Powered by an extensive solar PV extension, a nitrogen generator and storage tanks are the latest investment in a £500,000 drive by Telford's FSP as it bids to become one of the UK’s greenest supply chain partners.
Managing director Wayne Carter is spearheading the company’s move to net zero. He said: “Our carbon footprint is decreased not only because we no longer need up to three deliveries of nitrogen a week from Oxfordshire, but also the generator is being powered by our solar PV investment which currently meets 60 per cent of our demand for power across the year.
“We are generating nitrogen and building up reserves during weekend day light hours when we have surplus energy to create reserves – paving the way to scaling up our business by 70 per cent whilst being entirely self-sufficient for our Nitrogen gas.” FSP’s products can be found all over the globe, from specialist emergency service access panels in the London Power Tunnels to access covers installed under the red carpet at Cannes.
