The project
Nutrapharm's decision to power its manufacturing facility with solar is not just an energy strategy; it is a statement of values.
The brief
A manufacturing facility to be powered off-grid, with the safety and reliability that continuous production demands.
What we built
An 880 kWp off-grid solar PV system designed around an 860 kWh containerised Hubble battery energy storage system, chosen for its uncompromising approach to safety and reliability. The container integrates automatic fire detection and suppression, HVAC, and cell-level battery management, so the system performs and protects around the clock.
The result
Commissioned in September 2025, the system supplies the facility independently of the grid.
