Solar for Food & Beverage
Improved control over energy usage and costs can be an important strategy for Food & Beverage organisations. Maintaining efficient production while reducing costs can provide a competitive edge in a market saturated with endless choices for consumers. Smart energy management and the use of solar can provide long-term profitability with the cost of solar electricity potentially as low as 4c/kWh. Commercial solar for Food & Beverage organisations is a reliable initiative which enables ongoing reductions in electricity costs, without impacting day-to-day operations. Todae Solar provide solutions which enable savings from day one, with no upfront capital required. Here are some specific reasons why solar is suited to Food & Beverage organisations:
- Food & Beverage facilities often have a consistent load due to refrigeration. This enables organisations to offset usage across the 7 days of the week.
- Generation from solar often matches weekday production times, which can significantly reduce peak demand charges.
- Most Food & Beverage facilities have ample roof space or ground space to install solar.
- Solar offers significant energy savings as well as protection against future increases in energy costs.
- Helps minimise environmental impacts and achieve sustainability goals or targets.

“Todae Solar are fantastic. From start to finish they displayed skill and ingenuity.
We had a tricky site, that soon showed the resourcefulness of Todae Solar to come up with solutions that no other company displayed.
The execution was flawless, with great communication and professionalism at every stage. We would welcome another opportunity to work with them.”
– The Health Emporium Representative
“Todae Solar installed a 30kW solar system on my premises in December 2014 after conducting an analysis & business case. The system has reduced by energy usage by about 30% and I’ve seen consistent savings on my bills every month. The system has even been outperforming the forecasts by about 7%.
I highly recommend Todae Solar, they have a good understanding of the requirements for food distributors and were excellent from initial discussions, to installation with a local installer and after sales. I’ve been extremely satisfied with my system and can’t recommend solar and Todae Solar highly enough.”

“As an organisation having greater control of our energy was an important strategy on our road map. We choose Todae Solar based on their market experience, pricing and professionalism. We were very happy with their local installation team, and their response to some small technical issues that arose during the process. We are happy with solar system and look forward to further installation by the Todae Solar team.”
– Western Meat Packers Representative
“We wished to reduce our reliance on the grid and gain a reduction in electricity expenditure as well as having a desire to reduce our emissions footprint. For us, the process was seamless from the start. Installation held a few minor inconveniences but the team was professional and kept us in the loop at all times. We always felt, price was a factor in deciding to move forward with our decision, but the quality of the system was imperative. In the end, Todae Solar’s professionalism, historical work portfolio and the fact they weren’t trying to force a sale made our decision simple. Working with Todae Solar was highly satisfactory. The continued contact from sales through project management and installation to completion, kept us aware of all stages of progression, and proved our decision to choose Todae Solar correct. The process was both enjoyable and delivered a successful outcome and we’re saving approx 25% on our bill.”
– Markwell Fisheries Representative
“As electricity prices rose out financial outgoings for energy spiraled to the point where we became concerned as to the viability of irrigated viticulture, our power bill was becoming literally crippling…Having made major renovations to our property six years ago, we took the next step of installing solar panels. It has been the best investment ever made. Coupled with strategic measures such as only irrigating during daylight hours we are saving approximately 50% on energy bills of a year or two ago. Todae Solar designed and installed a system for us with which we are very satisfied I highly recommend the company to solve your energy requirements.”
