The Client
Dew Valley Foods, originally a local butcher in Thurles, Ireland, has grown into a international key player in the fast-service restaurant market. As the business expanded, the need for a sustainable energy solution became essential.
The Challenge
Building a large-scale solar farm on an active manufacturing site required seamless integration with ongoing production, while meeting strict food safety and environmental regulations.
The Solution
Glan, in collaboration with Grange Solar and ESB Smart Energy Services, provided project management services. We oversaw everything from risk assessments to final construction, ensuring the project was delivered on time and within budget, without disrupting Dew Valley’s operations.
The Results
The 7.5-hectare, 7.3 MWp solar farm now powers a significant portion of Dew Valley Foods’ operations, cutting energy costs by 21% and reducing carbon emissions by 2,500 tonnes annually.
