POWERING FELIXSTOWE MEGA DISTRIBUTION CENTRE WITH SOLAR BRILLIANCE
As we continue to work towards Net Zero emissions by 2050, we’re taking steps towards sustainability with the solar panel installation project at our 750,000 sq ft Felixstowe Mega Distribution Centre (FMDC).
Uniserve has partnered with Solar Solutions and Eden Sustainable, leading experts in renewable energy solutions, to implement the solar panel installation, which commenced in June 2023 and is due to reach completion by the end of the year.
The photovoltaic panels will be strategically positioned across the FMDC’s vast rooftop and will ensure we’re producing a remarkable output of clean, renewable energy.
Explore our solar panel installation project here and find some key stats of our green revolution below.
