Zurich Insurance Group has been shortlisted for a prestigious UK sustainability award for the second year in a row.

The leading global life insurer is in the running to win the ‘Transformation’ category in the annual National Sustainability Awards.

The centrepiece of its awards submission is the solar power system at Zurich House which went live in July last year.

It’s currently on track to provide around 70% of the office’s annual electricity needs.

Last year, Zurich on the Isle of Man won the ‘Energy’ category in the UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man Awards.
