3T Power And Clarke Strengthen Sustainability Partnership

3T Power has partnered with Ballymena-based specialist façade contractor Clarke to support its shift to 100% renewable electricity, showcasing how firms can cut environmental impact while maintaining operational efficiency.

The collaboration formed part of 3T Power's wider work helping businesses move to locally generated clean energy.

Clarke's journey began with smaller measures such as energy‑efficient lighting and waste reduction before evolving into a comprehensive renewable energy strategy. According to 3T Power, its team provided tailored energy-efficiency advice and integrated sustainable power into Clarke's long-term plans. Clarke is now supplied entirely by clean, locally sourced wind energy.

Sustainability remained central to Clarke's decision-making, from materials used to the power running its facilities. 3T Power said it had supported Clarke in demonstrating that companies can thrive while prioritising renewable energy, cutting waste and embracing environmentally responsible practices, significantly reducing the firm's carbon footprint.

Clarke chose 3T Power for three main reasons: a commitment to 100% renewable electricity from local wind sources; a rigorous, transparent auditing process to trace energy provenance; and a smooth, fully supported transition that caused no disruption to day‑to‑day operations.

The partnership's outcomes included lower emissions—around 57 tonnes of CO2e a year—stronger confidence among clients, employees and partners, and direct support for local renewable infrastructure by sourcing from wind farms in Northern Ireland, reducing reliance on imported fossil fuels. 3T Power also hosted Clarke's team at a wind turbine to see generation at source and gain further insight into the process.

Looking ahead, Clarke's goals include achieving carbon neutrality and exploring on‑site renewable options such as solar panels. 3T Power said it would continue to guide Clarke on its path to net zero and encouraged other businesses to consider the benefits of switching to locally generated renewable energy with expert support.
