“�E.ON�have�helped�us�become�one�of�the�most�sustainable�venues�in�Europe,�while�cutting�our�energy�bills�by�around�£20,000�a�year.”�

ACC Liverpool is�the�city’s�leading�venue,�comprising�the�11,000�capacity�Echo�Arena,�the�award-winning�BT�Convention�Centre�and�the�brand�new�Exhibition�Centre�Liverpool.�

As well as being the only purpose-built interconnected arena,

convention and exhibition centre in Europe, ACC Liverpool is

also the most sustainable venue of its kind. Gerald Andrews,

Finance Director at ACC Liverpool, explains:

“Being a sustainable venue has been vital to us from the outset

and it’s one of the reasons we’re with E.ON. We’ve been with

them for eight years and they’ve always provided us with a

total energy package rather than simply supplying energy.

“ Now, they’re even helping us to generate our own renewable

energy with solar panels. As a result, we’ll save £20,000 off our

energy bills and lower our carbon footprint by 130 tonnes –

every year, for at least the next 20 years. That’s an incredible

saving and a huge step forward in terms of being a truly

sustainable venue, demonstrating our commitment to the

environment, clients and visitors.

“ E.ON’s specialist Connecting Energies business installed 925

solar photovoltaic panels on the roof of our new 8,100 square

metre Exhibition Centre Liverpool, which will generate around

250,000kWh hours of renewable electricity every year – enough

to power 78 UK homes*. The energy will be used across our three

venues, to power everything from exhibitions and conferences

to banquets, concerts and sporting events, as well as our new

four-star, 216-room Pullman Liverpool Hotel.

“ E.ON specialise in providing organisations like ours with tailored,

end-to-end energy solutions. In our case we wanted to save

energy and become as sustainable as possible, and that’s what

E.ON have helped us achieve. They’ve been our energy provider

from day one and now they’re a huge part of our ongoing drive

for ever-greater sustainability.”
