Solar Panels for Food and Drink Production
Helping businesses become more sustainable through solar panels for Food and Drink Production.
Sustainability is a highly important issue for all commercial sectors at the moment, and breweries, manufacturing plants and hospitality businesses alike are wanting to become more sustainable in their operations. Often with vast roof space and high electricity consumption, food and drink production businesses can save money in operational costs by choosing more sustainable processes.
Solarsense provide a turnkey supply, installation and maintenance service for food and drink production solar panels, offering a range of finance options, including 100% asset finance and a competitive power purchase agreement (PPA).
Powering The Future of Food and Drink Production
As food and drink production companies generate carbon in general operations, as well as other processes that generate emissions, making facilities more efficient and generating your own forms of power are high priorities for many business owners. Solar panel systems have become a lot more affordable as they see increased adoption and significant returns on investment within only a few years of installation.
With many consumers extremely conscious of who and what they buy from, and the processes of how products are created, Millennial and Gen Z customers will be significantly more likely to prioritise sustainability compared to other generations, and will be willing to pay more for sustainable products. There is a clear link between prioritising sustainability whilst making financially smart decisions for your business to support the future of your business.

Creating A More Energy Efficient Business
As solar electricity is generated from the sun, and the only byproduct of the process is heat, it’s one of the most, if not the cleanest, sources of electricity on the planet.
Breweries, processing plants, and other businesses in the hospitality industry often have unused roof space available, making them ideal for solar PV panel installation. With a large amount of roofspace, you are able to install larger systems, which will increase the sustainability of your business whilst saving you money on energy bills and reducing your dependence on the national grid.
This is one of the most cost-effective and beneficial ways to reduce your environmental impact.
Integrating solar PV with battery storage
Integrating your solar PV system with a solar battery storage solution is a great way to capitalise on the energy savings your solar panels produce and leverage additional benefits for your business.
By storing and using all of the free electricity your solar panels produce instead of exporting it back to the grid, your business will benefit from even greater savings. Storing energy on-site ensures you can access the cheap solar electricity your panels have produced, even before the sun has risen on those cold winter mornings.
Financial Incentives for Food and Drink Manufacturers
For many organisations, the biggest obstacle to solar and renewable energy adoption is the initial investment. However, there are funding mechanisms, such as Solar as a Service, that help remove this barrier, turning capital expenditure into a manageable operational cost – helping you reduce emissions, lower energy bills, and achieve ESG goals with no upfront cost.
Instead of purchasing clean energy technology such as solar PV system, solar carport or battery storage solution outright, you simply pay a predictable monthly fee – transforming what would have been a large capital expense into a manageable operational cost. This allows your business to start saving immediately and benefit from renewable energy without the financial burden or complexity of system ownership.
As part of our consultative approach, we offer guidance as to the finance options that are available for your business as well as provide detailed economic efficiency calculations with your free desktop survey to ensure you understand exactly how and when you can expect to break even, the structure of repayments and the overall profit for your business.
