We call this turning \’bills into mills\’. Some of our biggest achievements to date include building Britain\’s first megawatt windmill and the country\’s first grid-scale sun park, as well as building our first green gasmill, generating 100% green gas from a source that we will never run out of grass.We don\’t just focus on energy though- we built the Electric Highway, Britain\’s leading network of electric vehicle charging points; we helped Forest Green Rovers become the greenest football club in the world; and we launched Britain\’s greenest mobile phone service, Ecotalk, where they use the money from their customers\’ bills to protect and regenerate Britain\’s lost rainforests.Ecotricity is an equal opportunities employer and is committed to providing equality for all.
