As a part of sustainability drive, William Hill, UK announced that it has moved all of its UK electricity supply to renewable energy resources.

The renewable energy drive would witness the casino operator switching from electricity in the UK to energy supplier Total Gas and Power.

The operator intends to now rely fully on renewable green sourced electricity, including from solar, wind and hydroelectric.

In the official statement William Hill stated that its green drive initiative is set to save 61,500 tonnes of carbon dioxide over the three-year contract. This is equivalent to 38,000 cars in the UK or 16,667 one-way flights from London to Las Vegas, noted William Hill.  It also intends to rollout smart metering across its betting shops in 2021.

As per Gambling Insider, William Hill chief procurement officer David Medori said: “We have prioritised the environment as being extremely important to William Hill, and have committed to becoming a Carbon Neutral Business.

“We have established aggressive targets over five years in C02 reduction on energy, waste, transportation and water. All metrics are on target. We have an Environmental Management Forum for driving through key initiatives and ensuring these are on both operating and PLC Board agendas.”
