Arcola Theatre

Arcola aims to become the first carbon neutral theatre. Already Arcola has installed a hydrogen fuel cell to power the cafe and bar lighting and selected main shows, the theatre has also installed LED lighting. Both of these changes have led to a 60 per cent reduction in energy costs. www.arcolaenergy.com
