SuperValu Castleisland has joined forces with SEAI, the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland to spearhead change in the retail sector.
The store used the SEAI grant to upgrade its refrigeration and install solar panels, the result of which is the energy equivalent of powering 81 houses per year.
It represents a 59% overall carbon reduction for the Castleisland store.
