We're excited to announce the opening of our new EV charging hub, located in the heart of Leatherhead! Our state-of-the-art facility is designed to meet the growing demand for electric vehicle charging, and we're proud to be a part of the transition to a more sustainable transportation system.

Electricity

At Riverbridge House, we only use 100% green energy. Through our partnership with FCT’s energy consortium, we receive low-rate electricity certified by REGO (Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin). This ensures that our electricity is generated from renewable sources such as solar, wind, and hydro, allowing us to maintain a low carbon footprint.

In addition, we have implemented cutting-edge commercial energy monitoring technology through EMMA AI, also provided by FCT. This commercial monitoring system allows us to track live energy usage, identify wastage, and receive valuable insights and recommendations on improving efficiency. It also enables us to generate detailed carbon reports, helping us stay accountable to our sustainability goals.

Lighting

In 2022 we choose to convert all of the building to LED lighting, and it was a simple choice to make.

LED is highly energy efficient - Less heat, more light, lower cost.

We now use 85% less electricity when compared to conventional lighting and around 18% less electricity compared to Conventional Fluorescent Lighting. Worldwide, around 20% of electricity is consumed in lighting.

Waste

We use a mixed recycling waste service contractor who collects paper, card, plastic and cans in one container and food waste in a separate collection. Including batteries and ink cartridges.

We send our general waste for disposal via our contractor to Energy from Waste facilities, diverting it from landfill making it 100% diversion from landfill.

This provides a sustainable recycling solution that greatly improves recycling performance, is cost-effective and also environmentally-friendly.

Building works

Our client can tailor their offices to their requirements and in line with our green credentials all our contractors are F.S.C. accredited.

Being FSC® certified this means that the materials used to produce the products we use have been traced at every stage. From the forest, right the way through to the end user. By purchasing products displaying the FSC® logo we can be assured that it has come from well-managed forests with high ethical standards.
