Retail giant Tesco specifies Wilson e2
Find out how Tesco are radically improving their energy consumption
Tesco are now installing the Wilson e2 transformer in new stores to help reduce energy consumption and meet stringent new emissions targets.
Tesco have committed to becoming a zero-carbon business by 2050. But, as their chief executive Sir Terry Leahy points out, "2050 is a long way away and we have to show how we will get there". He has therefore set interim targets for the Tesco business at the beginning of 2007.
As a result, new stores and other buildings constructed between 2007 and 2020 emit on average no more than half the CO2 of an equivalent store built before 2007. Tesco have built environmental stores in every country in which they operate, each time cutting emissions more than the last.
We are proud that the Wilson e2 has contributed to this achievement.
