SUBSIDIARIES of a local energy supplier have set a record for businesses using renewable power.
Drax Group B2B's retail businesses, Opus Energy and Haven Power, have provided more than 350,000 UK business sites with 100 per cent renewable electricity, making them the UK's largest suppliers.
Drax Retail CEO, Jonathan Kini, said suppliers have a responsibility to encourage and support sustainability: "Every business is different, but it seems most want to be more sustainable and play a part in reaching our climate targets - they just need us, the suppliers, to help them achieve these aspirations."
"By making renewable electricity the standard, businesses become instantly a lot more sustainable, which allows us to move the conversation with our customers on to talking about other steps they can take, such as reducing their energy consumption, generating their own renewable power or even using batteries."
