Aldi fits solar panels at more County Durham stores in £7.7m scheme

Aldi is rolling out solar panels across more County Durham stores as part of a £7.7 million investment in renewable energy. Stores in the region will be among those to benefit from the supermarket's latest green upgrade, which forms part of Aldi's on-site renewable energy programme. The UK's fourth largest supermarket is installing advanced 144 kWp solar systems at 41 stores before the end of 2025 and a further 49 stores the following year. (Image: Aldi) Jonathan Neale, managing director of national real estate at Aldi UK, said: "By expanding the use of solar panels across our UK stores, we're making practical, long-term changes to how we power our operations, which will help us generate more of our energy on site from renewable sources. "By investing in our estate now, we're strengthening the resilience of our operations and helping ensure we can keep delivering great value for customers across Britain in a more sustainable way." In County Durham, solar panels have already been spotted at Aldi stores in Crook, Stockton and Spennymoor, with the Peterlee location also set to benefit. Each new solar installation is expected to generate around 100,000 kWh of electricity annually. The programme is part of Aldi's broader commitment to increasing its use of renewable energy and improving energy security across its sites.

The retailer has also made other sustainability improvements, including converting more than 30 per cent of its owned HGV fleet to hydrotreated vegetable oil (HVO) in September last year. Aldi has also introduced chiller doors in its stores, reducing energy consumption by around 20 per cent per site.

Target Recall Update Issued Nationwide: Customers Urged Not to Eat Products

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Several products stocked at Target stores nationwide have been recalled due to risks ranging from undeclared allergens to potential contamination with Listeria monocytogenes. YoCrunch Yogurts Several types of YoCrunch Yogurts have been recalled by the company due to the potential presence of plastic pieces in the dome topper, which could be a choking hazard if consumed, the Food and Drug Administration said. Out of the products stocked at Target, the affected types are the YoCrunch Low Fat Vanilla with OREO Yogurt, YoCrunch Low Fat Vanilla with M&Ms Yogurt, YoCrunch Low Fat Strawberry with M&Ms Yogurt, all in 4ct/4oz size cups. Also included are the YoCrunch Low Fat Vanilla with OREO and M&Ms Yogurt Variety Pack with 8ct/6oz size cups. The FDA said that the loose plastic pieces are only at risk of being found in the separately packaged topper, and this does not impact the separately packaged yogurt. It said that the transparent plastic pieces may have sharp edges and are between 7 and 25 mm in length. A Target shopping center storefront pictures on Oxon Hill, Maryland USA June 22, 2024.

The recall was initiated voluntarily by manufacturer Danone U.S. in cooperation with the FDA on July 11. Newsweek contacted Danone U.S. for comment via email on Thursday. RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches RITZ Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches have been recalled due to incorrect labeling that may not specify they contain peanuts. In several multi-pack varieties, some individual packs may be incorrectly labeled as the cheese variety even though it may be a peanut butter variety, the FDA notice said. All outer labels on cartons are correct. The recall notice said that the issue was a "supplier error" and that corrective actions are being taken to help ensure this issue does not recur. Out of the products stocked at Target, the recall applies to Ritz Cracker Sandwiches with Peanut Butter in the 8ct/11.04oz size, and Ritz Peanut Butter Cracker Sandwiches Family Size 27.6oz/20ct. Customers with peanut allergies are advised to not eat the products and to discard them. The manufacturer Mondelēz Global LLC announced the voluntary recall on July 8. Mondelēz confirmed that it was conducting a voluntary recall of products in an emailed statement to Newsweek and pointed to their press release for more information. Oscar Mayer Turkey Bacon Oscar Mayer Turkey Bacon in 12oz packages sold at Target are among Kraft Heinz products being recalled byb the company due to risks that they are contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes, the United States Department of Agriculture said. The recalled products have the USDA mark of inspection on them. A contamination was detected through lab testing, and no confirmed illnesses have been reported so far. Listeria infection, or listeriosis, can cause severe illness, especially in older adults, those with weakened immune systems, and pregnant women. Symptoms may include fever, muscle aches, and gastrointestinal issues, with more severe risks such as miscarriage and death for vulnerable groups. The USDA urges consumers not to eat the affected turkey bacon and to either discard it or return it to the store. Kraft Heinz told Newsweek in an emailed statement: "We are also working collaboratively with public health authorities, including the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), to take the appropriate steps and initiate a recall. We deeply regret this situation and apologize to any consumers we have disappointed."
