Among the latest initiatives will be an extension of on-site energy production at Crewe, aiming to increase the number of solar panels from 30,000 to 40,000 in the next two years. Moreover, Bentley is investigating using sustainable biofuel in fleet cars, including Bentley’s iconic Heritage Collection. Bentley’s partners are also being encouraged to support Bentley’s goal of being end-to-end carbon neutral by 2030, with suppliers expected to meet minimum sustainability standards. This will extend to Bentley’s global retailer network, each aiming for carbon neutrality by 2025, possibly even sooner.
The new Dream Factory includes a go-to-zero approach to the environmental impacts of manufacturing. Having achieved carbon-neutral production already in 2019, Bentley aims to reduce water consumption, waste to landfill, and other environmental impacts for every vehicle built in Crewe to an absolute minimum until 2030.
