Southern Electric is proud to sponsor the 2009 Brighton to London Eco-Rally as part of our commitment to green technology. Our vision is to reduce both the annual mileage and consumption of our vehicles.

About the Organisation

Southern Electric recognises that its vehicles will play a major part in reducing its carbon footprint. Their vehicles service a wide geographical area and they are proactive in trialling alternative fuels, vehicles and technologies. These innovations are additions to their common sense approach to sustainability.

About the Venue

SSE is currently constructing one of the world's largest offshore wind farms at Greater Gabbard in the North Sea, in a joint venture with RWE npower renewables.
The project will cost approximately £1.3 billion. The wind farm, approximately 25 kilometres off the coast of Suffolk, will consist of 140 wind turbines and, when fully operational in 2012, will provide enough clean electricity to power around 530,000 homes.

Make a highly visible statement of your CSR commitments by converting your vehciles fleet

We are actively using electric vehicles in our Southern Electric fleet and have trialled the use of both LPG and Compressed Natural Gas. We have also measured significant benefits from electronically limiting speeds, the procurement of Smart cars and using tyres that are proven to be both fuel-efficient and long-lasting.
