Driving a Sustainable Future

Environmental Stewardship:

At Exide, we are committed to environmental stewardship by minimizing our ecological footprint across operations. Our facilities now draw 24%+ of electricity from renewable sources - solar (95 MWp+) and wind (11.7 MW), helping us avoid 93,000+ tCO2e in emissions this year alone.

Through our recycling subsidiary, Chloride Metals Ltd., ~79% of the lead & alloys and ~16% of the plastics used in production come from recycled material, reducing our dependence on primary inputs.

We continue transforming our logistics footprint too, with 26% of last-mile deliveries now EV-based and LNG introduced in primary logistics.

Together, these efforts have driven a 15.6% reduction in our Scope 1+2 emissions intensity this year, as we advance toward our commitment of Net Zero by 2050.

Social Responsibility

At Exide, we cultivate lasting and mutually beneficial relationships with our employees, workers, value chain partners, and communities at large. We foster open communication and trust, prioritize employee well-being through a safe and healthy work environment that encourages growth, and adhere to the highest ethical standards in all our business dealings, ensuring responsible sourcing and transparent operations. We actively engage with our communities, supporting local initiatives and championing positive social impact. Through these efforts, in FY 2025-26 we impacted 4.05 lakh+ primary beneficiaries across our CSR themes, a 7.7% YoY increase, reinforcing our commitment to sustainable, positive impact for all those we serve.
