THE chief executive of E.ON UK came to the BT Convention Centre to open the E.ON Business Centre.
Dr Paul Golby visited Liverpool to see the new netpod – a bank of 14 computers for delegates and visitors to use.
The energy provider has partnered with ACC Liverpool since the venue opened in 2008, which has a keen focus on operating in an energy-efficient manner.
Dr Golby said: “Buildings currently account for over 40% of the UK’s total carbon emissions, so it’s really important that homes and businesses up and down the country become more energy-efficient.
“ACC Liverpool is a living example of how things can be done, as well as an exciting showcase for others using the facility.”
Bob Prattey, chief executive of ACC Liverpool, which includes the BT Convention Centre, said: “Communications is a key word for the meetings and events sector, providing real-time event news, facilitating a ceaseless flow of information and ensuring delegates can respond to their business needs.”
