we made the decision to harness solar energy as a sustainable power source for our Yeovil manufacturing plant
addressing our energy security since the onset of the UK energy crisis in 2021 . In 2022 , we initiated a comprehensive feasibility study to explore various renewable energy options . Following careful consideration , we made the decision to harness solar energy as a sustainable power source for our Yeovil manufacturing plant . This year , we successfully installed more than 1600 solar panels on the roof of that facility , accompanied by inverters to convert the electricity from DC to AC for efficient utilization with our plant machinery . This implementation has led to a remarkable reduction in our energy consumption , resulting in a substantial decrease in our carbon footprint . As a result , we have not only
lowered our operational costs but have also significantly improved the environmental sustainability of our manufacturing processes . In addition , we are currently engaged in an ongoing initiative to strive towards becoming a carbon-neutral business ,” he says .
With this in mind , it ’ s clear that Garador is on a mission to remain an innovative force within the industry by developing new products while pursuing energy self-sufficiency . Building on a legacy of engineering excellence , the company is poised to set new industry standards . ■
