On an area of nearly 13,000 square meters, one of the largest breweries in our country, located in Haskova, opened the first stage of the construction of a photovoltaic park. Thanks to it, the production capacity will be able to reduce its electricity consumption by nearly 30%. The facility is the last largest investment of Kamenitsa AD in the direction of sustainable development. The money invested in this park last year was BGN 3 million. The area of the park will be expanded and the generated electricity will increase.
“The project to build the solar park on the territory of our brewery in Haskovo is part of our strategy for sustainable development and is a natural continuation of our efforts in the direction of implementing sustainable business solutions that have added value not only for our business, but also for the environment and society as a whole. In recent years, we have been purposefully working towards purchasing only green energy, and with the investment in building our own solar park of such a scale, we believe that we will contribute to the transition to a more sustainable economy and transformation of our country. In the coming years, we plan to install solar panels on an additional area of over 5,000 sq.m., thus confirming our aspiration to be leaders and leaders in the introduction of sustainable solutions on the Bulgarian beer market, as we have proven our innovative spirit more than once over the years Vladan Matich, executive director of Kamenitsa AD, said at the opening.
The investment is part of the “Our Footprint” global long-term sustainable development strategy. The strategy is directed in three main directions: care for people (employees, consumers, customers, suppliers, partners and society); caring for the planet (using fewer resources, reducing carbon emissions, sustainable packaging) and responsible alcohol consumption (the company offers the most diverse non-alcoholic beer portfolio in our country and promotes the messages of responsible consumption and responsible driving through the long-standing campaign “Alcohol is bad driver’).
The treatment of waste water of enterprises in the Northern Industrial Zone is another example of contribution to the environment and communities, as this is a voluntary commitment that Kamenitsa AD has undertaken and is following as part of the strategy for sustainable development. The company’s aspiration is to minimize the amount of water used in the entire production cycle per 1 hectoliter of beer. In this regard, the company shares that the introduced innovations and technological solutions in production in recent years have already resulted in a permanent downward trend – water consumption has been reduced by more than 20% compared to 2016. The introduction of these and other innovations in the process of brewing at the Haskovo Brewery elevates it to the honorable first place in the annual ranking of Molson Coors breweries worldwide for 2022.
