Madison has cut its carbon footprint with solar panel installation at both its Milton Keynes facilities
The challenge of cutting carbon footprints is an issue that many businesses are facing at a time when almost everyone across the country – and the wider world – understands the damaging effects of climate change.
Last year, Madison started the process of installing more than 1,000 solar panels across the roofs of its two warehouses in Milton Keynes.
This project has now been completed and will not only offset the energy usage at the sites, but feed energy back into the National Grid as well.
Dominic Langan, CEO of Madison, said: “We are committed to the sustainability of our business and minimising our negative impact on the environment but acknowledge there is a huge task ahead of us.
“Part of this journey is reducing our dependence on carbon intensive energy within our business operations and making the investments necessary to deliver efficiency, value and health for our business.”
The full breakdown of energy generation is as follows:
The installation of these solar panels is part of Madison’s ongoing commitment to investing in sustainable business practices and reducing its carbon footprint.
Recently, in-house brands Madison Clothing and Aztec made a move to 100% sustainably sourced packaging with more planned in the future as the business continues to improve its green credentials.
