One step closer to energy self-sufficiency – photovoltaics at Paketo

Rooftop photovoltaic system at Paketo Group – solar panels for energy self-sufficiency of the production facility

We have previously invested in technologies that help streamline production and make better use of energy and materials in our operations. The next step was the installation of solar panels, completed in the second quarter of this year. This has brought us one step closer to energy self-sufficiency.

It is no secret that we have gone through a longer period of intensive innovation – a growing number of customers, larger production runs of floor stands, and the development of special inserts made of seven-ply corrugated board had already shown us that our existing machinery was reaching its limits.

New technologies for faster, smarter and more efficient production

So we upgraded our production processes, planning system, and expanded our machinery. First came a die-cutting machine, followed by printers, gluing technology and a modern digital plotter. All of this was complemented by a press for processing cardboard waste, which makes baling and further processing easier. You can read more here about how these innovations specifically increased our production capacity and made selected parts of our operations more efficient.

Our own renewable energy source for production

The next logical step was the installation of a photovoltaic power plant, which now allows us to supply part of our operations with our own energy from a renewable source. It helps us cover part of our electricity consumption from our own source and moves us closer to greater energy self-sufficiency. This step also builds on other measures in our operations and our work with materials of verified origin used for cardboard production.

The project, co-financed by the European Union, is expected to cover approximately 20% of our company’s annual electricity consumption. The annual output of the power plant reaches approximately 40 MWh.

Now all that remains is to enjoy our own energy and plan more projects in a similar spirit. Who knows, maybe one day we will even have our own forest.

Shrnutí:

Paketo Group is investing in production modernisation and its own photovoltaic power plant, which helps cover part of the electricity consumption in its operations.

Development of production capacity: the company expanded its machinery and technology base with new machines and equipment that help manage a growing volume of orders and more demanding production.
More efficient operations: the innovations affected production processes, planning and material processing, contributing to smoother production operations.
Photovoltaics as the next step: the installation of solar panels makes it possible to supply part of the operation with the company’s own energy.
Greater energy self-sufficiency: the project is aimed at covering approximately 20% of the company’s annual electricity consumption.
Specific project output: the power plant’s annual production reaches approximately 40 MWh.
Building on previous investments: the photovoltaic power plant expands the company’s long-term steps in modernising operations and working with materials of traceable origin.

For Paketo Group, this project is another step towards more efficient operations, more modern production and greater energy self-sufficiency.
