Energia Helps Irish Firm Reduce Its Carbon Footprint

Energia is helping an Irish fresh produce firm reduce its carbon footprint by 94 tonnes of CO2 this year.

Keelings undertook at its facilities at Foodcentral, Ireland's national food and drink park in North County Dublin.

The firm replaced the facilities' existing lighting with an energy efficient LED system and fitted insulation in the company’s storage facilities.


As a result Keeling's are reducing their annual energy consumption by 187,000kWh, leading to a reduction in its carbon footprint.

Energia is offering businesses funding for their energy efficiency projects.

The scheme provides businesses with funding for up to 30% of the cost of energy saving projects. Replacing lighting, upgrading heating systems and refrigeration, variable speed drives and air compressors are all part of the funding scheme.
