Clean energy has been flowing from the roofs of Pfefferkorn in Simmern since the end of September 2022. The new 749-kWp PV system was implemented together with CUBE CONCEPTS and has been reliably supplying low-cost solar power ever since. A good 3,700 square meters of 2,204 solar modules were installed on the production halls in the weeks beforehand.
An important contribution to environmental protection
"This is the next logical step for our environment," says a delighted Ralf Gabler, Managing Director of Pfefferkorn. "We can use around 450,000 kWh directly in our buildings and also feed around 210,000 kWh into the public grid. We are thus making an important contribution to environmental protection," says Gabler. The photovoltaic system alone now saves the company 350,000 kg of CO₂ every year.
Pfefferkorn relies on the latest technologies
The Hunsrück-based industrial company is aware of its responsibility towards the environment and has already converted parts of its company fleet to e-cars. E-charging stations installed on the company premises. In order to further reduce CO₂ emissions and the consumption of energy and resources Peppercorn also relies on the latest technologies and consistently replaces old machines with new, efficient systems.
Environmentally friendly energy generation for the future
"A photovoltaic system is the logical consequence of our efforts to make a contribution to environmental protection and we are delighted to be able to play our part in environmentally friendly energy generation," explained the Pfefferkorn management when the PV roof system was put into operation.
