PhosAgro announced that it will increase the use of renewable energy for production of agrochemical products from 2021 after the Apatit mining and beneficiation plant (the Kirov branch of JSC Apatit) signed a contract for the supply of hydroelectric power with TGC-1. The 100MW contracted mean that more than 60% of the beneficiation plant's output will be produced using green electricity. In December 2020, PhosAgro's Board of Directors approved a climate strategy. The core element of this strategy is continued work to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, including indirect emissions that are generated during the production of electricity consumed by the company's production facilities. As part of this climate strategy, a low-carbon transition plan has been adopted, which includes technical, technological and organisational measures that are being developed and implemented. PhosAgro actively implements energy-efficient green technologies at its enterprises. This includes employing frequency converters in production complexes, which reduce the power consumed by electric motors and energy loss when starting engines. PhosAgro is also undertaking a major project in the field of energy efficiency in constructing a number heat energy converters to generate electricity at sulfuric acid plants. Thanks to this, the company's chemical production facilities in Cherepovets and Balakovo generate 60-80% of the energy they require on site. A similar power plant is currently being planned and designed for construction in Volkhov as part of an investment project to build a new production facility there. Aside from this, LED lighting is also widely used at the group's enterprises, which has reduced lighting costs by 2-2.5 times, as well as the carbon footprint of the company's finished products. Last year, apatite-nepheline processing plant No.3 (ANOF-3) transferred to energy-efficient lighting, and in 2021 a similar project will be implemented at ANOF-2.
