Conservation of Energy & Technology Absorption

During FY 2025–26, Refex's energy consumption profile reflects the nature of its diversified business operations, spanning refrigerant manufacturing, fly ash management, clean energy solutions, mobility services, and wind turbine manufacturing through its subsidiary operations. The Company's activities are not classified as energy-intensive under the Energy Conservation Act, 2001, and no major energy-intensive manufacturing processes were undertaken during the reporting period. Nevertheless, the Company maintains a disciplined approach to energy monitoring and optimisation across all operational segments, recognising that responsible energy management is central to its long-term sustainability commitments. The primary energy-consuming segment within the Company's direct operations is fleet transportation, specifically the heavy-haulage logistics fleet that supports the ash management and bulk materials handling businesses. Diesel remains the principal fuel for this segment, given the nature of long-distance bulk freight operations. Acknowledging this dependency, the Company has pursued a structured and multi-pronged strategy to progressively reduce per-unit fuel consumption and associated emissions. During FY 2025–26, several targeted initiatives were implemented to this end. Optimised route planning and algorithm-assisted dispatch protocols were deployed to minimise empty running, reduce trip turnaround times, and maximise load utilisation per vehicle movement, directly reducing fuel consumed per tonne of freight transported. Complementing this, GPS-enabled telematics systems were integrated across the entire fleet, enabling real-time visibility into route adherence, idling patterns, speed behaviour, and fuel consumption benchmarks, allowing fleet managers to enforce corrective action with precision and accountability. The Company also significantly accelerated the deployment of BS-VI-compliant heavy haulage vehicles, which deliver materially superior fuel efficiency and emit substantially lower levels of particulate matter and nitrogen oxides compared to older engine standards. As of March 31, 2026, the Company operated approximately 123 heavy haulage vehicles, of which approximately 90% (around 111 vehicles) are BS-VI compliant, placing the Company among the more progressive operators in the bulk logistics segment in India. Alongside fleet modernisation, strengthened internal controls, including tamper-proof fuel sensors, driver accountability protocols, and periodic fuel audits, were institutionalised to prevent fuel pilferage. Periodic driver training programmes on fuel-efficient driving habits, including smooth acceleration, optimal speed range adherence, and engine braking, further contributed to measurable improvements in overall fleet fuel economy. On the renewable energy front, the Company has made meaningful investments at both its manufacturing facility and corporate offices. The refrigerant manufacturing facility at Thiruporur, Tamil Nadu, operates entirely on solar power, making it effectively energy self-sufficient for its operational requirements, while also exporting surplus power to the grid. At the corporate level, a 43 kWp rooftop solar photovoltaic plant at the Chennai office is projected to generate approximately 51,600 kWh of clean electricity annually, resulting in an estimated avoidance of 37.5 MTCORs.e per year and approximately 937.5 MTCORs.e over its lifecycle.

Both corporate office premises in Chennai are equipped with Variable Frequency Drive (VFD)-based air conditioning systems, enabling demand-responsive energy usage and delivering energy savings in the range of 20–40%, while also extending equipment lifespan and reducing maintenance requirements. These smart infrastructure upgrades reflect a holistic approach to energy efficiency across manufacturing, logistics, and administrative functions. A key strategic driver of the Company's clean energy transition is Refex Green Mobility Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary focused on clean urban mobility solutions. During FY 2025–26, the subsidiary expanded its fleet by inducting 182 electric vehicles and 15 CNG-petrol vehicles, adding a total of 197 vehicles. This expansion directly reduces reliance on fossil fuel-based transportation and contributes to lower emissions, improved urban air quality, and reduced noise pollution. The inclusion of CNG vehicles reflects a pragmatic transition strategy in regions where EV infrastructure is still evolving. The initiative aligns with the Government of India's FAME II policy and supports the national goal of achieving 30% EV penetration by 2030. In addition, the Company's subsidiary engaged in wind turbine manufacturing continued to adopt environmentally responsible and sustainable operational practices. As part of its circular economy initiatives, refurbished laptops and desktops were procured and deployed, extending the lifecycle of electronic equipment and reducing electronic waste. The Company also promoted the reduction of single-use plastics across office operations by encouraging the use of reusable glass bottles and paper-based documentation systems. Further strengthening its resource efficiency initiatives, the subsidiary is in the process of implementing SAP S/4 HANA Public Cloud across operations. This digital transformation is expected to significantly reduce manual printing requirements for approvals, records management, and documentation processes, thereby lowering paper consumption and supporting energy conservation. At its Silvassa manufacturing facility, an authorised vendor has been engaged for the collection, handling, and safe disposal of hazardous waste, ensuring compliance with environmental regulations and adherence to responsible waste management practices. Collectively, these initiatives across the Company contributed to responsible resource utilisation, waste reduction, improved operational efficiency, and the strengthening of environmentally sustainable workplace practices. Taken together, the Company's energy management and sustainability initiatives across FY 2025–26, spanning fleet modernisation, digital optimisation, renewable energy adoption, clean mobility expansion, circular economy practices, and responsible waste management, constitute a cohesive and strategically integrated response to contemporary energy and environmental challenges. These initiatives are aligned with Refex's Sustainability Vision 2035, which includes achieving carbon neutrality, becoming water positive, advancing circular economy practices, and sourcing 50% of total energy from renewable sources across all companies. This vision continues to guide the Company's long-term commitment to building a sustainable, future-ready enterprise.
