TD SYNNEX claims to be switching to green energy at its Magna Park warehouse at Lutterworth from the start of the new financial year.
The move means that – along with the planned relocation of the Basingstoke office next month – from January 2023 more than 90 per cent of the electricity consumed by TD SYNNEX in the UK will be coming from renewable sources. The outfit’s Warrington office was already using renewable sources and the Basingstoke office will move to green power when it is relocated to a nearby, more energy-efficient building in January 2023. This facility also has over 500 solar panels on the roof.
TD SYNNEX is in negotiation with the owners of its Bracknell location to convert to green energy there by the end of 2023.
Mick Gilmore, facilities manager, said: “It’s great news that Magna Park has switched over to green power and it means that by January 2023 three of our four locations will be on renewable energy. That’s a big step forward and will mean 90 percent-plus of the electricity we use will be from renewable sources. We are pleased to have made so much progress this quickly. While converting to green energy means we do incur some additional cost, we had no hesitation in making this change as soon as possible.”
