CENTURY OLD COMPANY OILS THE POWER OF THE FUTURE
Lincol Oil Company which has been in business for over 103 years is keeping up with modern times by focusing on the wind turbine industry. Based in Lincolnshire Lincol is working with oil giant Shell to promote a range of lubricants specifically manufactured by Shell which will give long term maintenance of wind turbines.
Michael Harrington, Managing Director said, “Not only are we in a position to supply this specialist product, our dedicated team of staff can provide an expert technical back up service to compliment it. We have spent a lot of time researching this relatively new industry and with our reliable distribution structure in place we feel we can offer a complete professional package to the engineers. The east coast is already home to a number of wind turbines but there is scope for many more. A further two farms are presently at the planning stage and if approved would alone generate enough power to supply 760,000 homes; the power expected to be fed back to the national grid by the end of 2012.”
According to a report published by the Sustainable Development Commission, to tackle the problems of climate change and energy security, wind power must be made to work and the UK has the most geographically diverse wind resource in Europe. Climate change will have a devastating impact unless urgent action is taken to boost the contribution of renewables, alongside energy efficiency measures.
