Dairy sector, due to lower sanction load, faces high commercial tariff and is zero-rated which further adds to input costs. With slight design reorientation of sheds and utilization of land, solar installations can significantly help lower energy costs.
Dada, one of the pioneers in the dairy industry, converted to renewables to reduce their energy costs by up to 15% and secure an uninterrupted energy supply. They partnered with Reon to install a 1 MW Solar PV Plant at Dada Dairies and another 1 MW at Dada Enterprises to hedge their energy rates for the next 25 years.
The project uses net-metering to avail utility bill credits in case of excess supply and generates a combined 2750 MWh of approximate energy annually.

In 2018, Matco Foods made a landmark decision by partnering with Reon to take the first steps towards a sustainable future. With the installation of a 413 kW solar power project at its facility, Matco Foods set out to reduce its reliance on non-renewable power sources and secure a backup source of energy for its operations.
This rooftop system, one of Reon’s most challenging installations in the South region and the first of its kind for a food brand, produces a staggering 615,039 kWh of energy annually. With this renewable source of energy, Matco Foods is able to offset carbon emissions by 378.2 tonnes, equivalent to planting 15,376 trees.
This project marks a pivotal moment in Matco Foods’ journey towards a greener future and serves as a testament to Reon’s engineering prowess and commitment to creating sustainable solutions.

Reon Energy joined forces with Tapal Tea, one of Pakistan’s most renowned tea brands, to embark on a journey towards a greener future. Tapal Tea chose to lead by example and make a tangible impact on the environment by partnering with Reon for the installation of an on-grid solar system.
The initial project, sizing 125 kW, was installed at their rooftop in Korangi and was soon followed by an even larger project of 253 kW. Despite the challenges posed by the partial lockdown during the installation phase, the team at Reon rose to the occasion and successfully delivered the project, with strict adherence to Covid-19 protocols for employee welfare.
The plant features state-of-the-art 440W modules mounted on a Z-support structure, and is expected to generate 430 MWh of energy annually, reducing carbon emissions by 265 tonnes. The majority of the energy generated is consumed in the tea manufacturing process, with the excess units traded off through net metering.
This project is a testament to Tapal Tea’s commitment to sustainability and a shining example of the incredible things that can be achieved when innovative companies and renewable energy experts join forces.
