Depots and offices owned by Electricity North West are now being powered by renewable energy generated from Walney Wind Farm off the coast of Cumbria.
The switch has helped Electricity North West take a significant step towards becoming carbon neutral itself, in line with its ‘Leading the North West to Zero Carbon’ plan.
Helen Boyle, strategic decarbonisation manager, at Electricity North West, said: “We’ve set a target as a business to become carbon neutral by 2038 in line with Greater Manchester. While it’s an ambitious target, we know it can be achieved, and by switching to 100% renewable electricity, it certainly helps us take a huge step in the right direction.”
