NetPMD re-certifies as a Carbon Neutral Organization

NetPMD (Design & Integration), a specialist in the telecommunications industry, has achieved their net-zero carbon neutral accreditation by offsetting the unavoidable emissions from 2023.  

NetPMD offers an end-to-end service with fiber network design, installation, and integration services. NetPMD is connecting communities and enabling smart cities to operate optimally in the modern world.   

Carbon Footprint Ltd, chosen emissions auditing partner of NetPMD released their report in July 2024 regarding the total emissions of the business throughout the duration of 2023. This report was highly detailed and covered all operations and initiatives within the business, including on-site, off-site, and market-based emissions. Carbon Footprint also proposed key suggestions for helping NetPMD to reduce their total emissions year-on-year for them to become naturally carbon neutral.  

As NetPMD continues to experience rapid growth, they are heavily focused on ensuring that its emissions are not increasing with the size of the business. NetPMD was awarded Carbon Neutral Organization Certification by offsetting the total tons of carbon generated during the year through its support of high-quality, certified carbon offsetting projects. Whilst working to reduce emissions, NetPMD are committed to offsetting any existing current emissions by investing financially in five ongoing projects that are designed to reduce emissions and increase green-energy production.   

• Solar Power Project in India
  • The project involves installation and operation of a solar power project in the village of Hoti in Medak, in the state of Telangana and the Sengottai in Virudhunagar in Tamil Nadu. The purpose of the project activity is to generate power using renewable energy (solar energy) which will feed into the power generated to the state grid in India.  

• Hydro Electric Power Plant in Turkey
  • The Arca Hydroelectricity Power Plant (HEPP) is constructed on the Solakl River, downstream of the Arca Weir. The water is regulated upstream by Arca weir, which has been constructed at the 51.50 m thalweg elevation of Solakl River. The construction and operation of the Arca Hydroelectric Power Plant will be delaying the addition of conventional fossil fuel powered plants to the Turkish National Electricity Grid. . 

• Wind Energy Facility in South Africa
  • The wind farm is located in the Pixley Ka Seme District close to the town of De Aar in the Northern Cape Province of the RSA, approximately 30 km northeast of the Longyuan Mulilo De Aar Maanhaarberg Wind Energy Facility. The purpose of this project is to supply the wind-generated electricity to the grid of the Republic of South Africa (RSA).  

• Methane Gas Capture and Electricity Production in Bulgaria
  • The project is both a methane emissions reduction and energy production project. Methane produced in Kubratovo wastewater treatment plant is captured in common methane tanks and then supplied to the installed Combines Heat and Power (CHP) gas engines for electricity and heat production, which in turn substitutes both the plant’s electricity purchases from the grid and fossil fuel usage. The main purpose is to transform the existing low tech sludge treatment process that existed before implementation of the project. 

• Tree Planting in Kenya
  • This project provides an opportunity to plant trees in Kenya’s Great Rift Valley. Over the last ten years, the project in Kenya has planted over 200,000 trees and rehabilitated over 160 hectares of the forest helping in restoring the water catchment ecosystem function of the forest. The project is strongly focused on empowering women, who make up over 50% of the project team. 

All the selected projects meet either the Gold Standard or Verified Carbon Standard, two of the highest international standards for carbon credits, and comply with the stringent requirements of the Quality Assurance Standard (QAS) for Carbon Offsetting.
