RRN targets net zero with ECA partnership

Rapid Repair Network (RRN) has announced a new partnership with ECA Business Energy as it moves towards carbon neutrality and then net zero operations.

It will work with ECA to measure and validate the carbon footprint associated with each repair job carried out by its network of mobile repairers.

By leveraging the expertise of ECA Business Energy, RRN aims to quantify the sustainability benefits of mobile repair services and share their reduced environmental impact to their customers and the broader public.

The collaboration with ECA Business Energy marks the beginning of RRN’s journey towards achieving carbon neutrality, with the first milestone being achieving PAS 2060 certification. The standard requires measurement, reduction, and the offsetting of carbon emissions, ensuring that RRN’s operations are genuinely contributing to a more sustainable future.

Net zero

In the longer term, RRN is committed to achieving a net-zero carbon footprint.

Rob Hawes, managing director at RRN, said:

“At RRN we are acutely aware of the impact of vehicle repairs on the environment. Whilst we have long believed that our service is more environmentally friendly than a standard body shop repair, we are now formally quantifying this and aim to be carbon neutral before ultimately achieving net zero status. By choosing RRN, customers can be confident that they are making a positive contribution toward the environment.”
