Even more green power soon for Inspirion

Now that Inspirion GmbH, the producer of promotional merchandise, has cut its ecological footprint thanks to several schemes, the next measure is due to start: expansion of its rooftop photovoltaic system. This will be extended with a roof surface of 40,000 square metres. Over 12,000 modules, covering an area equal to almost six football pitches and with a peak capacity of around five megawatts, will be capable on average of generating about 4.5 million kilowatt hours of power annually. This means the firm’s own power requirements will be met many times over at full capacity. The excess green electricity will be fed into the power grid, thus reducing carbon emissions for the entire region over the long term. This dovetails with the measures already taken by the firm in the past. For example, converting its fleet as far as possible to electric vehicles or installing a 60-kilowatt heat pump. www.inspirion.eu
