Longcliffe power up for electric vehicles
Company installs EV chargers at Curzon Lodge Transport Depot and Brassington Moor Quarry
INDEPENDENT calcium carbonates business Longcliffe have further demonstrated their commitment to sustainability with the installation of electric vehicle (EV) charging points at their Derbyshire sites.
The company has put in place five double chargers for use by all staff, contractors, and visitors. Two have been set up at its Curzon Lodge Transport Depot and head office, and one at its Brassington Moor Quarry entrance.
Longcliffe Group managing director Paul Boustead said: ‘We are continually looking at ways of managing our environmental impact and making our business more sustainable and this goes beyond our site operations. We are investigating renewable fuels for our fleet and now encouraging employees to look at non-fossil fuel options for their own vehicles.’
In addition to the installation of the charging points, the company has also announced a commitment to move its small fleet of company cars over to electric power as the vehicles come up for renewal.
