This case study highlights the experience of a small coffee shop that adopted solar power to improve its sustainability and reduce energy costs. The shop, known for its commitment to local sourcing, sought to align its energy practices with its values.
After noticing rising energy bills, the owner decided to invest in a 10 kW solar panel system. The decision was driven by both financial and environmental considerations.
The installation process was completed in just two days, and the shop immediately began to see savings on its energy bills. The owner reported a 25% reduction in costs.
By going solar, the coffee shop also attracted more customers who appreciated its eco-friendly approach, leading to increased foot traffic.
“Solar power has not only saved us money but also brought in more customers,” said the shop owner.
