Mr Hisashi Takeuchi, Managing Director & CEO of Maruti Suzuki India Limited, said, 鈥淎ligned with Suzuki Motor Corporation鈥檚 Environment Vision 2050 and the Government of India鈥檚 renewable energy goals, we are systematically enhancing the use of clean energy in our operations. As we scale production to four million units, our energy practices will evolve accordingly.鈥�
He emphasised that the latest solar expansion represents a vital step towards building a sustainable energy ecosystem and supports Maruti Suzuki鈥檚 broader environmental vision. The company's initiatives contribute to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #7, which focuses on affordable and clean energy.
