Act NOW over new carbon footprint measures
Energy intensive manufacturing and engineering companies should start preparing now for a new carbon emissions trading scheme, which will hit up to 5,000 UK organisations - starting next year
The additional factory will enable renewable and energy efficient technology provider Ener-g to assemble up to five 2MWe containerised combined heat and power (CHP) or landfill gas generator units simultaneously - for speedier delivery.
Pre-despatch test facilities will also be expanded to accommodate simultaneous testing of three units.
This will shrink customer lead times and maximise cost and environmental efficiency savings.
The new factory will release space at the existing site, boosting production capacity for Ener-g sub 1MW CHP units.
Administration space will also be released, with Ener-g Natural Power, the renewable energy business, relocating to the new offices.
Ener-g has operations in most continents - with subsidiaries in Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, Hungary; joint ventures in Spain and South Africa and partners across the globe.
It employs nearly 600 people worldwide and has grown rapidly, with turnover rising almost four-fold over six years to GBP70m.
Group managing director Derek Duffill, said: "This additional capacity is needed due to the continued expansion of our business and the increase in demand for CHP and landfill gas generation equipment.
The reduction in lead-times for manufactured products will boost productivity and further enhance our growth programme".
