Nissan Motor India drives sustainability on World Environment Day

Nissan Motor India marked World Environment Day by installing solar power systems at seven dealerships across India, enabling 100% clean energy for workshop and showroom operations, with surplus energy fed back to the grid.

To mark World Environment Day, Nissan Motor India has rolled out a series of eco-friendly initiatives, reinforcing its commitment to sustainability. The company has installed grid-connected solar power systems at seven dealerships across India, including Acuity Nissan (Baroda), Aarav Nissan (Mehsana), EVM Nissan (3 outlets in Kerala), Dada Nissan (Jalandhar), and Roshan Nissan (Jaipur).

These solar setups now power 100% of workshop and showroom operations, with surplus energy fed back into the grid, reducing reliance on conventional sources and promoting cleaner, greener dealership operations.

Saurabh Vatsa, Managing Director, Nissan Motor India, said, “At Nissan, we are committed to sustainability and our global environmental philosophy goes beyond short-term goals. It’s a long-term dedication to a cleaner, safer, and more inclusive future. We are focused on reducing environmental impact and minimizing resource consumption. Every step we take is guided by our vision to drive sustainable mobility and protect the world for future generations.”

Nissan will also conduct a tree-sapling plantation activity at all dealerships and workshops nationwide on 5th June. Customers will be invited over to plant a sapling each. Those saplings will be tagged with the customer’s name and vehicle number, symbolising their personal contribution to a greener tomorrow. Participants will also receive a “Green Service Certificate” and seed packets to encourage more tree planting beyond the dealership premises. Additionally, Nissan has also reduced packaging plastic usage by 15%, reinforcing its broader commitment to responsible environmental practices.
