How do we make our clients’ lives easier? We provide them with clearly defined, fully optimized solar solutions. Check out how we helped a Houston, TX-based Coca-Cola distribution facility revitalize its energy efficiency with a rooftop solar panel structure.
How a Simple Solar Investment Revolutionized the Energy Efficiency of a Global Institution
You don’t become (and remain) an iconic brand without adapting along the way. Coca-Cola is one of the most recognizable and ubiquitous names in the world, and they understand the need for innovation. That’s why when they wanted to join in the effort to kickstart the Climate Action Plan in Houston, TX, they reached out to O3 Energy.
The Problem
Companies around the world are having to make difficult decisions regarding their energy efficiency. The system they’re using now might cost them too much on a month-to-month basis … but wouldn’t the upfront cost of solar panels be more than that? That’s where so many facilities make mistakes. Solar systems not only offer quick, predictable ROI, they also lower your monthly energy bill significantly enough that it offsets what you were paying before. Coca-Cola’s Houston facility wanted to join the effort, and the O3 Energy team was eager to jump in. When they decided a rooftop solution was right for them, we immediately picked up the baton on the project and went to work.
The Solution
Rooftop solar panel structures are a great way to make use of space that otherwise may not serve much of a purpose (beyond protecting everything that lies beneath it in your building). Our team specializes in time-sensitive, cost-efficient solar EPC services—meaning we handle every part of the project from initial design and conception, all the way through to installation and construction. We worked closely with the Coca-Cola team to make sure their budget was adhered to and the scope of the project never extended beyond the limits of exactly what they were looking for. Specifications included:
- Total System Size (DC W): 120.6 kW
- Panel Type: Hansol 335 W
- Number of Modules: 360
- First-Year System Output: 164,000 kWh
The Result
There are myriad reasons why investing in solar is a wise decision—beyond the obvious environmental benefits, there are several ways in which it improves the quality of your space and offers a low operating cost. And with solutions that are custom-tailored to your exact specifications, O3 Energy guarantees that the final product will yield the results you were looking for. The rooftop structure we installed provided our client with several advantages almost immediately, including:
- 100% electric bill offset
- $445,642 in 25-year savings
- 201% 25-year ROI
- $286,129 increase in property value
With a return like that, it’s not hard to see why they made the decision to go solar with O3. Are you ready to take the next step to a more sustainable and cost-efficient energy solution?
