Isaacs Plumbing Pumping and Electrical - Waipukurau Dairy Shed
This Central Hawkes Bay Farm is a perfect example of how solar can work on a dairy farm. The installation was completed July 2024. Since the system has been up and operational the farm has managed to consume the maximum PV produced on farm, also take full advantage of the current spot electricity price for export. Goodwe monitoring allows the customer to see both the production of solar and the consumption of energy used by the farm buildings including cottages and pump sheds.
Full financial analysis was run on this project including utilising Business Green Loans for funding.
