Action Lines
Through strategic actions, both companies will jointly promote integrated infrastructure solutions for photovoltaic solar energy generation and other technologies based on clean energy, including ABB chargers for electric vehicles.
They also propose projects such as solar panels and energy storage systems, which SOLFIUM will integrate with those partners that are part of the ABB ecosystem interested in implementing energy savings and efficiency.
Within the framework of this cooperation, SOLFIUM, through its disruptive model in decarbonization of value chains, will support ABB in its internal objectives of carbon neutrality and corporate social responsibility, promoting solar energy in its offices and industrial plants, as well as with its employees, customers, suppliers and other partners in Mexico.
Additionally, this collaboration includes multiple other projects focused on sustainability that will bring much added value to Mexican society.
General Roadmap
Magaña assured that this agreement is aligned with ABB‘s 2030 sustainability strategy of actively contributing to a more sustainable world, leading by example in its own operations, and partnering with customers and suppliers to enable a low-carbon society, preserve resources, and promote social progress.
For his part, Juan Osuna expressed his motivation for a partnership that will accelerate the decarbonization of cities in Mexico.
“Through this collaboration, we will be working together with ABB to make sense of the transition to electric vehicles, and to ensure that they are charged with totally renewable and clean energy such as solar power,” he said.
