Renewable energy leader in logistics
Corporate social responsibility and sustainability are becoming increasingly important within companies. Several entrepreneurs are trying to make their businesses sustainable in their own way. Newcorp Logistics has also begun making their business more sustainable by installing solar panels. How and why did we do that?
The roof of the warehouses is fitted with solar panels to make them more sustainable. This investment brings many benefits to Newcorp Logistics, the environment and the customer. This investment makes Newcorp Logistics one of the leaders in renewable energy. With a huge storage space, you have a large area available for solar panels. The solar panels have a capacity of 1,000,000 kW/h, which is enough for 283 households. The purchase and installation of solar panels was an important step into the future for Newcorp.
“By purchasing and installing this, we notice a big and positive difference. Perhaps this is also very interesting for our customers. For some parties it can still be a factor when choosing their logistics partner. We like to think along with them in this as well. In addition, the sun is a very powerful and natural source of energy, so why not make use of it? By generating your power where the power is needed, you can see that there is a big difference in storage and distribution. If we as Newcorp Logistics could help make the logistics sector and hopefully the Netherlands more sustainable, we are certainly open to that. So it was not a difficult decision. A decision that I hope we will benefit from for a long time to come,” said Jasper van Luik, director of Newcorp Logistics.
