    Sinochem New Network News BASF announced on September 7 that its six production bases in Shanghai, Jiangsu and Guangdong are participating in the direct purchase of renewable energy power
    .


    As the largest purchaser in the Yangtze River Delta region and the second largest purchaser in the Pearl River Delta region in this green power transaction, BASF’s first plan is to cooperate with a number of energy producers to purchase a total of approximately 440,000 MWh by 2025.

    , Ltd.
    , BASF Chemical Co.
    , Ltd.
    , Shanghai BASF Polyurethane Co.
    , Ltd.
