Powered by ATESS technology, this move aligns seamlessly with Alepia’s core value of environmental commitment, a vision upheld by its founder, Dr. Samir Constantini.
The state-of-the-art configuration includes a 100kW solar power system and a 158 kilowatts-hour battery storage unit, featuring the ATESS HPS100 and ATESS BR157R models.
This robust and efficient setup is designed to maximise energy output and storage, ensuring Alepia’s operations are powered by a reliable and sustainable source.
The energy generated by Alepia’s solar panels is instrumental in powering the entire facility, particularly the factory.
With a peak load capacity of 150 kilowatts, the solar system ensures uninterrupted and efficient operations, even during periods of high demand.
This reliable and economical energy source significantly reduces the company’s dependency on conventional electricity, lowering operational costs and environmental impact.
Beyond powering production machinery, the solar installation supports the building’s comprehensive energy needs, including computers, servers, air conditioning, and winter heating.
This holistic approach enhances operational efficiency and contributes to substantial energy savings.
Since the installation six months ago, Alepia has observed substantial reductions in electricity consumption, bolstering its competitiveness in the market.
The economic advantages of the solar installation are evident, with Alepia reporting monthly electricity savings of €4,000, leading to a projected total return on investment within seven years.
This financial benefit is complemented by substantial government support, particularly from the Île-de-France region, which reimbursed 18 per cent of the installation costs, making the transition to renewable energy more accessible and attractive for businesses.
ATESS’s role in Alepia’s green energy transformation is pivotal. The advanced technology and reliable performance of ATESS’s HPS100 and BR157R models provide the backbone for Alepia’s sustainable energy solution.
The estimated annual power generation of 184 megawatts-hour and the reduction of 92 tons of CO2 emissions per year highlight the significant environmental impact of this collaboration.
Alepia’s partnership with ATESS exemplifies how businesses can achieve both economic efficiency and environmental responsibility through innovative energy solutions.
By harnessing the power of solar energy, Alepia strengthens its commitment to natural and organic production while setting a benchmark for sustainability in the industry.
