Project Overview

While the frozen food company had been looking at solar panel systems for a few years, the timing had never been quite right to take the plunge and to switch energy sources. Having remained in close contact with Low Carbon Energy during this time, the family-run business were well aware of what alternatives were out there and how they could benefit from them – so it was just a matter of time before they turned to solar panels to generate their electricity.

As electricity prices rose once again in January, Pendle Frozen Foods decided that solar PV was the only way to go and the only viable energy solution for the company. By February this year they’d already decided what they needed and committed to a 111 KW solar panel project with Low Carbon Energy.

With electricity being vital to the smooth running of the company, and the high electricity demand of their freezers, the frozen food company needed a system to deliver. The new solar panel system would not only ensure all their energy needs were met, it would also guarantee cheaper energy bills, a reduced carbon footprint, payments for the electricity they generate as well as providing an opportunity to sell electricity back to the grid if they found they were producing more than they needed.
