Press
Release Body: Opus Energy, a leading independent
supplier of electricity to UK businesses, has joined forces with
Cornwall Light and Power to secure the entire output
of Renewable Obligation Certificates from the High
Sharpley wind farm and Goonhilly Wind Farm on
the Lizard. These certificates are purchased as part of Opus
Energy’s renewable obligation and provide support
and funding for the development of renewable energy.
Cornwall
Light and Power recently announced details of a £20
million project to 'repower' the Goonhilly Wind Farm
by replacing the 14 existing wind turbines with just six, increasing
the amount of emissions-free electricity produced by nearly four
times.
The
purchase of Renewable Certificates is part of Opus
Energy’s Environmental Commitment, which includes
a pledge to secure cleaner sources of power for its customers. Last
year, between April 2006 and March 2007, 66% of the energy supplied
by Opus Energy to its customers came from cleaner,
low-carbon sources – 47% from renewable generators and 19%
from cleaner Combined Heat and Power (CHP) produced
by CHP generators.
Charlie
Crossley Cooke, Managing Director of Opus Energy said,
“By working in partnership with independent renewable
energy providers, we are supporting the development of renewable
generation.”.
“Our
customers are able to benefit directly from our commitment to greener
energy, without the need for multiple, often confusing tariffs.”
