At JR Metal, sustainability is built into the way we operate. As part of our long-term commitment to responsible manufacturing, we have established a 42 MW solar power plant in Tamil Nadu. Spread across 100 acres, the facility generates clean, renewable energy to power our steel production.
The plant operates under a group captive model, ensuring that the electricity produced is dedicated exclusively to our manufacturing operations. Power is transmitted through a 110 kV network to the state grid and adjusted against consumption at our Gummidipoondi unit. Today, solar energy meets more than 50% of our total power requirement.
This transition to renewable energy significantly reduces our dependence on conventional power sources and helps us avoid over 60,000 tons of CO₂ emissions annually. The project results in greener steel, smarter energy use, and a manufacturing ecosystem aligned with the future of sustainable infrastructure, reflecting our commitment to energy efficiency, environmental responsibility, and sustainable industrial growth.
Building on this commitment, the company is actively investing in expanding its renewable energy capacity, with a clear vision to achieve 100% green power consumption in the near future.
