How we are helping to change the world for the better

 

 At TBL Plc we pride ourselves on being a company that brews high-quality beer from the best possible natural ingredients, which are locally sourced and hence provide sustainable job opportunities across the value and supply chains.

 

 Embedding sustainability, social impact in our communities and good governance is not only good for our business, it’s the foundation of our company and our purpose, which seeks to create a future with more cheers.

CLIMATE ACTION

 

 Working towards a shared long-term climate vision pushes us forward, while short-term goals drive innovation and decarbonisation today. Focusing on additionality and proximity accelerates the energy transition.

 

Renewable energy is finding an increasingly larger foothold in the global energy market because of the need to move away from fossil fuels linked to global warming, and the fact that these energy sources are becoming more cost competitive. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), renewables accounted for almost two-thirds of net new power capacity around the world in 2016. This growth is expected to continue, with the IEA forecasting that renewable electricity capacity will expand by 43% by 2022. We are committed to helping drive positive change and playing a leading role in the battle against climate change by purchasing energy way more sustainably.

 

Furthermore, climate change is a key SDG for the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania, which is combating climate change effects as an integral part of the United Republic of Tanzania’s environmental policy, as pointed out by the 2019 Voluntary National Review (VNR). The financing needed to address current climate risks, reduce future impacts, and build national resilience has been estimated by the National Climate Change Strategy (2012) to be USD 500 million per year, which could rise to USD 1 billion per year by 2030.

WHAT IS OUR 2025 GOAL?

Our goal is 100% of our purchased electricity comes from renewable sources and that carbon emissions are reduced by 25% across our value chain. At TBL Plc, we are investing in initiatives that will achieve our climate action goals, where our approach to addressing climate change is focused on key activities in our operations and across our value chain. Actively decarbonizing our global operations, including our breweries and our vertical operations that produce packaging and brewing materials by reducing energy consumption and implementing renewable electricity and heat solutions (either through on-site generation or through virtual power purchase agreements)

Engaging with value chain partners to reduce emissions in key categories, including:

Agriculture: increase yield through new, more resilient crop varieties; work with farmers on nutrient management and optimized fertilizer application; introduce nature-based solutions across our agricultural supply chain for carbon removal. Brewing operations, increase efficiency in brewing processes; implement renewable electricity and heat solutions; achieve near-zero to landfill production waste in brewing operations. Packaging, increase recycled content; scale low-carbon packaging solutions; implement light weighting solutions. Logistics, continue load optimization, routing efficiency and mode switch; implement alternative fuel trucks. Product cooling, implement more efficient refrigeration with innovative cooling solutions, scale renewable electricity across our retailers globally. End of product life, promote local recycling and reduce waste through use of recycled content and light weighting initiatives in packaging
