Enoc Group continues to drive sustainable development, participates in Earth Hour 2024

DUBAI / WAM

Aligned with its global and local sustainable development targets, Enoc Group once again showcased its commitment towards sustainability and energy efficiency by supporting “Earth Hour 2024: The Biggest Hour for Earth”.
Joining millions of people in the UAE and around the world to encourage collective action towards climate change, Enoc switched off non-essential lights at its headquarters and operational facilities on March 23 from 8.30PM to 9.30PM. All service station forecourts, convenience stores, quick oil change, carwash areas and pylon signs remained dark for an hour.
Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO, Enoc, said: “Enoc Group is committed to promoting sustainable development initiatives to drive positive change towards the preservation of our environment and the planet. We are dedicated to raising awareness on the importance of optimising energy consumption and will continue to encourage our staff as well as the wider community to minimise environmental impact and practice energy conservation.”
Highlighting the continued focus on environmental, energy and resource management best practices, in Earth Hour 2024, ENOC saved a total of 408 MWh of electricity, which is equivalent to 1,944 kg of CO2 emissions.
ENOC’s E&RM initiatives from 2014 to 2023 have also led to a decrease in specific energy consumption by 23 percent (from 0.67 GJ/ton to 0.516 GJ/ton), and increase in water recycling from 2 percent to 24.86 percent, through initiatives such as waste heat recovery projects in the refinery, propane sphere projects at the MTBE facility, solar PV implementation at service stations, rooftop solar at sites, and various energy and water conservation and optimisation projects.
