Solar PV Solutions for Food & Beverage Manufacturers
Food and beverage manufacturing is one of the most energy-intensive industries, commonly relying on electricity and fossil fuels for energy. Noble Green Energy Solar PV solutions can help reduce your energy costs, protect against market volatility and meet your sustainability goals – with options tailored to your business and budget.
Why Solar PV is Right for Food & Beverage Manufacturers
- Energy cost stability –Lock in predictable energy costs and reduce exposure to market volatility, which is essential for energy-intensive facilities with tight margins.
- Achieve sustainability goals – Reduce your carbon footprint and showcase your commitment to sustainability.
- Less reliance on the grid – Less risk of blackouts and downtime.
- Peak energy alignment –Solar PV meets high daytime energy demands typical of production facilities.
- Compliance with environmental regulations – Demonstrate your commitment to the growing demands of environmental legislation.
- Cold storage energy savings – Offset significant energy use with self-generated solar power.
- Low-carbon heating for glasshouses & polytunnels – Reduce the environmental impact of fruit and vegetable production.
- Maximise large roof spaces –Choose roof-mounted or ground-mounted solar PV installations to make the best use of your available space.
- Easily scalable systems – Start small and expand your solar setup as your needs grow or seamlessly add to an existing installation.
- Confident cost forecasting – Safeguard against rising energy costs and future supply chain disruptions.
Solar PV Cost & Return on Investment (ROI)
The annual ROI for commercial solar PV is around 25-35%. The greater your electricity costs, the faster the payback of installing a solar panel system.
The 200-300% average increase in electricity costs imported from the grid is one of the main reasons paybacks are much faster than it was previously.
