The project is fully aligned with Total\u2019s ambition to become the responsible energy major and its commitment to developing solar power.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The solar-powered stations represent Total\u2019s commitment towards energizing communities and fostering sustainable development. It also illustrates the company\u2019s dedication towards ensuring environmental sustainability, innovation, and premium customer service\u2019 said the Managing Director of Total Petroleum Ghana Limited, Eric Fanchini on the occasion of the project. <\/p>\n<p>In addition to the solar station, the company introduced solar kiosks to selected service stations in Accra in 2018 to provide customers with easy access to phone charging and WIFI connection.<\/p>\n<p>The wave of renewable energy started in 2015 with the introduction of 100% Total solar lamps which are accessible at all TOTAL service station shops nationwide.<\/p>\n<p>Since Total Petroleum Ghana Limited inaugurated its three solar powered service stations, namely, TOTAL Tema Main Harbour, TOTAL Takoradi Airport Junction and TOTAL Miles 4 in Kumasi, it has been able to reduce its operation cost thus decreasing the pressure on the local grid and exploring the potential of solar energy.<\/p>\n<p>The four solar-powered stations were constructed and maintained by local engineers and solar experts.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018As a responsible industrial player, Total takes action to develop new energies that are efficient and environmentally friendly, and it is our resolve to contribute to local development and environmental sustainability. This is equally central to the modernization of our service stations to bring convenience and quality products and services to customers\u2019 said Eric Fanchini.<\/p>\n<p><b>Promoting a sustainable environment<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The TOTAL Korle Bu solar-powered station is an integral part of efforts to reinforce Total\u2019s network identity with a resolutely contemporary image and installations that are more energy- efficient and outlets that blend harmoniously into the environment.<\/p>\n<p>The photovoltaic panels of 18.5 kWp on its forecourt roof convert the sun&#8217;s rays into electricity. This electricity is used to supply renewable energy to power the entire service station.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Its eco-friendly design, transparent canopy, earthy and neutral color tones, and green area creates a warm and welcoming environment for our esteemed customers. Whether customers fuel, service or wash their cars or simply get cold drinks at its Caf\u00e9 Bonjour shop, they are partnering with us to build a more sustainable environment. <\/p>\n<p>The establishment of this solar- powered service station depicts Total\u2019s dedication to continuous improvement and the establishment of an identity related to constant innovation that sets us apart in the downstream petroleum sector. We plan to roll out other solar-powered service stations in the nearest future,\u2019 Eric Fanchini added.<\/p>\n<p><b>About Total Petroleum Ghana Limited<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Established in 1951, Total Petroleum Ghana Limited is a locally listed oil marketing company with over 4700 Ghanaian shareholders.
