Project Overview:

The Bean Cartel, a renowned coffee roasting company based in Notting Hill, Victoria, made a strategic investment in solar energy to enhance sustainability efforts and reduce operational costs. With the assistance of Cyanergy, The Bean Cartel successfully installed a solar array comprising 41 JASolar panels on the roof of their warehouse.

System Configuration:

  • 1 x Sungrow SG15RT inverter with a maximum AC output of 15.00 kW.
  • The solar array includes 41 x JA Solar JAM54D40-440/LB/1500V panels with a maximum DC power of 18.04 kW.

Benefits and Impact:

The installation of solar panels at The Bean Cartel’s roastery house in Notting Hill marks a significant milestone in their commitment to sustainability. By harnessing solar energy, The Bean Cartel can effectively offset the equivalent of 20 households’ worth of annual energy consumption, based on an average daily usage of 25 kWh per household.

Environmental Contribution:

The adoption of solar power aligns with The Bean Cartel’s mission to contribute to the War on Waste and minimize environmental impact. Solar energy production generates electricity from sunlight, eliminating the need for fossil fuels and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. As a renewable energy source, solar power ensures sustainability and abundance, supporting The Bean Cartel’s commitment to environmental stewardship.

Conclusion:

The Bean Cartel’s investment in solar energy exemplifies their dedication to sustainable practices and responsible business operations. By partnering with Cyanergy and embracing solar technology, The Bean Cartel not only reduces operational costs but also demonstrates leadership in environmental conservation within the coffee roasting industry. As they continue to champion sustainability, The Bean Cartel sets a precedent for businesses seeking to make a positive impact on both the planet and their bottom line.
