E.ON

A new report claims the next decade is vital in the journey to net zero and warns the UK is not on track

It has committed to becoming carbon-neutral by 2040 and to keep global warming levels at 1.5°C

Its project for E.ON, which sought to achieve a more sustainable energy distribution network without greenhouse gases, has been awarded in the “Smart Grid” category

A space equivalent to 10,000 football pitches is available on the rooftops of supermarkets, logistics halls and retailers – it could host an estimated capacity of 6,750MW

The 12MW project is installed on the roofs of two logistics centres at the car manufacturer’s factory in Hungary

Dixons Carphone, E.ON, Heathrow, Lime and SSE are also members of the group that urges government to boost EV charging infrastructure

E.ON and Nissan have deployed 20 vehicle-to-grid chargers to test how EVs can support the UK grid, save money and reduce carbon emission for companies

In the world of the “better normal”, resilience, adaptability and data have been thrown into the spotlight, highlighting how important they are to businesses

That’s the suggestion from Make UK and E.ON, which have said prior to the coronavirus lockdown, 40% of these businesses reported increased profit margins and 30% saw increased competitiveness as a result

The funds will be spent to speed up electrification, particularly in the transport and heating sectors
