head office has a bright future after adopting solar
Aggregate Industries, part of the Holcim group, has continued its rollout of renewable energy across its sites with the addition of rooftop solar panels at its head offices in Leicestershire.

The technology has been added to the main office complex of the leading sustainable building solutions provider at its Bardon Hill Head Office site near Coalville.
A total of 210 solar panels have been installed as part of its ongoing renewable energy installation project.
The project, managed by Regenerco with installation carried out by Aniron, will be able to generate more than 73,500 KWh of power per year, equating to 27 per cent of the site’s annual power needs and resulting in a saving of 14.5 tonnes of CO2 emissions per year.
The introduction of more renewable energy sources is a key part of the company’s net zero strategy which aims to achieve zero emissions before 2050. The first major rooftop installation was completed on factory roofs at its Hulland Ward site last year.
Luke Olly, Head of Decarbonisation at Aggregate Industries UK, said: “It's great to follow on from our first successful major project at Hulland Ward last year with this next installation.
“We’re really pleased to be able to keep the momentum going on the project and particularly pleased to get this done at Bardon Hill, which is strategically a very important site as our head offices.
“The roll out of renewable energy at our sites is a fundamental part of our net-zero strategy, with an overall aim to generate more of our own renewable energy every year.
“We already have the next installations in view and hope to deliver a number of rooftop and ground mounted solutions by the end of 2025.”
Nigel Price, Director at Burton-based Regenerco which developed the project installation, said: “It is fantastic to complete another project for Aggregate Industries at their group head office to support them on their clean electricity needs.
“We look forward to building on this momentum and continuing to support the company to roll out further successful projects during the rest of this year.”
