all.
By transitioning the two schools to solar power, IIL not only reduces their reliance on non-
renewable energy sources but also lowers operational costs and contributes to a cleaner,
greener environment. This step highlights the company’s commitment to fostering renewable
energy solutions that benefit both local communities and the environment.
In addition to its community-based solarization efforts, IIL has taken bold steps to reduce its
dependence on expensive energy options. The Company has commissioned 3 MW and 1
MW solar energy systems at its Karachi and Sheikhupura manufacturing facilities,
respectively, bringing the total installed capacity to 4 MW. This initiative is a significant move
toward sustainable operations, ensuring that IIL reduces its reliance on non-renewable
energy sources while cutting operational costs and reducing its carbon footprint.
“At IIL, we believe that access to clean energy is fundamental to sustainable
development,” said Zain K. Chinoy, Director of Global Businesses at International
Industries Limited. “The solarization of the IIL and Chinoy Campuses is just one
example of how we are contributing to a greener future by empowering communities
and protecting the environment. We remain committed to driving renewable energy
solutions as part of our long-term sustainability goals.”
The solarization of the TCF schools and the company’s industrial facilities is part of IIL’s
broader strategy to integrate sustainable energy solutions into its operations and community
efforts, reinforcing its leadership in environmental responsibility.
