Why use renewable energy?
Long-term cost savings
Once you’ve made the initial investment to create a renewable energy infrastructure that is future-proof to meet your current and future needs, you will start to see savings on your power costs. Over-time these savings on overheads and increased margins add up to the point where they provide a tangible return on investment.
A more flexible power infrastructure
By combining robust energy generation and using a behind-the-meter energy storage system, excess electricity generated outside of peak times can be used for later use. This can have significant benefits during peak periods which require more energy than usual, or during times where a blackout may occur and the stored back-up energy can maintain operations until repairs are completed.
Less reliance on national grid energy
Investing in on-site generation methods through renewable energy gives your business the advantage of having a diversified energy portfolio.
In the event of issues with the local or national power infrastructure, you will have a reliable back-up supply of electricity.
Work towards carbon neutrality targets
Many organisations have measures to reduce carbon emissions in their strategy and yearly goals. Reducing the need to draw energy from sources that use fossil fuels can be a big step towards achieving net-zero carbon emission goals.
