The challenge

Nowadays, sustainability is a top priority for many businesses. Not only does it reduce your impact on the environment, but it can also make your business more appealing to potential clients whilst cutting your energy bills.

At CPA Group, many of our customers approach us with the main goal of reducing their carbon footprint.

It was the number one priority for this whisky distiller.

Initial plans were to remove an existing gas heater and replace it with an air source heat pump to help drastically reduce their carbon footprint.

However, after the initial inspection by CPA Group’s engineers, it was determined that there were opportunities to further increase the efficiency and sustainability of this whisky distillers’ facilities. With the project upscaled, our team could provide additional solutions that would also assist in the reduction of carbon.

The solution

Our engineers determined that a holistic approach would best serve our client’s facility. We utilised a combination of solutions working in tandem to maximise its energy efficiency.

After a stringent survey, our engineers outlined a plan to target three key areas that would address the challenges associated with rising energy bills, inefficient energy optimisation and attaining sustainability targets – heating, cooling and ventilation.

Here is a breakdown of the technologies that formed the ideal solution for this whisky distiller’s facility:
