Some of you might have noticed work being done on our roof as you drive down Anderson Road. We're finally getting solar installed!

Aotea Solar is installing 75 pannels which will give us 33KW of electricity. This will provide 20% of our power needs. Brewing is a very energy intensive activity, so anywhere we can source, or use energy in a more sustainable way is good for us, the community, and the planet.

When we commissioned our brewery, we went with fully electric, so the plan was alway to be able to generate or recapture energy. We're always looking for ways to drive efficiency, and reduce our overall impact.

We're also going to be installing a CO2 recapturing system over the next few months which will capture the CO2 from our ferments so we'll be able to use this for carbonating our beer & kombucha.
