Bethphage are thrilled to announce another step forward in our green credentials by installing solar panels at our Head Office in Shrewsbury. As a signatory of Shropshire’s Social Value Charter, reducing our carbon footprint and minimising our environmental impact within the communities we serve is a key business priority for Bethphage. We are already saving 23 tonnes of C02 a year through reduced mileage across the organisation and the solar panels will significantly add to these carbon savings.
Bethphage’s Head of Finance, Chris Stephens said:
“The solar panels will ensure Bethphage contribute towards reducing Shropshire’s carbon footprint by saving an estimate of 10 tonnes of carbon dioxide a year.”
Bethphage would like to thank the Marches Renewable Energy Grant Scheme who through the England European Regional Development Fund partially funded the solar panels, as part of the European Structural and Investment Funds Growth Programme 2014-2020.
