The project consists of 1.43MWp, which is 2620 PV modules installed, with another 311 panels to be installed following further roofing upgrades.
The system will produce approximately 1.10GWh of free electricity per annum with annual savings approximately £640,000 at today’s electricity prices.
Sheard’s will also see carbon savings in the region of 256.1 tonnes of CO2 saved per annum, the equivalent of planting 11,762 trees each year.
This will contribute towards Sheard Packaging’s commitment to achieving net zero targets while helping to meet their carbon reduction targets.
Tony Waite, Sol PV Group founder and managing director, said: “Sheard Packaging are very close to us in Halifax, and I have known the owners for a long time. For them to put their trust in me and our team at SPVG to deliver this project really means a lot.”
Lee Shackleton, managing director at Sheard Packaging, said: “We have spoken with Sol PV Group on a number of occasions regarding Solar PV and awarded them the contract in early 2022.
“Sheard now have a fully operational Solar system that completes a major part of our sustainability strategy for the future.”
