We are pioneers in cogeneration in Mauritius, operating a 41MW biomass/coal power plant which supplies steam and electricity to our milling operations and the national grid. As an Independent Power Producer (IPP), we export an annual average of 170 GWh of electricity to the Central Electricity Board. Over half of our production is derived from renewable sources like bagasse and cane trash. We are planning to develop a more efficient power plant to replace our existing facility that will contribute to the national goal of supplying 40% of the local electricity needs from renewable sources by 2030.
Solar (Helios)
We have a long-standing commitment to green energy production. We own 49% of Helios Beau Champ, which operates a 9MW photovoltaic farm since 2018 and exports its average annual production of 16GWh to the national grid. We are looking forward to more investments in this sector.
