Ramsey
the world’s first zero-
carbon store
Tesco has been continuously developing stores
with lower carbon footprints since 2005 and
our new store at Ramsey in Cambridgeshire is
the latest step on this journey. The store emits
zero net CO2 in its operations.
The building is designed to use as little energy
as possible. The frame is made from sustainably
sourced wood, which requires much less energy
to produce than steel. We use roof windows and
sun pipes to bring natural daylight flooding into
the customer and staff areas.
Any energy that the store does need is generated
by a combined heat and power plant on site,
which is powered from renewable sources. We
sell any excess electricity to the National Grid.
