Tesco goes green

TESCO China announced yesterday it will open its first low energy distribution center in Jiashan County, Zhejiang Province next March.

The center will save an estimated 35 percent energy than a normal distribution center with similar capacity, by cutting air leakage and using energy saving air-conditioner and refrigerator.

It costs 30 percent more to build a green distribution center, according to Tesco China.

The 237,000 square-meter distribution center will supply groceries for east China and other Tesco-brand products nationwide.

The company also vowed to cut 10 percent carbon emissions in China before 2011.
