A groundbreaking initiative to cut carbon emissions generated by Hull businesses has hit its initial target six months ahead of schedule.
The Hull Business Energy Efficiency Scheme has smashed the 750,000kg ambition, hitting 790,000kg well ahead of the June closure.
And with an additional 25 projects already being supported, a further 175,000kg are anticipated to be wiped out. Those behind it now anticipate saving 1,000 tonnes by the summer deadline - an equivalent saving to what would be achieved by planting 500,000 trees.
