Why energy efficiency is key in the food and drink industry...

With everything from refrigeration, lighting, motors, fans, pumps, drying, direct fire and water heating, the processes involved in food and beverage manufacturing make it a highly energy intensive industry.  Implementing energy efficiency measures and switching to renewable energy sources goes a long way to reducing the amount of energy you use and in turn cutting the amount you spend on it. We work with a variety of food and beverage manufacturers providing everything from commercial solar panels, to energy management, waste heat recovery and more. We work with our customers as an end-to end partner, to understand their energy usage and make informed suggestions on the renewable technologies and services that will make your business more sustainable and more energy efficient. 

 

A multi-solution approach to energy saving...

Flexible energy management

Our end to end service means that we can provide everything from identifying issues to delivering and managing energy saving solutions, all in a way that's right for your business.

Boost productivity and increase resilience

Identifying and implementing solutions to improve your energy efficiency can speed up processes and increase safety leading to better productivity and resilience. 

Power your production with renewables

Renewable energy solutions put control back in your hands. When you generate your own energy you can use it, store it and sell it back to the grid, cutting your overall energy costs and C02.emissions

Offset energy cost pressures with energy saving solutions

With rising energy costs a concern within the food and beverage industry, making the switch to self-generation could help you to cut costs and meet your net zero targets. Solar farms, wind and commercial heat pumps are already growing in popularity within the industry because of the huge energy and carbon savings they can provide. 

We can even help you drive revenue through implementing things like demand side response (DSR). Where we can assist your company in selling back extra energy to the grid and lowering your on-site consumption during times of high usage.

Plus electric vehicle chargers can help your sustainability targets and offer a source of revenue via vehicle to grid (V2G) by feeding unused energy stored in their batteries back to the national grid.

Get smart with our market leading Energy Management System (EMS)

From energy audits to detailed cost and energy reduction plans, our energy management platform optimum can help you to identify how your buisness can be more energy efficient and suggest ways that you can implement solutions that will drive savings and even revenue.

Boost your bottom line with Demand Side Response (DSR)

Demand side response can help you to reduce your electricity costs and consumption at times of peak demand by pausing or reducing consumption, changing the times when energy is consumed or using on site generation methods to produce your own electricity.

DSR allows you to reduce your energy use when demand is low or when your renewable supply is greater. Battery storage is also a great addition as it allows you to store any excess energy you generate to use at times of higher demand. All of this is great for your net zero targets and your bottom line.
