Dynea Pakistan Limited, a major chemical manufacturer, has announced plans to develop a 1.1MW captive wind power project in Hub, Balochistan. The project, approved by the company’s board of directors, is designed to support Dynea’s long-term sustainability goals and reduce dependence on conventional electricity sources. The project is pending regulatory approvals and final contract arrangements.
The company said that the Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) agreement is currently being finalized, signaling steady progress toward implementation. This initiative aligns with a broader trend in Pakistan, where many industrial firms are adopting renewable energy to lower operational costs and environmental impact. Globally, renewable energy capacity surged by 15.1% last year, reaching 4.5 terawatts, with China leading the charge.
Pakistan is also witnessing rapid growth in renewable energy projects. Earlier this year, Thatta Cement Company completed a 4.8MW wind power installation, increasing its total renewable capacity to 9.8MW. Dynea’s move will further add to this growing momentum, supporting Pakistan’s energy diversification and sustainability ambitions.
In addition to the wind power project, Dynea announced the launch of a new product category in its resin division. The company will start commercial production and sales of resin additives and PVA white glue using existing facilities. The expansion requires minimal capital expenditure, limited to storage and health, safety, and environment (HSE) upgrades.
Established in 1982, Dynea Pakistan manufactures key chemicals such as formaldehyde and urea/melamine formaldehyde molding compounds. The company’s recent projects demonstrate its commitment to innovation, sustainable growth, and environmental responsibility in Pakistan’s evolving industrial landscape.
