This milestone was accomplished through a strategic partnership with Carbonfit, supported by energy supply partner Power NI. 

The achievement was celebrated during a site visit on Wednesday, 5th February 2025, at the Lisburn Site of Camlin Group, featuring Aron Ewins (Carbonfit), Ian Fraser (Power NI), Lesley Orr (Camlin Group), and Michael Cunningham (COO, Camlin Group).

Aron Ewins, Carbonfit: “Camlin Group’s commitment to sustainability is truly inspiring. Through our partnership, they have accelerated their transition to Net Zero and demonstrated how businesses can take meaningful climate action.” 

Ian Fraser, Power NI: “Providing green energy solutions to forward-thinking companies like Camlin Group is at the heart of what we do. We are proud to be part of this transformative journey working in partnership with carbonfit.” 

Lesley Orr, Camlin Group: At Camlin we saw the increasing volume of sustainability legislation and weren’t sure about what we need to do because it’s quite complicated but we’ve learned that it doesn’t have to be like that. We joined the Carbonfit as an Accelerator Member and now their chartered engineers ensure our  sustainability  data is accurate, verifiable, and compliant.  

The dashboards and reports on the platform give us confidence and control over our Net Zero goals and the insights we need to make data led decisions. We’ve turned uncertainty from regulation into cost savings and competitive advantage which is great for business. “ 

David Lyness, Camlin Group:  Camlin Group was highly impressed with the expertise and commitment to sustainable energy solutions demonstrated by Carbonfit through their Green Energy Procurement service. Aron Ewins and his team conducted a thorough assessment of our energy consumption, identifying opportunities for cost savings and carbon reduction by consolidating our sites. Their skilled utility brokering secured the most competitive rates from energy suppliers, ensuring we maximised value from the market. 

Not only has this initiative lowered our operational expenses, but it has also strengthened our alignment with environmental objectives. The entire process was seamless, transparent, and provided us with confidence in our transition to a more sustainable future. I strongly recommend Carbonfit to any business seeking to enhance their energy procurement strategy and adopt greener energy solutions.” 

This milestone underscores how strategic partnerships and responsible energy transitions can drive tangible carbon reduction progress. Camlin Group remains dedicated to further sustainability advancements, ensuring continued impact for a cleaner future.
