Operations in Pakistan
In 2021, HinoPak Motors signed a solar power purchase agreement with UAE-based solar energy company, Yellow Door Energy. The agreement aimed to reduce the company's reliance on grid power and offset approximately 15% of its energy consumption. Yellow Door Energy installed a 4.4 MW solar power system at HinoPak Motors' manufacturing plant in Karachi, which is expected to generate 6.8 million kWh of clean energy annually and reduce carbon emissions by approximately 5,200 tons per year. HinoPak Motors' sustainability efforts include reducing its carbon footprint and increasing energy efficiency.{{Cite web |last=Content |first=Sponsored |date=2022-10-13 |title=Hinopak Motors signs solar power purchase agreement with Yellow Door Energy |url=https://www.brecorder.com/news/40202908 |access-date=2023-03-13 |website=Brecorder |language=en}}
Later in 2021, HinoPak announced a profit of Rs. 358 million. This is a significant improvement compared to the previous year when the company reported a loss of Rs. 713 million.
