Jalco

Jalco: One of NZ's leading wood processors

Wood processing is an electricity intensive industry and Jalco came to ZEN Energy Systems seeking a cost-effective rooftop solar power (PV) system to offset its high power bills and reduce their carbon emissions to improve their environmental sustainability.

‍ZEN conducted site visits and detailed analysis of Jalco’s electricity consumption patterns across each day over the whole calendar year. It matched this usage with the solar generation forecasts of ZEN’s solar design software to ensure a system size which was optimised for Jalco’s exact needs.

“First and foremost ZEN provided a system which met our needs – substantially reducing our power bill and carbon footprint and at our budget. But we were also impressed with their regular communication, consistently following up and keeping us fully informed throughout the process – even helping us secure a better deal on our power!” —Leyton Dowman, Managing Director, Jalco Ltd
