05 Mars 2025 - 3:50PM
Barcelona, 05 March 2025: VEON Ltd. (Nasdaq:
VEON), a global digital operator (“VEON” or the “Group”), today
marked the agreement between Jazz, its digital operator in
Pakistan, and Huawei to deploy solar power in Jazz’s 1,000 sites
across Pakistan.
The solarization of the sites, powered by the iSolar technology
of Huawei, will be completed within the coming months, facilitating
Jazz’s transition to sustainable telecom network infrastructure
with green energy. The initiative will support an energy cost
reduction of up to 96% at the sites where the technology will be
implemented.
Integrating sustainable energy solutions,
including the iSolar project, supports Jazz’s commitment to
net-zero carbon target by 2050.
Aamir Ibrahim, CEO of Jazz
said: “We are dedicated to delivering an ideal experience
for our customers while mitigating our environmental footprint. The
deployment of iSolar sites takes us further in our sustainability
journey, enabling us to provide reliable connectivity powered by
renewable energy to our customers. This initiative demonstrates our
commitment to taking the steps that are not only good for business
but also good for the planet, contributing to responsible use of
energy resources in Pakistan.”
Phillip Gan, President of Huawei
Middle East and Central Asia Region of Huawei added, “We
are proud to partner with VEON and Jazz on the iSolar project,
setting a new benchmark for green energy adoption in telecom
industry. This initiative is another example of our long-term
strategic cooperation to supporting the telecommunications industry
in driving a more sustainable digital transformation. We are happy
to contribute to VEON’s and Jazz’s sustainability vision with this
partnership.”
Beyond the immediate environmental and
operational benefits, the success of deploying Jazz iSolar is
expected to serve as a scalable model for future expansion,
offering a replicable framework that can be extended.
