Investments in renewable energy
Published on 9/4/2025
For several years now, SILAB has been committed to energy transition by integrating sustainable solutions at various levels.
100% green electricity
Since 2018, SILAB has chosen to subscribe to the Renewable Energy option for its electricity contract. This approach ensures that its electricity consumption results in an equivalent amount of electricity produced from renewable sources.
This voluntary approach is part of a long-term strategy aimed at prioritizing more environmentally friendly energy sources, while supporting the site's industrial growth.
A transition to biogas
In line with this approach, SILAB has been committed since 2024 to a gradual transition to biogas, an energy source derived from the recovery of organic matter.
This choice further increases the share of renewable energy in its overall energy consumption, which will reach 48% in 2024.
Local solar energy production
SILAB's internal training center is a good example of energy self-sufficiency: it is equipped with 334 double-sided photovoltaic panels that will cover 68% of the building's electricity consumption in 2024.
The energy produced is used for self-consumption.
