2025 ESG Initatives
IMPROVED ENERGY EFFICIENCIES
Optimizing heating systems for greater energy efficiency in our office and warehouse.
GOAL
Enhance energy efficiency through heating.
INITIATIVES
Energy efficient heating project
RESULTS
Upgrade heating for efficiency and savings.
GOAL
Our goal is to significantly enhance the energy efficiency of our heating and cooling systems through the Energy Efficient Heating Project. By replacing outdated equipment with high-efficiency air conditioning units and additional panel heaters, we aim to reduce energy consumption and lower operational costs. This initiative will not only contribute to significant cost savings but also minimize our environmental impact by decreasing emissions associated with energy use. Through these improvements, we are committed to fostering a sustainable future for Valley Northern and its operations.
ENERGY EFFICIENT HEATING PROJECT
In 2024, Valley Northern launched the Energy Efficient Heating Project to enhance the energy efficiency of our heating and cooling systems. This initiative focuses on replacing the existing gas boiler and warehouse tube heaters with high-efficiency air conditioning units and additional panel heaters for optimal climate control year-round.
