According to a press statement, during the visit, the SAPM praised Suzuki's initiative to establish a biogas plant for vehicles, describing it as a vital step toward Pakistan's clean energy future. He emphasised that biogas represents the future for Pakistan, highlighting its potential to significantly reduce the country's dependence on costly oil and LNG imports.
The statement noted that Khan reiterated the prime minister's Uraan Vision, which focuses firmly on promoting clean and sustainable energy sources. He underlined that projects like Suzuki's biogas plant could deliver substantial economic benefits to local farmers while simultaneously protecting the environment.
