One of Ireland’s largest grocery retailers is to roll out 4MW of solar on 30 of its stores over the next two years as part of plans to reduce energy consumption across its estate by 20%. SuperValu will install the panels as part of an investment of over €3 million (~£2.6 million) to power its stores, and electric vehicle charge points at some selected locations, with renewable generation. This is expected to offset some 60,000 kg of CO² annually per store.
