PepsiCo Türkiye Launches First Biomethanization Facility in Manisa to Reach Zero Emission Goal

PepsiCo announced the opening of its new Biomethanization Facility with a ceremony at its Manisa Plant in Türkiye. The facility is the first of its kind in Türkiye and among PepsiCo’s operating countries.

The new facility will convert organic waste from the plant’s production lines into biomethane, a renewable gas that can be used to substitute for natural gas, which will help PepsiCo reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by up to 55,000 trees worth annually. Besides, the facility and solar panels will contribute to PepsiCo’s commitment to reaching “Zero Waste” and “Zero Emission” by meeting approximately 30% of the plant’s natural gas needs. “As PepsiCo Türkiye, We are proud to have invested over 350 million TL in renewable energy resources, on the 100th anniversary of our Republic” said Evrim Şen, General Manager of PepsiCo Türkiye.
