Letters of Credit have been secured with Sinoma Energy Conservation Limited to cover supply, installation, and commissioning of the facility. This progress was reported to the Pakistan Stock Exchange as significant information under the PSX Rule Book and the Securities Act of 2015, according to a statement released by the company on Thursday. The new plant will utilize waste heat from kiln and clinker cooler exhaust that would typically be lost to the environment, converting it into steam and generating power for internal use. This process will reduce the company's reliance on fossil fuels and lower its emissions intensity.

The WHR Plant is also a component of DCCL's wider modernization initiative aimed at improving overall efficiency and advancing its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) objectives.",
