The latest phase in Claydon Court’s decade-long fight against climate change in Suffolk takes place on Wednesday 14th of February. “We’ve chosen Valentine’s Day deliberately to symbolise our love for Suffolk – our Greenest County!” quipped Richard Parker. The day will see the unveiling of six Electric Vehicle (EV) chargepoints by Peter Frost from the Suffolk 25 By 25 project. It will also include a demonstration of the Carbon Champions programme that underpins future work that Neutral Territory do in Suffolk.
Four of the companies based at Claydon Court are committed to the Suffolk 25 x 25 programme that aims to reduce carbon emissions by 25% by 2025. “There is only 48 weeks to go but there’s still time to act. You don’t have to reduce your total 2024 emissions by 25%, just show that emissions at the end of this year are 25% less than when you started,” Richard explained.
“EV Chargers are a major driver to adoption (no pun intended). Several colleagues working at Claydon Court only have EVs because they have nowhere to charge them at home, but can at work. Business travel has dipped due to remote working and online meetings, but there is always chargers free for site visitors. People really appreciate it, and it’s really good PR for tenants. We anticipate our ‘Charger Farm’ being a big draw for the flexible working businesses we want to attract at Claydon Court.”
