Tesco Ireland To Use Energy From Food Surplus To Power Stores

Tesco Ireland has announced plans to use renewable gas generated from food surplus to power six of its stores in the country.

The initiative, which Tesco claims is a first among Irish retailers, will help in reducing its carbon emissions by 1,200 tonnes per annum.

Tesco Ireland has partnered with the Kildare-based renewable energy company Green Generation for the project facilitated by Gas Networks Ireland.
