Aware of the importance of sustainable development for both present and future generations and the well-being of the planet, Axian has been involved in the energy transition and the reduction of its carbone footprint for several years. This desire to act quickly and effectively is reflected by projects carried out by its companies Électricité de Madagascar (EDM), Jovena Madagascar, and its joint venture Green Energy Solution (GES).

Today Axian confirms this commitment by becoming the first Group in Madagascar to have a head office that operates 100% on solar energy.

Since October 17, the four building in the Galaxy area have been powered by 2200 m² of solar panel the equivalent power of 410KwC. It spares the emission of more than 200 tons of CO2, i.e. the storage capacity of 10,000 trees or a 10-hectare forest *.

The engineering work pursued by Green Energy Solution (GES) has enabled the launch of this large-scale project, which benefits not only Axian, but also other companies in the powered buildings.

A STRONG DESIRE TO REDUCE DEPENDENCE ON FOSSIL FUELS AND CO2 EMISSIONS

Axian is committed to sustainably transforming its consumption patterns by adopting «active» strategies, acting directly to reduce the group’s carbon footprint.

Photovoltaic solar energy is one of the most sustainable forms of energy produced today. The installation of this solar field in the zone truly reflects the Group’s commitment to get deeper into the energy transition and promote more sustainable consumption patterns.

It is an important step for Axian and Madagascar: demonstrating the feasibility of such facilities will pave the way for other large-scale projects on the large island. It stands as an example for other companies and industries wishing to reduce their environmental impact with green solutions.
