LYB Dalian APS Plant to Run Fully on 100% Renewable Electricity
Read MoreHide Full Article
LyondellBasell Industries N.V. (LYB - Free Report) secured a one-year agreement to power its Dalian, China, manufacturing facility fully with 100% renewable electricity in 2025. This becomes the first LYB Advanced Polymer Solutions (APS) plant in Asia to operate entirely on renewable energy.
The Dalian site, set up in 2015, plays a crucial role in the automotive industry, supplying high-performance materials for bumpers, instrument panels, structural parts and body panels.
This milestone will help reduce carbon emissions by nearly 5,000 tons of CO2 in 2025. This will be equivalent to removing approximately 1,000 passenger cars from the road for a year. This transition was supported through China’s Green Electricity Transaction program, which helps LYB secure renewable electricity at a cost lower than non-green sources, thus demonstrating how sustainable solutions can also be cost-effective.
The power mix utilized in the Dalian facility consists primarily of wind and solar photovoltaics supporting the Chinese automotive industry’s efforts to lower product carbon footprint (PCF). In this way, LYB is driving a more sustainable future.
LYB stock has lost 43.4% over the past year compared with the 26.8% decline in the industry.
