npower - HANSON’S GRAVEL GOES GREEN
Hanson switches on to npower green energy in new
supply deal
Construction materials supplier Hanson Aggregates has
switched on to energy from renewable sources this month
in a deal with npower business. The contract sees the
firm receive 10 Gigawatts of electricity generated by
sources including wind, water, bio-fuels and solar.
Two sand and gravel quarries in Essex and an aggregates
terminal on the Thames at Dagenham will be supplied.
Hanson also procures energy under a flexible supply
agreement which gives access to the wholesale traded
power market and enables the company to purchase blocks
of power over a period of time at competitive prices.
“This is an important move in reducing the carbon
outputs generated in aggregates production,” said
Hanson’s south east Operations Director, Ian Cross. “It
supports our commitment to combat climate change and to
operate sustainably.”
