MFC Ropes in X-NOOR to Reduce its Carbon Footprint
X-NOOR, a joint venture between X-ELIO and DUTCO have announced an agreement with Modern Freight Company (MFC) to provide renewable energy at MFC’s Logistics Park and Logistics Center in Dubai, for the next 20 years. The collaboration highlights both company’s efforts towards a greener future with a rooftop solar PV installation expected to produce around 18 GWh of energy over 20 years.
Through this installation, the warehouse will be powered by 100% renewable energy, which will significantly reduce CO2 consumption compared to the previous source. Jesus Gutierrez, the General Manager of X-NOOR, said of the company’s expansion efforts, “We are thrilled to expand our operations and bring our innovative solar solutions to more projects across the region. We look forward to forging new partnerships and contributing to the region’s renewable energy goals with the same passion and dedication that has driven our success in the Middle East.”
Meanwhile, Laurance Langdon, General Manager of Modern Freight Company emphasised, “At MFC, we recognise the importance of adopting sustainable and environmentally friendly business practices. The partnership with X-NOOR will allow us to utilise their expertise to maximise the generation of clean energy ensuring we continue to minimise our carbon footprint and offer a net zero facility for our customers.”
