It’s always best to ask for assistance from an accredited service provider to inspect your electrical wiring for your own safety.

The deal, which runs until 2021, will see electricity generated from green sources such as wind farms and solar plants power EE’s operations, including over 500 retail locations.

As part of the contract, npower will supply EE with 680 gigawatts of renewable electricity all of which will be certified to provide assurance of its renewable status.

This new deal will help BT move towards reaching its target to purchase 100% renewable electricity for its operations by 2020, where markets allow. Last year, BT sourced 82% of its electricity renewably.

BT, including EE, recently announced its ambition to reduce its carbon emissions by 87% by 2030, setting itself on a path to help limit global warming to 1.5°C by the end of the century.

Stephen Harris, Chief Financial Officer​, EE said: “An organisation the size of ours has a responsibility to conduct business sustainably and this new deal, whilst also making sense from a business perspective, reaffirms our commitment to doing just that. This is just the latest step in working towards our renewable energy goals and ultimately a low-carbon business model.”

BT has already made significant strides in reducing its end-to-end carbon footprint which has helped to deliver a total of £221m of energy savings since 2009/10.
