Our company produces specialty chemicals and industrial minerals for use in several large industries, such as glass, cement, and detergent, and also for consumers in food and medicine. Energy is the major input during our production process, accounting for around 40 percent of the cost of the production. We need high temperatures to be able to make the production more efficient, and our main energy source is natural gas during the production process. Over the past five years, natural gas prices have more than doubled, creating a huge pressure on our profit margins. Natural gas is regulated in our operating country and the government changes the prices quarterly based on currency movements and oil prices. So there was a situation where our shared price tumbled after increases in natural gas prices, and we've seen a significant pressure from the investors and Board of Directors. In order to cope with this, we made a feasibility study of an investment to be able to switch our energy source from natural gas to coal. Following this study, we realized that the energy cost of the company will come down by 30 percent following the realization of the investment. However, at the same time, this would automatically result in a less sustainable method of production, more production-based, and of course, an increase in carbon emissions. There was a huge pressure on me as the finance managers from the institution and the individual investors for the continuous distribution of large number of dividends. So I was caught between meeting the expectations of the shareholders and reaching the EU Sustainable Development Goals. In the end, I supported this investment, including additional filters and the rehabilitation system, which were in line with the EU regulations. We switched our main energy source from natural gas to coal with some additional filtration systems. As a result, our profit share increased by 40 percent after the completion of the investment. We became a more profitable, solid, a strong company from a financial perspective. The shareholders were more satisfied and we generated a significant amount of cash for the future investments. So now I think, how would it have been possible to reach this position if we had chosen to operate in a more sustainable way and didn't make the switch from the natural gas to coal? We had one of the most efficient factories in Europe, and at the same time, our carbon emissions were very below the standard levels enforced through EU policies. So I feel skeptical about well-known sustainable practices and the idea that companies are giving up their earnings, and not looking to reach the maximum amount of profit they could achieve. In my opinion, corporates should aim to maximize their earnings, and they should use their accumulated earnings for growth. Operating to full potential and generating higher profit are the true essence of sustainable practices.
