Renewable Energy
Deri Reed opened his Carmarthen café and restaurant in 2016 with strong sustainable and ethical goals. He felt the need to lead by example and looked into switching to green energy.
“I rang my broker, Farmers Energy, who said ‘we can switch you over to 100% renewable electricity and gas’ and when I worked out how much it would cost I thought, let’s just do it. I was shocked at how little extra green energy would cost. I think if more businesses knew how easy it was to switch, it’d be a no-brainer.”
It was a challenge to power a busy, compact kitchen and dining area, but thanks to SSE we are proud to say that diners at The Warren can eat their greens, Welsh produce and coffee prepared with 100% green energy.
SSE provides 100% renewable SSE Green Electricity from SSE’s wind farms and hydro power stations, along with SSE Green Gas Plus from sources like agricultural materials, food waste and wastewater.
